While Americaās current leaders have only discussed but never been photographed playing video games, weāve got photographic proof of the U.K.ās deputy prime minister, Nick Clegg, using a Wii sans wrist strap.
Clegg played a Wii game ā possibly Wii Sports Resort, given press reports that he scored a pair of bullseyes in archery ā on Monday at a Liberal Democrat party conference in Liverpool.
Caution is thrown to the wind here, as he ignores using the Wii wrist strap.
His score, and that of other Liberal Democrats, posted on the wall.
Public displays of gaming by our nationsā leaders are still rare. Unlike TV-watching, or music-listening, however, gaming isnāt an act you can necessarily assume they do or have a clue about. A photo here or there helps.
