Are Wii the Children of the Revolution?


The Nintendo Wii is the latest product from Nintendo, which can be considered revolutionary. So far, all we know about the Wii is that you can play games on it which a wireless controller you can use like a remote, not exactly like a controller. Well, honestly what is the Wii and what makes it so interesting that it is "revolutionary" to all ages groups? Well, the Wii is a unique game console where a player is able to use their body movements to move the characters with their remote instead of hand controller where you are limited to buttons. What makes the Wii so interesting? So far there is no other game console that uses body motion to play. It gets the players active and able to move around instead of being limited to a seat. Why would the Wii be considered "revolutionary" for age groups? The Wii can be played by anyone. Sure other game consoles allow different age groups to play their games as well, but the Wii uses actually games that all people would be interested in playing. No matter how old you are, you can play tennis, boxing, golf, baseball, etc. It is easy to understand and tons of fun. I myself have played the Wii and found it incredibly amusing. The entire family can join in on the fun. Mom, Dad, Sister, and even some unwanted guests who just drop by to play. The Wii does not limit a player to button sequences which can get confusing and tiring. The Wii, just move to the flow, punch the other guy in the face, and hit the ball as fast as you can. The simplicity along with the entertainment, the Wii has proven to be favourable to many people. Even though it may not be appealing to you at the moment and wonder why there's so much buzz around it, ask any person who's waited outside a store for 6 hours, or paid double online, or waited 2 weeks with a special order, and they can also tell you plain and simple why they would love the Wii. It is revolutionary.

Hey Julia. :)

I so agree that is revolutionary. And lucky you, you got to try it out. I haven't yet, and i'm waiting til I can. (: But anyways, I also agree on the fact that many age groups can play it. Why? Because it isn't complicated to understand. Using your own body movements to move the character in the game, very enjoyable.
