Elderly couple wins at Wii Bowling tournament in wholesome gaming moment
You may remember the Wii being marketed as a console for everyone and it seems that motto is still going strong.
Over the weekend an elderly couple competed in a Wii Bowling tournament in France and won.
Jeanine (96) and Gilbert (85) competed representing their retirement home at a Wii Bowling LAN hosted by Gamers Assembly.
Wii Bowling was, of course, one of the handful of minigames included in Wii Sports, a pack-in game launched along with the console.
Now, a wholesome clip of the pair winning has been shared by esports reporter Jake Lucky.
The video sees Jeanine lining up her final shot before nailing a perfect strike. The crowd goes wild! It's adorable!
