Nintendo Wii Console

After doing a little research, this is what I found. The hardware is housed in a unit that's considerably smaller than that of the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. The Wii unit weighs in at 3 lbs, making it the supermodel-light of the three. For storage, it's easy to stack right next to your TV, speaker or component system, since the console itself can be stored either vertically or horizontally. The front-loading optical media drive accommodates both the 12cm Nintendo Wii discs and the 8cm GameCube discs. In terms of looks, it comes in a variety of colors, including red, lime green, silver, white and black.

Nintendo is one of the top innovators when it comes to Nintendo Wii accessories such as controllers and its designs have become a much sought-after industry standard. Wii comes complete with a two-in-one controller - that is, a Nunchuk and a Wiimote - but you might want more for two-player games like boxing or tennis. The Wii can accommodate four controllers, but get an extra nunchuk for $20 and another Wiimote for $40 to maximize your gaming experience.

The controller is revolutionary and offers a motion-sensitive play option that lets you punch, drive, swing or do most required actions using movements from your wrist instead of just plain pushing a button. Of the three top contenders for gameplay kingship, Nintendo offers the most uncommon gameplay. Another attractive feature I liked were the retro-games. Its library includes some of the most nostalgic classic favorites from both Sega and Nintendo itself, so every member of the family, young and old, can expect something different.

You can buy Nintendo Wii online at retailers like www.amazon.com and ebay.com where you can compare prices from one store to another. Prices range anywhere from $250 to over $400, depending on what's included in the bundle, checkout our store for example. Whenever or wherever you decide to buy your Nintendo Wii Console, just know that for the price, quality is top notch.
