Nintendo Wii
Just The Facts
- The Wii is currently the best selling console for this generation of Consoles.
- The Virtual Console and Wii Ware titles offer many alternative methods of playing.
- The Wii has many accessories to enhance the play of certain games. However, 2/3 of them will make you look like a moron to the casual observer.
Cracked on the Wii
The Wii was introduced at the 2005 E3 Convention. It was planned to be an alternative to the high powered systems of the current generation. Offering less graphical capability but a different type of controller, side stepping the current market. The creators of the system have given various explanations for their decision, and the creation of the Wii console. They have repeatedly cited the fact that as each generation of system is born graphics become the main focus on improvement. Shigeru Miyamoto stated, " Too many powerful consoles can't coexist. It's like having only ferocious dinosaurs. They might fight and hasten their own extinction." So there you have it. Nintendo doesn't understand how dinosaurs work.
The Wii Remote (or Wii Mote, if you have a speech impediment) features accelerometers and an infared detector to find its position in 3-D. All of this functions with a sensor bar, which normally goes on top of the television. Besides the motion detection, the Wii mote features 6 buttons and a D-pad. The Wii mote has various attachments, such as the Nunchuk attachment, which adds an extra two buttons and an analog stick. Another accessory for the Wii mote is the Classic Controller, used for playing the Virtual Console titles. The Wii mote has various other shell accessories, which allow for playing games more effectively, like a steering wheel, a gun, and even a sword and shield.
Maybe include something about how there are only 4 types of Wii Games:
Reply-Shovelware (too much to list)
-Tom Clancy Shovelware (tom clancy's _______)
-Arcade Shovelware (chicken shoot)
-Amazing games that make you look like a total idiot to everybody else in the room while you play them (Super Mario Galaxy, Little King's Story, Battallion Wars II, Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition, Metroid ____, Zelda stuff, The Conduit (good for a wii game), Boom Blox)
Oh yeah, and a good majority of Wii players all complain about how nobody supports their system. Well, nobody outside of Japan at least.
Way to ruin a perfect topic. How many people think they could've written something better?
