Livin' up to the hype

Wait, what hype? Oh, thats right, there wasn't much. Unlike MS and Sony, Nintendo stands by the product, without the hype. One thing you have to respect from them. Anyway, this system is much better than I was expecting. With the option of the Virtual Console, the library is tripling. New games every week, and these are the ones I grew up with. Brilliant way to pull in the older gamers, Nintendo! By far a much needed kick in the pants for Nintendo. They are back on top.

wii rocks

INTRO:Nintendo have been around for so many years and really took gaming to another level with its console and it became the brand of choice for gamers way back in the 80s and 90s.Now things have changed Nintendo are competing against two other forces in the gaming industry,namely Sony and Microsoft who went towards more "mature" appealing games.With the buzz about the new consoles the XBOX 360 and the PS3,Nintendo had to deliver something unique,something different.With the Wii Nintendo hopes to reach the non-gamer and casual gamer market,wich they did so far. WHATS NEW?:The Wii inovates with its controls as you really make the move,best exemple would be Wii sports included with the Wii,it makes your gamer at home do some exercices while having some fun.Nintendo Wii can appeal to nearly anyone from the 3 year old kid to the seventy-eight years old grandmother.Its a unique system to say the least that is fun and original as well as full of options for exemple you can buy a classic controler if you don`t like the Wiimote. LIVE CHANNEL:The Live Channel allows you to buy classic games from the NES,SNES,N64 wich adds to the console.Playing a classic like Super Mario 64 on a new console is great.You have to buy point cards to buy games but its worth the bucks you will spend,the library of games ainvailable continues to grow,playing the first Zelda again is fun,the points varies like a game can be 1000 points. GAMES:A few good games were launched and great ones keep coming.Zelda Twilight Princess proves to be the best selling game of the Wii so far,Rayman Raving Rabids and Wario Ware Smooth Moves are fun and original games making great use of the Wiimote.It is also to not that the Nintendo Wii comes with a game.Wii Sports is creative and fun and for a game that comes with a console it proves to be a winner,with games like Wii Boxing,Tennis,Golf,Baseball,Bowling that you never get tired of,its a great party game.I don`t like the fact that tere nearly aren`t any mature games(17+)wich the PS3 and 360 support,thats what is lacking to the Wii. GRAPHICS:Cannot compare to the PS3 or XBOX 360 at all.The graphics are a little better than the Gamecube to be honnest,thats a minus to the Wii.The graphics of the Wii are simple but cool,but if youre looking NEXT-GEN visuals this is not your buy. OVERRAL:The future of the Wii seems to be great as the console is always sold-out.Wii is fun,inovative and easy to get used to.A must-buy for anyone,even if its a second console.Easily the choice for partys and multiplayer,not yet an online tought.Maybe the Wii is not a DVD,HD-DVD or Blue-Ray player,graphics but it is surely the console that is the most fun!

Fun...Boring

The Wii is the first system with interactive controls, which may seem cool......at first. Games:Most of the games are reasonable but they get boring very soon. When you buy the Wii you get Wii Sports which includes Boxing, golfing, tennis, etc. Some of the other games may seem rather childish to the more mature players but, the Wii does have some good games like Zelda: Twilight Princess and..uh...that's about it. Hopefully, later this year the Wii will have better games. Graphics: The games look pretty good but not great. Hopefully in the future they will make the graphics better as well. Overall: Pretty good system. OK games. Alright graphics.

Excellent little system.

This is the system to beat. While it doesn't have 720p+ graphics, what it does have is a truly next gen controller, super small footprint, 480p wide screen output, excellent old school downloads, and Mario & Zelda. All of that puts it over the top for me.

Crappy online?

Nintendo is going to own this christmas, but what worries me is that the gamecube had no online at all so how are they going to know what to do for the wii's online? I just hope it isn't like Diamond and Pearl where you have to have friend codes. That sucked. And I hope that the headset for the wii isn't like the one for the DS, you know, so small it makes your ear hurt after 5 minutes. Oh well, at least it's free.

wii just want 2 hav fun!

Unlike most people i dont judge a system on graphix,online capability and dvd play back(though those are important to). I judge it on how fun it is. I think the controls on the Wii are very cool but its kinda hard to get used to. For instance Wii sports is pretty easy but when you go to play a game like red steel its a little harder to get used to.Thats why I gave it a 4.75. i know its kinda short but thats all i got to say.

Wii

The Wii may be a cool motion senseitive system, but it's graphics aren't all that cool. You could be playing for a while thinking it's fun to play and don't care about the graphics much. Well, they don't looks so great when you're playing it.
