Post UK tabloid reports that the Queen loves the Wii (Joystiq)

Filed under:


Good news, Nintendo Defense Force -- the most powerful member of the British royal family just joined your ranks. According to The People, a weekly British tabloid, Queen Elizabeth II has been on a Wii Sports bender ever since her grandson, Prince William, received Nintendo's console for Christmas (or, for our friends reading this across the pond, the day before Boxing Day).

According to the rather journalistically unsound article, Her Majesty the "QWiiN" (sigh) is quite the gadget savvy monarch, owning an iPod, blackberry, and fully pimped-out mobile phone, so her interest in the Wii is not so unnatural. We wish the Queen the best of luck in finding her own system -- we hear those things are harder to find than ... wait, there's nothing harder to find than a Wii. Except two Wiis, we guess.

(Thanks to everyone who sent this in!)
