How often should I do push-ups.?

My pecs are somewhat developed. Although I answer more than I ask in this topic, I came across a situation where I thought it's my turn to ask.

How often should I do push-ups? I do bench presses from time to time, but push-ups are more frequent. I just got the Wii and the WiiFit today, and I think it turned me into a push-up addict.

Goal: To get more upper body muscle mass. At the same time, I don't over-bulk myself that I'll have difficulty reaching my back. I still want to preserve force and speed.

If I have any details missing, let me know and I'll fill it in ASAP.
