What the Wii's got

In this dog eat dog world of video games, the most important question of what console to buy. Like Jukey said your main choices are the PS3, Xbox 360, and the Wii. Nintendo has said that the Wii is not a next-gen console like the Xbox 360 and PS3, but instead a console that reaches a new consumer, the casual gamer. Make no mistake however, that the Wii is intended for everyone not just new-comers, but the hard core gamer as well. Why do we like the Wii, what makes the Wii really stand out. Its innovation, its style and its reinvention.



-Innovation refers to the Wii-mote as the controller is known. It provides a new way to play your favorite games as well as giving rise to a whole new genre of games.

-Style refers to Nintendo's new aproach to the concept of video games. They are trying something new.

-Reinvention is how enormously different the Wii is from anything ever before it. In the past there had been specialty controllers, such as a steering wheel for a racing game, or a gun for a shooter, but never has an entire system revolved around a new idea for the controller.
