Wii Systems
The geniuses at Nintendo have done it again. While the developers at Sony and Microsoft were busy upgrading and making changes to their current systems, the people at Nintendo were developing something truly innovative and revolutionary. Much like they did in the early 80’s, the developers at Nintendo have once again turned the gaming world up-side down with the new Nintendo Wii.
About the only thing that the PS3 and the XBOX 360 have over the Wii systems is the fact that they boast higher resolutions. True to their overall goal though, developers at Nintendo successfully created a game system that is designed to be played not watched. While the graphics do hold their own with the other systems, the point to owning a Nintendo Wii is to play it.
Instead of simply adding or improving features of older systems like other companies often do, Nintendo has given fans a completely new system, with numerous new features and innovations.
Perhaps the most revolutionary aspect of Nintendo’s Wii systems is their price. Unlike the systems offered by Nintendo’s competitors, the Wii is a much more affordable system at under $250. A large game library along with some of the industry’s most recognizable characters help to put the Wii at the top of the market when it comes to purchasing new titles for the system.
In addition to affordable cost of the system and the variety of titles to choose from, Wii systems also feature a multitude of features and innovations that work to make the system more gamer-friendly and amazingly interactive. In fact, most owners would agree that Nintendo’s Wii systems give users a game-playing experience unlike any they have ever had with other systems.
Part of what makes the Wii more interactive than any other system available is the fact that is uses wireless controllers and sensors for its games. With the built-in wireless capabilities, and controllers that are meant to be held in both hands, users can take control of their game characters like never before. Using the Wii Remote in combination with the Wii Nunchuk, players can simultaneously move a character with one hand, and use the character’s weapons with the other.
Sports games on the Wii are also played in a more interactive way. Gone are the days of pressing a button to make a digital baseball player swing a bat or throw a baseball. With the Wii’s wireless features, players can actually swing the Wii Remote to cause their on-screen character to swing a bat. Boxing games on the Wii also allow players to actually punch while the play the game by simply holding both controllers and literally punching in the direction of the remote sensor bar.
In addition to the interactive nature of its Wii systems, Nintendo has also made it possible for users to play their old Nintendo Gamecube titles on the Wii, as well as giving users the opportunity to download games from previous Nintendo systems through the Wii Shop Channel.
With revolutionary new controllers, downloadable content, technical specs that compete with any other game system, the largest game catalog in the gaming industry, an affordable price, the ability to access and download content, even its very own web browser, and some of the industry's most recognizable characters, Nintendo Wii systems do more than hold their own with the competition, in fact, they blow the competition clear out of the water.
