Nintendo announced their new console yesterday.

And im tickled by the idea of a golf game on it

These are just tech games, like Wii Sports. But imagine the possibilities

In other video game golf news Hot Shots Golf for the PS3 is getting Move Support this summer. Love those games!

The thing with the controller on the ground to make it look like a fried-egg lie in the bunker was pretty cool, but I've heard that the console is supposed to be $350-$400, and you have to imagine those controllers are going to be pretty pricey themselves. Add that to the fact that I don't see myself using most of the features that they show in that video, and at this point it looks like I am not going to buy a Wii U. This may be where I draw the technological line.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

While the screen in the controller looks cool, that thing is fricking huge! Do you really want to play video games with that thing?  Cool tech, but not for me.


Wii U!

Not one media outlet or person that has played it at E3 has complained about the controller. They all say it feels great. Not worried.

    • Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.
    • Day 9: 2/16/25 Putting through 50 mm gates from 11”. Swing pressure shift drills.
    • Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.
    • Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.
