Nintendo Wii

These days it is hard to find a console that can satisfy everyone in the family . Well, the Wii brings a new generation of competitive family gaming that's just way too much fun!!!

Console graphics- 8/10
The graphics aren't bad but, they are certainly an upgrade from the Nintendo’s other consoles. Nintendo promised better graphics and that's what you get!! It is nothing compared to the HD in a Playstation 3 or Xbox 360, but it is definitely a step up for Nintendo.

Sound quality- 9/10
Sound is great. From the realistic games to the addicting nonsense games the Wii provides a very aesthetically pleasing experience. There is also a little speaker in the Wii Remote that most games utilize for some very distinct, but very useful sounds.

Online setup- 9/10.
I really love the way the online setup works. It’s easy to setup with a wireless connection, or buy the adapter to plug directly in with a cable. There are tons of thing you can do online with the Wii. My favorite is the Wii Shop. You can go on the “Shop Channel” and buy old-school Nintendo games. This is a great feature for me because I can never get enough of the old Mario games from the Nintendo and Super Nintendo systems. You can also access weather and news and many other features. Many games also come with online capabilities such as playing friends, playing random people, and sharing information. Although the Wii online is great, I still prefer the setup of Xbox Live.

Controls- 9/10
The Wii-remote and Nunchuck are very nice additions. The motion sensing gameplay is just way too much fun!! The only downside is some games it just feels awkward. But you can plug in an old Gamecube controller and your ready to go!!! You can also buy a Wii classic controller. The design is similar to the original SNES (Super Nintendo Entertainment System). This controller is great for the older games.

Games-10/10
So far, the wii has a game for every person’s taste. It's fun for the whole family. The included Wii Sports games are plently to keep you entertained for countless hours!! It’s tough to tear away from the Wii sports, and add in all the other available games and you have non-stop fun!!!

All in all- 10/10
I am more than impressed with the Nintendo Wii console. It has far exceeded my expectations in every aspect. It is definitely a great system for the family… When I go back to the parent’s house I even have them playing with me!!! Not to mention all my friends and their families that love it. Although the Wii is best to play with other people, I would say that even an individual would love this system. And for only $250 you can’t go wrong!!! It is worth every single penny. You can’t go wrong with the Wii. A small price tag, large quantities, tons of games and options makes this system a must-have!!!
