Product Information
Designed for kids ages five to 95, the revolutionary Nintendo Wii isn't just
a next-generation system — it's an all-generation system. The innovative minds
at Nintendo discovered that the evolution of gaming has made video games very
complex, and those who once enjoyed playing games with their entire families
have become alienated. The Wii is pronounced "we" for a reason — it symbolizes
Nintendo's driving philosophy: this system is for everyone. Whether you're a
hardcore gamer, a casual player or a grandparent who'd like to play a game with
your grandchild, the Wii will provide you with a wondrous experience that
returns gaming to simpler times while also defining a new age of game
development.
In addition to amazingly realistic next-generation graphics and a variety of
outstanding titles to choose from, the true magic of the Wii starts right in the
palm of your hand — the controller. The unique Wii Remote controller is wireless
and motion-sensitive, allowing you to use everyday motions to simulate the
motions in your game. The Nunchuk controller attaches to the Wii Remote and uses
an analog stick along with motion-sensing technology to assist in character
movement. Imagine yourself in the thrilling world of Wii Sports, the awesome,
action-packed sports game included with your Wii console. Using your Wii Remote
controller, you'll chase down powerful tennis serves, add touch to your golf
swing to avoid tricky sand traps, overpower speeding fastballs to knock them out
of the baseball park and more. The Wii Channel Menu, which is the first screen
that will appear on your TV, provides a simple user interface that includes the
Video Console Channel, News Channel, Forecast Channel, Photo Channel, Internet
Channel, Wii Message Board and the Wii Shop Channel. Using the Mii Channel, you
can even create playable caricatures of yourself called Miis that you can use in
a variety of Wii applications. With an innovative motion-sensitive controller
and the Wii Channel Menu, the Wii will truly make you feel less like just a
player and more like you're really part of the game.
