My kids' mother (who lived overseas) won a contest. She didn't win a Wii, she one the opportunity to buy a Wii. She sent it to them for Christmas, and twenty years later I don't think I have ever seen them so excited.
For about a year, we played Rockband (especially the Beatles version) for an hour every day. We had the Rockband 3 keyboard, and one of the kids decided that he'd like to learn the piano. Twenty years later and a B.Mus. and M.Mus. later, we just attended the premiere of his musical (not, not a big one, but still...) in Toronto.
His career literally wouldn't have happened without the Wii.
