"Wii Tennis" vs. The Fence

Epic Match-Up: The headliner of Nintendo's Wii Sports, "Wii Tennis" pitted against what keeps your dead leaves from mingling with the Robinson's dead leaves.


INTRODUCTION
I hardly need to detail the reasons for this match-up. For ages, fences and "Wii Tennis" [editor's note: if you put chapters of a book in quotes, do you put a mode of play in a video game in quotes?] have been eager to get at each other like two rottweilers on either side of a "Wii Tennis". Or a fence, if that's more your style. I hope to once and for all put an end to the debate that has swept the nation like Nash vs. Kobe, Vanilla vs. Chocolate, Ocarina of Time vs. Rapelay.

THE CASE FOR THE FENCE
The fence, as the old saying goes, is as old as the border. That age gives it experience. Need two things divided? Need something to look over? Have a floppy hat, sage advice, and an acting role on Home Improvement? Then you need a fence. Fences can be made of any number of materials, such as wood, steel, lazers, or poor level design.

Most importantly, good fences make good neighbors. And really, what tastes better than a good neighbor?

THE CASE FOR "WII TENNIS"
As I'm sure about a gazillion different gaming blogs (This links to what scientists believe to be the worst blog ever, covering that topic), Wii Tennis has changed gaming. What can be more hands-on [without actually being hands-on]? The gaming is first boiled down to its component parts: we've got natural menus, simple character design, and intuitive gameplay. Then, the game is built up from that foundation. Spin, shot placement, serve stratagems, and (most importantly) real-life verbal intimidation are layered on to create the ultimate product.

Finally, what can a fence do that a bunch of posts jammed into the ground can't?

THE CONCLUSION
Fences. I have it on good authority, they will never break your TV.
