The Nintendo Wii is the new phenomena in the world. Ever since the well waited and anticipated release of the game system in November 19, 2007 (in America) it has been literally selling like hotcakes off of the shelves.
I myself own one of the amazing consoles. I have heard comments from people like "How could something be next gen with last gen graphics," meaning how can something be new with old looks, but the whole thing about the new Nintendo system is the amazing game play and style of use. Of course like many other consoles the controllers are wireless (this isn't a big deal now-a-days) but the fact that the movement of your hand are what control you character is what makes it so amazing.
I love playing my new Zelda game and slashing away back and forth at the enemies that have dared set forth into the path of my own unique and animated Link. Another great use of the system is the wireless connectivity, the new console uses Wi-Fi, a form of internet connectivity in which you wirelessly are connected to the internet (explains itself doesn't it). I enjoy the whole mii channel section, where you create a mii character, also known as an avatar to people of the more anime part of the world and most of them look quite like the real people. I often enter my mii's into contest in the Check mii out channel, the whole Nintendo Wii concept is a good idea and yes I do envy my friends with the Xbox 360 but never PS3's.
Overall Rating
8.5 out of 10
Main reason for the 8.5 out of 10 is that truly the graphics lack greatly when compared to such systems like PS3 and Xbox 360.
