Lame, I know. :) We own this and an Xbox360. (With 6 kids we weren't even thinking about a PS3). Only my husband plays the Xbox360, but all of us play the Wii. I have the Wii fit and other "mom" games, the little ones play Tony Hawk downhill jam (the controls are simple so they don't get frustrated) and Diego, the older kids play Rayman TV Party and Mario Galaxy, and the hubby loves Guitar Hero. We also play it when we have people over. They tend to want to play Wii Sports and American Idol. All in all, a great console for folks who like to play (in the same room) with their friends and family.

the wii is a great console for all times
but it needs some good third parties support to make it better
really goo tittles
and NINTENDO has to make all new 3A franchises

I pick up a couple of this consoles for my two nephews and after watching the entire family having fun (including my mother who never lay a hand on a video game console before) I decided to get one for myself. after trying the thing at home accompanied by my girl and some friends I have to admit, the Wii still was fun. But when I try to play by myself I realize that I look like a mental patient plus I get tire of swinging my arms just for the character hit a ball.
So the way I see it the Wii is fun and innovative to a point because the technical specs are not worthy to be call next generation (looks like they just jam an improve version of the old Gamecube inside the Wii), for me it was fun to play with family and friends not when you are alone. In the contrary the way you play the games its really innovative, but to be honest it gets old really quickly.
Maybe I'm to old for this console in fact if you look at the game list, its clear that Nintendo intended this console to be for kids. I keep my Wii as a novelty or party trick if you will since I don't use it very often.
Mean while I get my game on my xbox360 he understand that I just want to play High Definition, awesome graphics, online first person shooters and car racing games, all that while sitting in my lazyboy.
This is a good choice as a family fun game or for small kids, but for true gamers or people ages 16 to 35 this console will be a waste of time and money.

Instead of buying our system first, all I could find after Sunday was accessories at a few retailers. I picked up the accessories I knew that we would need, and then started asking everyone 'Do you have a Wii?', and 'When do you expect them?'. Only one local game store knew that they were expecting a handful in the next day and told me to come back then.
Before Wii, I had 3 remotes, 1 nunchuk, 3 gloves, $20 Wii points card, Wii softside shoulder sling (bag), Zelda, Avatar, and, Game accessory pack (extended base + glove + 512 MB). This cost about $400, but with a family of 4, I knew that we'd need the three extra remotes (color coded with the gloves for each member) to keep the peace in our home. The Zelda game is for my adventure seeking teenage son, and the Avatar game is for our pre-teen daughter.
Then the big day arrived - the Wii came home. I bought it along with the Zelda guidebook and MonkeyBall (after reading about how Monkey ball is a BUNCH of minigames ... we've barely scratched the surface with this one - this is a great party/family game).
After it was all said and done, I increased the GDP by about $750 for the entire system, 3 games, and accessories.
Now - was it worth it?
ABSOLUTELY. I'd score this 10 stars if that was possible!
I predict that the Wii is going to be this Christmas Season's "Elmo" ... but on steroids. Crowds may have been gentle, and considerate for the Wii when compared to the PS3, but I'll guarantee you this ... when your 'Johnny' gets a chance to play the Wii at his friend's home, he's going to be begging you for one - and I doubt crowds will be as cordial if a shortage of Wii's occur.
Our gamecube burned out this summer after 2+ years of loyal service. Our large gamecube game collection sat collecting dust, and the news about the Revolution/Wii hit the streets about the same time. We waited and waited for months, playing XBox and PS2 for a while - but no longer.
To say that the Wii is fun is an understatement. I don't think we've had this much fun 'at home' in a long time. It's so much fun, I had to sneak in a few minutes of bowling before running off to work this morning (while the kids were still sleeping).
Wii Sports - absolutely fun! We're big bowlers - and this was almost like playing at the real bowling alley - except my arm doesn't get sore heaving the ball down the alley. Otherwise, it senses how quickly you release and if you add a little bit of rotation, it will cause the ball to spin to the 'inside' (to the left if you are right handed ... and it doesn't seem to matter which way you rotate your hand).
For those that have frustrations that you need to vent on another family member, check out Boxing! I never thought I'd get into this, but it was alot of fun!
I can't comment on the other parts of Wii Sports yet - we've not tried them all yet! I'll fill in the blanks as time allows. For now, I'll have to let the kids play while I look forward to playing all weekend long (4-day Thanksgiving weekend)!
Warning:
Please - if you're reading this and you haven't figured this out yet - use the wrist straps provided with the Wii (and not the colorful ones that come with the gloves). You can cinch up the grey wrist straps. Wearing the wrist straps is MANDATORY, especially if you have anything that is valuable and fragile in the same area where you are playing. We haven't broken anything (yet), but there's already stories online about a player busting a laptop screen because they didn't use the wrist strap.

