Wow Its Nintendo Wii

Gaming was created to be accessible and fun to people of all ages and abilities, and was inviting as well as being sophisticated. The Nintendo Wii has a compact design that makes a natural addition to any entertainment setup. One of Wiis drawing factors is the remote control and its motion-sensing technology to entice people of all ages. The remote could be your steering wheel, a tennis racket, or a weapon depending upon your game of choice.

The Nintendo Wii is more than about gaming it features a compact design that makes it a natural addition to any television setup. The Wii is backward-compatable to all Nintendo GameCube games and includes four ports for controllers and two slots for memory cards. A self-loading bay plays single or double-layered 12 cm optical discs for the Wii console, as well as 8 cm Nintendo GameCube discs. Relatively small about the size of 3 DVD cases stacked up on top of each other, and it can be laid out flat or in style by the use of the console stand. The Wii console communicates wirelessly with the Internet via wireless or a Wii LAN adaptor, and can communicate via wireless technology with the Nintendo DS.

The Nunchuk builds on the simplicity of the Wii Remote and goes an extra step to meet the needs of gamers. The Nunchuk connects to the Wii Remote via the expansion port and is used in conjunction with the Wii Remote. In many of the games the players will use the analog stick of the Nunchuk to move characters, and perform specific actions. Both the Wii Remote and Nunchuk are somewhat dependent on each other, and therefore allowing players to hold them in either hand. This grants accessibility seldom seen in other game controllers.

The Wii uses Bluetooth technology and allows you to stand as far as 30 feet away, and up to four Wii Remotes can be connected at once. The Classic Controller which is sold separately allows the player to play classic games available through the Wii Shop Channel.

Wii console revolutionizes how games are played, and will provide an offering of a variety of entertainment, information and communication channels. The Wii menu allows for integration among the entertainment lives of each family. For fun, the Wii Remote can be personalized by a fun 3-D character called a Mii, and Miis can be stored in the Remote, and then transported to a friends house to be played on another Wii.

Potentially the Wii has a bright future. The cost will be an advantage over other systems, such as Ps3 and Xbox 360. Another major advantage is the appeal to normal or classic gamers. The Wii Remote with the Nunchuk is the catch for the non-gaming market, providing for a fun and interactive physical game, as if you were the action on the monitor.

The graphics are lacking to some degree, and have been compared to the original Xbox which werent very well liked. Between the Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii the games on the Wii look bad to the human eyes. Gamers want the graphics to look as real as possible. In time these graphics will become available. The more knowledge gained then more work will be done to achieve better graphics.

Overall the Nintendo Wii is a good source of entertainment, and its future looks bright. Nintendo is all about fun, and thats the Wii, fun, engaging, and even gets a person up and moving around while still in the living room.

                               Kevin Sites in the Hot Zone - TEHRAN -- From the choir loft, a haunting aria rises and falls through an air thick with ceremony and incense. At the altar, candles illuminate a large painting of the Madonna and Child. It is nearly midnight on New Year's Eve, yet it is standing room only at St. Sarkis Church in downtown Tehran.
