I have been under the impression that the Wii is more family friendly than the Xbox 360 or Play Station 3, but now I'm not so sure. I was recently surfing the internet when I came upon a couple of questionable games. The first game wasn't that big of surprise for me. It was Cursed Mountain, and basically teaches kids all about buddhism. Yay! It is a horror game or something designed specifically for the Wii. "Players will immerse themselves in the local Buddhist traditions and rituals" and is "designed to mimic the physical aspects of sacred prayer rituals, mantras, and gestures of Buddhism" Okay, it is rated M for mature, meaning that you have to be over 17 to buy the game, but realistically, 10 year old kids will be playing this game, learning how to be little buddhists.
The second game shocked me completely. It is a WiiWare game entitled Sexy Poker. WiiWare means that the game is downloaded off of the Wii's Wi-Fi network. It's basically strip poker with anime girls. The biggest complaint from people is that they only strip down to their underwear. I don't even know what to say about that game, but I do know that Nintendo isn't the family friendly company that they advertise themselves to be. At least not for any family that has Christian morals and values. In conclusion, parents have to supervise their childrens' video games even if they are on a Wii.