This system has renewed my interest in video gaming systems since I go bored with my Playstaion 1, six years ago.
Apart from the green and black screen GameBoy, I have never owne a nintendo system. I grew up with the Commodore 64, Sega Megadrive (Genesis) and Playstation 1.
But after seeing a demo of this in our local store, my wife and I had to have it.
It is so much fun and it doesn't feel like you are being lazy and lounging around the house as I often felt lying in front of the Playstation. I was sore for a week after my first day playing the sports pack.
I would definitely recommend getting the extra controllers and also the Wii Fit Board. They just add to the family fun!
The built in Wi-Fi is great and it updates automatically. The "Wii Me" is also a fun way to interact and keep you motivated if you use it for fitness puropses.
Even if you have a PS3 or XBox, add this to you collection ... you won't regret it!

Ok I've had the Wii for a year now so I know alot about it.
Positive+
-It is fun and the remote works well.
-It's got alot of fun features like the Internet channel and Wii shop.
-You can buy old games (NES, SNES, N64, Genisis, ect)on the wii shop channel. (need wi-fi connection and wii points)
-Games are fun and work well with the Wii remote and nunchuck.
- ECT.
Negitive -
-It's a pain to put a GameCube controller on because the ports are on the top of the Wii, so to avoid knocking over the Wii I turn it on its side, but it just suks. So I got a wireless gamecube controller and they work very well!
-When you first get it, it's kind of confusing on how to sync the Wii Remotes but once you do then you have to get the settings on the Wii to make your remote show up on the screen and that takes a while.
-It takes a while for it to turn off. But that's not the big proplem, if you have Wi-Fi. When it's on the light is Green, when it's off it's red. But if you have Wi-Fi the off color is yellow-orange. It's hard to tell if the light is green or yellow, so I have to wait by the Wii and watch the Wii to see if the color is yellow or green.
I don't know if this helped but these are my + and -.
I also recommend that you buy Wii Play because 1: you get a second Wii remote, 2: you get the game Wii Play which can really help you get used to the Wii Remote and it's fun with 2 people!

The Wii is a lot of fun for people of all ages. I won't go into the product specs because 100s of reviewers have already covered it. What differentiates the Wii from other gaming products is the physical activity it provides with the movement-sensing Wiimote, and the Internet connectivity that makes the News-reading experience more visual (you can look at the World map and drill down to read news in any part of the World). It's an essential add to any family room.
I have connected the Wii directly to my Epson projector (sans the sound until I buy a receiver) and the nearly 100" image makes playing Wii sports (a great source of exercise when it's too late at night to hit the gym or the weather is bad outside) very enjoyable, and I can read the news in Slide-show mode while talking on the phone with family and friends...
The set-up was a cinch! I was able to do it in minutes and hardly needed to read the instructions.

