Nintendo Wii Tops All!

Do you know why I love Nintendo Wii so much? Well, If you have not heard it yet, Nintendo Wii is at it's peak when it comes to the gaming consoles.

For those who don't know Nintendo Wii is a very unique gaming system where you can manipulate your movements in the game wirelessly. This is done using bluetooth wireless technology where signals from the game controllers are wirelessly transmitted to the game consoles, allowing the characters in the screen the move as you direct the controllers.

The Wii controller is made up of 2 things. The Wii remote and the Nunchuck remote. They are used conjunctively to control the actions and movement of the characters in the screen.

Some of the latest games featured are, Wii Sports which mimics the actual play of Golf, Tennis, Bowling and much more. What's even more amazing about this dream-come-true product for the fit is, you get to burn calories while playing the game.

Even Adventure Games like "The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess", allows you to use the remote controller to aim and fire a bow and arrow while the nunchuck controller can be used to make the character move forward, back, right and left. An Amazing swordplay is created with the controller and nunchuck.

Not forgetting other games like Super Mario Bros, Spiderman 3 and Pokemon which adds up to about 1.76 million games being shipped.

Despite the limited games, believe it or not but Nintendo Wii tops over Microsoft's Xbox and Sony's Play Station 3 with the following staggering figures in USA:
Nintendo Wii: 360,000 units sold Price: $250
Xbox 360: 82,000 sold (US$838.6 million) Price: $300
Sony PlayStation 3: 174,000 sold Price: $500
These are only figures for April 2007.
I believe you can get better deals for your Nintendo Wii over at EBay!

I can't wait for the new releases to be out. With the number of people owning and talking about Nintendo right now, I believe it's not too far that more gadgets and physically interactive games, that even soccer can be played indoor...and if you can even play it online against another component, imagine yet having soccer teams made up of players from the homes of Nintendo Wii Owners.

How far can it go?
