Nintendo Wii Console

Cons: Weaker Graphical Capabilities Than the Other Consoles, Many Bad Games

The word 'revolution' in itself is a very powerful term - something so massive in scale that it has the power to change the way we see something. This is why I was expecting big things from Nintendo when they codenamed their next console the 'Revolution' ...

Pros: built in wireless, backwards compatibility, Zelda
Cons: awful name, weak hardware, online strategy, controller sensitivity, no HD support

Pretty much anyone who bought their Wii before February probably has a tale about how they were able to procure said console. Whether it was standing out in subzero temperatures for 5 hours, fighting through the Christmas shopping crowds, or robbing your ...

Cons: Maximum display is 480p, the controls still need a little tweaking.

Nintendo has always tried to be an innovator with gaming in the console world. A lot of their stuff have been flops from the very beginning. Remember the robot that originally came with the system? Virtual boy was a cool idea but the market just wasn’ ...

Pros: awesome design, family appeal, easy to setup and play, Wii Channels!
Cons: weak hardware may reduce its lifespan as a console

Pros: Up and playing gaming

Nintendo’s newest gaming experience the Wii is lucky enough to be one of the many highly sought after holiday gifts snatched off the shelves of major retailers and quickly finds it way to Ebay;s version of America’s Most Wanted. Yes, these thugs ...

Pros: Practicing controller ninjitsu. S'pose the inventive motion-sensing and (eventual) vast VC library is cool also.
Cons: Bad graphics. (Mostly) bad games. Overpriced "cheapo" games. Overpriced VC games. Poor online arrangement.

We live in a very interesting period for the video game boom. Reaching over a little more than a decade, it hasn’t been that long since two-dimensional video games have officially entered through the mirror world of 3D. That was a great big leap ...

Pros: Fun and innovative way to play video games.
Cons: No high end graphics and controller sensitivity

I admit that I didn't pay too much attention when they announced the new Nintendo system a while ago, the kids went on and on about it with each little tidbit of information they read about it, although then it was known as the Revolution. I was more ...

This review is on the Wii console with 5-in-1 Sports game, 1 remote controller with Nunchuk. INTRO: I’ve always owned a Nintendo game system in my house since the introduction of the first “NES” in the mid 80’s. When the new ...

Pros: interactive style, gets players off the couch, use of sensor controllers, small size, connectivity, personalization
Cons: graphics

Hard to believe that in my younger days I was a videogame nut. I went through a Pong console, onto an Atari (and I had almost all the games), and finally a Super NES. Somewhere around that time, my fondness for videogames waned. Although I bought the ...

Pros: innovative, low price, intense, fun
Cons: does not play DVD's, below average graphics, hard to find second remote

I’m generally not the type of person who plays video games. Sure, when I was younger I had my SEGA Dreamcast and Nintendo 64, but I never took full advantage of them; something about sitting in a room playing games on a TV for 13 hours wasn’t that ...

Pros: I love the new Wii-motes, classic downloads!
Cons: Weaker graphics then other consoles, some games will tire you out.

Wow, that's the new name Nintendo came up with for their latest gaming console here? Was the older code name Revolution really that bad in the first place? I do admire them going for that more controversial Wii name though. That's all I'll said about ...

Pros: Excellent unique gaming. You get in a few hours of exercise as well.
Cons: NONE AT ALL.

Cons: Controls suffer on many games. Graphics aren't as good as the other systems

I remember when the Revolution, (the earlier name for the Wii) was first announced, everyone I knew was making fun of it. I even had my share of scoffing at it. Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony were all making new systems and most people were really ...

Pros: It's intriguing and new. Good packaging. Fun if you have enough people.
Cons: If you don't play single-console multiplayer, then hold off.

I know what you're thinking. You're probably saying, "Hey, this guy's cheating! The console's not out yet, how could he possibly have played it?!" Well, if you've got the right connections, you or someone you know already has their hands on one. ...

Pros: The games keep my son active! Fun, innovative game play for the whole family!
Cons: Addictive! The graphics aren't as high quality, but I've discovered I really don't care...