There's a reason there's so much hype around the Wii - it's simple, fun, and intuitive. It lends itself well to a pick-up-and-play mentality, with no shortage of minigames available. There are a few things to consider before purchasing one, though.
First is the Nintendo Factor. Nintendo is very well-known for having weak support from other developers. If you owned a Nintendo 64 or Gamecube, you might remember waiting 3 or 4 months between triple-A titles, and that hasn't changed. If anything, it's worse, as the motion-sensing controls require developers to both think of an innovative design to incorporate them, and smoothly put them into the game. Not everyone's up to the challenge. The flip side of the Nintendo Factor is that you get Nintendo's first-party titles, which consistently shine as some of the best games on the market. Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Zelda: Twilight Princess, Super Smash Brothers Brawl - very safe bets.
If you like playing online, the Wii is a big disappointment. Guitar Hero III has online play, and so will Smash Brothers, but that's about it. This is a far cry from what you'll get on the other consoles. The Virtual Console's selection of vintage games is nice, although it's strictly old console games - no new or independent releases.
Also, be aware of the system's power. Aside from motion-sensing and some of the bells and whistles like an internet browser, this is in the same ballpark as a PS2 or Gamecube. It looks better than either of those, but not by a lot. Nintendo's art style works pretty well on it, with their games being the visual highlights, but the Wii can't do a lot of the things a PS3 or 360 can. Games are getting bigger, more open-ended, and more freeform, and Wii owners aren't going to see a lot of that.
Of course, it's also priced much lower than the other systems - $[...] vs a suspect $[...], with much more still to buy for the latter. The games themselves are $[...] cheaper as well. It certainly doesn't feel like a ripoff.
I focused on those negative points because while the Wii has no shortage of (very well-deserved!) glowing press, those caveats seem to be glossed over by most outside the "gamer culture." If you can handle those issues, I'm sure you and your Wii will be very happy together.

After only 8 hours of usage, the Wii died. First was the remote not working. After several attempts to resync the remotes, I turned off the console and now it shows a blank TV screen. Attempts at troubleshooting with every conceivable combination of console, cables and televisions were unsuccessful. The Nintendo web site was equally useless providing only the same basic information that any nerd would have tried. Is it plugged in? Do the lights come on? Really helpful...NOT! After reading through all the useless recommendations, it finally just says I need to repair it.
But of course, when I enter in the serial number, the web site can't determine if my brand-new console is under warranty. How lame is that? Calling the 800 number they provide connects me to what sounds like a fax machine. Nice bogus support phone number. If this is the kind of support and quality product I can expect from Nintendo, then maybe I should just return this product.

Con: Graphics are not what I would like them to be and there is no HDMI output.
Pros: I was hesitant at first at getting the Wii because it seems like it is geared more towards children. I have come to find out that it applies to all ages. My wife and I really like the Wii because it is interactive, you get to move your hands, stand up and swing or punch. For other games you are pushing the controller forward or moving the controller around to aim and shoot at things (people) and I really like the real feel to it. It took some getting used to but after that it was all over... we really enjoy it.

My son loves the game. I think I like the first Boom Blox better, but it is still fun. There is a lot more to do on this game and very similar to the first one, but with added features. If you liked the first one. I say go ahead and get the second one. You will enjoy it.

We have had the most fun with our Wii. It's a great way to exercise when it's snowy or rainy and you just can't bring yourself to go to the gym. My 76-year-old mom started with bowling (with included sports package) since she is a lifelong bowler. Then she took up baseball and she's been hitting more home runs than 47-year-old me! The fitness test is fun to see where you rate in fitness every day. I've found that I am not a bad golfer, although I think folks would cringe if I was actually out on the green.
Wii has also been great fun for my Big Brothers Big Sister "Little" and I to play together. She is an awesome bowler for being only 10.
I just bought Boom Blox and I've been learning how to play it. It's only throwing, so if you want an all-around aerobic fitness routine, definitely try the sports package (golf, baseball, tennis, boxing, bowling).
P.S. Making your avatar (Mii) character is also some of the silliest fun you'll ever have.

I'm rating this without even pulling it out of the box. The reason for my review is to beg you not to pay these crazy prices. Give the system a couple weeks to catch up and the system will be available for its list price of 249. Better yet do what I did. Small quantities are showing up at stores locally as of now. I called my local Game Stop earlier in the week and they said the might have a few later in the week or early next week. They said the truck comes in every day at 10 and they don't know what will be on it. I called at 10:30 and they had "a few" for sale. I cut out of work and got to the store 15 minutes later. There were two other customers in the store, both buying new Wiis. I got the last one. I rather go through this exercise 10 times or wait a couple weeks till stocks rebuild before I'll pay some greedy creap like the people offering them here for way way above retail.

