Even The Queen likes playing video games - on the Wii to be precise. The 81-year-old royal reportedly moved in on Prince William's Christmas gift from girlfriend Kate Middleton - and had the Royal Family in stitches as she took control of a controller.
The fun started on Christmas Day when the Queen saw William playing a game on Nintendo's sought-after $400 machine after lunch and asked to join in.
A palace source told Britain's Daily Record newspaper: "It was hilarious. William was in fits of laughter.
"She played a simple 10-pin bowling game and, by all accounts, was a natural. His only difficulty now is prising it away from the Queen's clutches."
The source added: "Although she is 81, the Queen's hand-eye co-ordination was as good as somebody half her age.
"William loves his gadgets and boys' toys so it was the perfect present for him.
"And he is enormously impressed that he has such a cool grandmother."
The Queen - who has reigned over the United Kingdom for a whopping 55 years, is quite the gadget hound - she already has a BlackBerry and an iPod and regularly upgrades her mobile phone to one with all the latest features. She also regularly uses her own computer and has an email address.
The Palace source added: "They are pretty much the rarest phone numbers and email addresses in the world.
"Anybody who has those in their contacts list is very lucky."
