So… bloody hell… it turns out the Queen herself is apparently a fan of gaming.
If the (usually) accurate UberFacts twitter account is anything to go by.
Queen Elizabeth II was a big fan of the Nintendo Wii.
After Kate Middleton gave one to Prince William for Christmas in 2008, she watched him play and wanted to join in.

The question out of all this is that, way back in 2008, what was the game that tempted Liz to get on the Wii remote?
We did a little bit of Googling and these were the must have games leading into that year’s Christmas.
Chances are, Lizzie was hammering out one of these.
- SimCity Creator
- Wario Land: Shake It!
- LEGO Batman: The Videogame
- NBA Live 09 All-Play
- Dokapon Kingdom
- Cooking Mama: World Kitchen
- Spider-Man: Web of Shadows
- Guitar Hero World Tour
- FIFA Soccer 09 All-Play
- SPRay
- Call of Duty: World at War
- Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party
- Star Wars: The Clone Wars — Lightsaber Duels
- Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World
- Animal Crossing: City Folk
- Shaun White Snowboarding: Road Trip
- Castlevania Judgment
- Rock Band 2
- Sonic Unleashed
- Rygar: The Battle of Argus
Our money’s on Cooking Mama: World Kitchen… seeing she’s probably never cooked a meal in her life, she’s probably wondering what all the fuss is about?
Although, the thought of Her Majesty banging out some Lightsaber Duels certainly does create a visual.
