Experts in the gaming industry all agree that the Nintendo Wii console has revolutionized the console gaming industry. The Wii utilizes game mechanics that are completely different from any other console currently in the market, and this has put it at the top of the desirables list when it comes to console games. It is, of course, not enough to simply develop a good gaming system. The Wii games that Nintendo has developed for its console are also excellent, allowing players to truly live through interactive gaming experiences.

Wii games such as Wii Sports, the Mario franchise, and other enormously popular Wii games all top the wish lists of many console gamers. All of these games make excellent use of the motion sensing capabilities of the Wii controllers, giving players control through their physical motions instead of simply through pressing buttons.

Many gamers have found that this method of gameplay is much more engaging than the previous ‘button mashing’ concept embraced by other consoles such as the Xbox and PlayStation. This has led to Nintendo Wii games quickly becoming the most highly demanded games in the gaming market. Many electronics stores report jumps in sales every time new Wii games are released, and they often sell out within the first few days of hitting store shelves. That has led to a problem for many consumers, however, who have difficulty finding Wii games in stock in stores.

Finding the Wii fit in stock, in particular, is especially difficult. This is because the Wii fit includes a balance board and other components, making it decidedly more time-consuming to manufacture than most games, which only need to be programmed then written onto discs before being sold. Nintendo has found it difficult to keep the Wii fit in stock in stores, with the Wii fit backordered at many stores and no sign of a slowdown in demand.

Why is the Wii fit so popular?

The answer is simply that there is no other game on the console gaming market that does the same thing that the Wii fit does. Thus consumer demand is entirely concentrated on this one product, instead of being spread out across several similar products. If you are hoping to find the Wii fit in stock at a physical store, then you would have to be very lucky indeed to find one. Most physical stores, even small specialty gaming stores that less people know about, have found it difficult to keep the Wii fit in stock.

There are places, however, that you can still be sure to find the Wii fit in stock. This is where the Wii Compare site comes in, as it tells you all of the online stores that are known to still have the Wii fit in stock. It will also tell you the price at which the Wii fit is being sold by each store, so you can more easily decide which store to patronize.

In a world where video games seemingly outnumber ants, it’s easy to question the need for a new console model.The audio already seems as full as it can possibly get, and the graphics as sharp as they can be, and the action as realistic as it can get.And that’s why Nintendo’s brain trust, in 2001, started taking a whole new approach toward the design of game consoles.Nintendo watched as every newly introduced console grew more powerful than its predecessors, and they came to the realization that competing against all these high-powered machines was going to be tough.Instead, they decided that a console that focused on player interaction could fill a void in a sea of consoles focused on speed and performance.It was with that strategy in mind that the idea for the Nintendo Wii consoles was born.

Graphics and speed aren’t the factors responsible for taking the Nintendo Wii console to the top of the market.Instead, it is Wii’s revolutionary control system that has differentiated it from its predecessors and competitors.Because the Nintendo Wii allows players to control their games with movements (such as swipes, swings and gestures), it has wedded existing game concepts to an incredible interactive gaming experience.For instance, if you’re playing tennis on Wii Games you don’t use a joystick to swing the racket, you instead swing your arm, the one that holds the Wii controller (also known as the Wiimote).This principle holds for every other game designed for a Nintendo Wii console.

The Nintendo Wii consoles can also play non-Wii games.In fact, they even work for playing Nintendo GameCube games.

Another impressive feature of the Nintendo Wii consoles is that they can interface with the Internet, if you use a Wi-Fi USB connector.Online, the Nintendo Wii console lets you surf or shop the Web, read the news and weather report, chat on message boards, and even download video game classics like Donkey Kong.

In a few short years the Nintendo engineers have transformed their visions into realities.The Nintendo Wii console is a game system that doesn’t try to keep up with the Joneses, but instead stands in a class by itself.And the video game industry has been transformed forever.

The Nintendo Wii Revolution

The Nintendo Wii represents a groundbreaking new development in interactive gaming and has helped to sell more Playstation and XBox mames consoles too.

The Unique Nintendo Wii

The Nintendo Wii utilises a unique control system for unparalleled interaction with a wide range of innovative games. The ergonomic Wii remote uses a three-axis motion sensor to detect physical movement and translate them into control commands. Why press a button when you can make the action yourself; the Wii remote becomes your table tennis paddle, golf club, steering wheel, drumstick and sword, letting you control your gaming experience as if you are really participating in the event itself. A range of optional add-ons for the Wii controller such as gun, tennis racket and baseball bat attachments add even more realism to this interactive experience.
Combine the Wii remote with the innovative Nunchuk control to take this interaction even further; gain two-handed control, wield both sword and shield in adventure games and get an even more immersive experience out of sporting games.

Wii Connect 24

With WiiConnect24 you can use the Ninetendo Wii for more than just paying games. WiiConnect24 keeps you connected to the internet even when the power is off, downloading new content and delivering unique new experiences everyday. The Wii Message Board utilises WiiConnect24 to help you keep in touch with friends, relatives and other Wii users the world over; you can even receive messages from the games you are playing, adding a new depth to the interactive experience provided by the Wii.

Entertainment & Media

Wii Channels is a content menu, divided into ‘Channels’, that uses WiiConnect24 to extend the interactive capabilities of the Nintendo Wii. Keep up to date with the latest news and weather forecasts with news and weather channels, create a photo channel with personalised images to share with family and friends, stay in touch with the Wii Message Board Channel and settle disputes with the Everybody Votes Channel. A Wii Shop Channel gives you access to games for the Virtual Console feature (see below), software updates and additional Wii channels.
A Virtual Console feature provides downloadable access to classic favourites from the NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Sega Mega Drive, NEOGEO and TurboGrafx games consoles. A Classic Controller is available to provide the ultimate in nostalgic gaming experiences (sold separately).

