Nintendo Wii Game Reviews - Comparisons

By: Dee Cohen.

The Nintendo Wii does very well despite competition with Xbox 360 and Playstation. They reached out to the popular audience and not just to gamers and their controller is very well liked. Baby boomers are more familiar with a remote control rather than a joy stick and buttons and the company kept this in mind. Yet the technique was a new one so experienced gamers did not have an edge. By having the control use a new swinging motion, everyone had to learn this and thus new gamers were not at a disadvantage when playing with others. This was a different technology so everyone was equal in the competition.

The menu of the Nintendo Wii Console is quite interesting. Not only is there the game you play but you can interact on the web with people, do email and check out their various channels. They update them and have added both weather and shopping. Often people don't check on updates but this is important to do.

They have recently updated the address book. Look as well at the message icons, see what's new in your message history and also there is a more facile way to add friends.

You can check out older games by Nintendo and earn points to get them. This includes finding Nintendo 64 and Super Nintendo. Yeah they are a bit out of date but that's what makes them fun and classics.

Nintendo also keeps adding on channels which is a treat. They obviously know that they are competing with Xbox and Playstation and want to keep a strong edge. It was obvious this Christmas when you couldn't find Guitar Hero III for Wii though you could get it for Playstation and Xbox 360 with a bit of searching. However, checking at a number of malls it seemed the wii version of guitar hero iii wireless was just flying off the shelves and one couldn't count on finding it on time for the holidays.

By utilizing both innovation as well as appealing to all ages plus adding in channels enabling interaction, Nintendo Wii has reached a high level of popularity and keeps people curious for the latest updates and new releases.
