It was called “Nintendo Revolution.” Nintendo Wii is the Nintendo Version that plays NTSC and encodes any disc format. With its cool look, the latest Japanese console is made of top-notch materials and comes with a compact, witty design.
Nintendo has taken on the approach of improving its entire system and not just taking from what their competition released. The Nintendo Wii controller that is special-motion sensitive.
The difference is that you can punch, drive or strike a sword by turning your wrist instead of pushing the button.
Its size is three DVD cases piled atop another. It is available in a silver stand, enabling the system to be displayed horizontally or vertically.
If you have been a Nintendo fan over the years, this console can play games compatible with the Nintendo GameCube. It can also download fan-favorite titles from the past 20 years for Nintendo 64 and Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).
The Wii costs at around $250. This rate is cheaper than the Microsoft Xbox 360 and way cheaper than Sony PlayStation 3. The packaging of the Nintendo Wii includes a sports game that is quite addictive. That alone will let you feel first-hand what the system’s controller is all about.
In recent news, Nintendo Wii has outsold Sony’s PlayStation 3. Both components were released toward the end of the year (the former was available mid-November while the latter in mid-December).
There was a speculation that PlayStation 3 will be the best-selling game console all over the world. Unfortunately, that didn't happen.
Nintendo has managed to ship 4 million Wii’s worldwide on December 31. That is twice the number of PlayStation 3's promised to deliver. As 2006 closed down, Nintendo had already sold 600,000 Wii eight days after it debuted on November 19.
It could be the price. Nintendo Wii can be purchased at $250 whereas a Sony PlayStation 3 costs $600.
If all these have sparked your interest, you can buy Nintendo Wii in your local stores. You can also buy them online – www.amazon.com and www.bestbuy.com. You can compare prices from one store to another. Some sell them cheaper than the standard price.
By buying it on eBay, you also get a discount. That depends though whether you’re willing to go for a second-hand console.
However anyway you decide to get it, seems like Nintendo has managed to do well with this system.