I won't lie, buying this package is for the controller and to test out the wii gimmics that this game allows. The only time I'd bust this out is if friends ever come over and then we'd rather play cards or something. Even rather play my old ddr on my playstation 2 than put this in. Bunch of mini games that get boring fast.

I'm not the typical video gamer. My wife and I get Senior discounts. She wanted the Wii Fit to get in shape. It turned out to be great for that. As a bonus, the basic Wii with it's assortment of sports- tennis, golf, bowling, etc is also a lot of fun, great exercise and easy to learn. Most things about it are highly intuitive and the activities feel very realistic. Virtually.

I love how you can interact with the Wii. I primarily use it for exercise. I have the Wii Fit, Gold's Gym Cardio, My Fitness Coach and Wii Sports.
The fact that you can create different Mii's is entertaining.
I think the graphics on most cames could be better.
I think that it is just going to get better and better over time. I am looking forward to being able to play games on line with my friends.

The Wii is like a fun little nintendo Box. you can play all sorts of old nintendo games on it that were a blast, and download new conceptual things on wiiware.
as a current gaming console...there's nothing good to play. zelda and mario galaxy were pretty fun but they lack the depth of comparable titles on the other two systems. This generation of gaming consoles is pretty tricky, but the wii is the most shallow and stripped down of them all. Once the magic of Wii Sports wears off, its pretty much over because there isn't anything you can really immerse yourself in. And its no cheaper than an Xbox (and somewhat compared to ps3) because if you buy controllers to play its smorgasborg of quick multiplayer games you're set back another $[...].

And its no cheaper than an Xbox (and somewhat compared to ps3) because if you buy controllers to play its smorgasborg of quick multiplayer games you're set back another $[...].

Okay here's the deal. The Wii is great fun at first but after a while will get boring. Furthermore the best game for the Wii is still Wii sports (however if you get the perfect shot attachments Ghost Squad is great fun). So this is what I suggest, if you have tons of money to spend and are looking to buy more game systems within a year or two buy the Wii, however if you are looking for a great game system and are looking for what you get to hold for 3+ years buy the PS3 or Xbox360(hell if you don't want to spend that much money go for the PS2 or Xbox) these are great game systems with lots of great new games coming out.

Like many have said, the Wii rules. I love what Nintendo has done with this console; instead of just mashing buttons, the player becomes more involved in the game through motion-sensing technology. But like any system, it has its good and bad points.
First, the good:
The technology itself. I love the Wii Remote, and how it makes the player a part of the game. This is a technology, that when used to the proper extent on games like Twilight Princess, is amazing and completely captivating. Nintendo hits it out of the park on this one.
Second, I like the Mii channel, where you can create a video game sprite in your own image. It's cool.
Third, the system is easy to set up. I had this thing up and running in less than 15 minutes. That's my idea of a well-designed console.
And finally, the Virtual Console. For those who grew up on Mario, Zelda, Castlevania, Kid Icarus, Ninja Gaiden, etc., this is a godsend. Being able to play all those old-school games is simply great.
But there is the bad...
First, Wii scalpers. Seriously, you guys are dicks. I live in a small town and it took me 18 months to find a Wii because of you people. It would be nice if you'd let some ordinary gamers who only want one system buy a console at retail price. You people suck.
Second, every now and then the remote and the sensor bar don't exactly cooperate with each other. But this is rare, and not a big deal.
Finally, there are too many middling and unappealing games for the Wii. Most of the best stuff has come from Nintendo itself. It seems most companies haven't yet figured out how to best take advantage of the Wii technology. I hope they figure this out, because this is a great system and I would like to see some better games for it.
But the Wii is fun and user-friendly. And that's what matters.

I bought this and the Wii Fit, hoping to find a fun, convenient way to get some exercise. I was not disappointed and looked forward to daily sessions with my personal trainer and my encouraging new little friends. After a few weeks we had some adult relatives visiting and decided to try out the sports games that came with the Wii. What fun! Best of all, my husband, who is in a wheelchair, was able to join in the fun.