Wii Connectivity

The Nintendo Wii can connect to the internet via Wi-Fi connectivity (IEEE 802.11b/g) or an optional Ethernet LAN adaptor. Two USB 2.0 ports provide connections for a range of peripheral accessories and compatible devices.
Bluetooth technology allows up to four Wii remotes to be connected wirelessly. Wireless communication is also possible between the Nintendo Wii and the Nintendo DS hand-held system.

Wii Accessories

A host of creative accessories help to further enhance the unique levels of interaction provided by the Nintendo Wii. The Wii Zapper combines the Wii remote and Nunchuk controllers in a single housing to add unrivalled depth to first person combat games while the Wii Wheel and Wii Balance Board put you right in the thick of racing and sports games.
The Wii LAN Adapter attaches to the Wii via USB to provide internet access for any Wii users that do not have a wireless internet connection.

Other Wii Features

The Nintendo Wii features 512 MB of internal flash memory that can be expanded via a SD memory card bay. Nintendo Wi-Fi provides a fast, free and safe way to play games online with other Wii users. All you need is an existing internet connection.

The ever changing video game industry took a giant leap when Nintendo released the Wii in late 2006. Unlike previous video game releases from Nintendo, and others, the Wii’s distinguishing features were not improved graphics, or faster game speed, or any of the countless other innovations that have dotted the gaming landscape. Instead, Nintendo’s Wii has ushered in a new way to play video games with its revolutionary control system.

The controller of the Wii system is a hand-held, wireless remote control that has the ability to sense movements in all directions. Instead of using a traditional joystick, players move, point, swing, and gesture with the remote control, and those movements are detected by infrared sensors on the game console. The result is an interactive gaming experience that can not be had on any game system, especially when you are playing games for the Nintendo Wii because they are designed to take full advantage of all that the Wii has to offer.

Wii Sports is a game that features five game simulations – tennis, golf, baseball, boxing, and bowling – and the natural movements in sports make for a great platform for the Wii to strut its stuff, so it should come as no surprise that Nintendo included Wii Sports with each purchase of a Wii system. However, it is the games for Nintendo Wii that are not included with the game system that continue to drive people to the stores and online retailers.

At the top of the list of games for Nintendo Wii is Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which is the latest in a series of Zelda games, but the first that is compatible with the Wii system. Launched alongside the Wii, Zelda allows loyal fans to continue their adventures in ways that only the Wii can allow. Medal of Honor: Vanguard is another new release of an old favorite. Medal of Honor continues its realistic World War II “shoot em” action, while in another release everyone’s favorite hedgehog makes his Wii debut in Sonic and the Secret Rings.

Hardcore gamers consider one of the best games for Nintendo Wii to be WarioWare: Smooth Moves. Considered to be an ideal platform for all the Wii can do, WarioWare is another game that continues on an existing series. WarioWare relies on a series of microgames – games based on simple movements that can often last only a few seconds each. The player is given rapid game scenarios with instructions that hint at the required action. Making the correct movements allows the player to move on to the next game, whereas too many mistakes will force the player to start over. The concept of movements as the key to success makes this one of the most ideal games for Nintendo Wii.

Countless new games for Nintendo Wii are sure to hit the market, especially as the popularity of the game platform is growing. Regardless of the theme of the game, the unique controller is sure to make all future games for the Nintendo Wii unlike anything one could play with any other gaming system.

In a world full of video games one could easily wonder why anyone would need a new model. Sometimes it seems that the graphics can not get any sharper, the sounds any fuller, and the game play any more realistic. Perhaps that reality is one of the reasons that, in 2001, the brain trust at Nintendo began to contemplate taking game consoles in a new direction. After seeing powerful console after powerful console flood the market, Nintendo realized that it was difficult to compete in a market full of heavyweight, high powered machines. Instead, they decided that a console that focused on player interaction could fill a void in a sea of consoles focused on speed and performance. It was with that strategy in mind that the idea for the Nintendo Wii consoles was born.

Despite being the latest and hottest game system on the market, the Nintendo Wii consoles do not take graphics and speed to new levels. Instead, it is a revolutionary new control system that differentiates the Wii from its competitors as well as any game system that came before it. Allowing players to control the game through movements, gesturing, swinging, and swiping, the Nintendo Wii consoles take existing game concepts and marry them with an interactive gaming experience. When playing tennis – on Wii Games – you do not push a joystick to swing the racket, you swing your arm while holding the Wii controller, known officially as the Wiimote. The same goes for all the other games that are designed for the Nintendo Wii consoles. However, part of the appeal of the Nintendo Wii consoles is that they are not designed solely for Nintendo Wii games. In fact, they are fully compatible with games for the Nintendo GameCube as well.

Another impressive element of the Nintendo Wii consoles is that they also have the ability to interface with the Internet – when used in conjunction with a Wi-Fi USB connector. Once online, the Nintendo Wii consoles allow users to surf the Web, shop online, check the news and weather, chat on message boards, and even download Nintendo classics like Donkey Kong, Mario Brothers, and many, many more.

The vision of the Nintendo engineers just a few years ago is a reality today. In the Nintendo Wii consoles that have created a game system that does not try to keep up with others, but instead stands apart from the competition. The video game industry will never be the same.
