The Nintendo Wii: Great For The Whole Family!

By DavePF | September 25, 2008

One of the most successful platforms of all time, the Nintendo Wii Console is easily the best family-oriented console available today. When you purchase a Wii, there are a range of package options to choose so you can choose the one that suits your family’s interest best.

The basic pack comes with the Wii Remote and Wii Sports, which features five distinct nintendo wii games for you to enjoy. Other packages may include one or more of the many different controllers available for the Wii as well as different games to suit your taste.

The Wii takes a rather unique approach to the way in which it is used which is why it has become such a rage. With the easy-to-use Wii Menu which resembles TV channels, you can easily navigate with the wireless controller by simply pointing at the screen. The Wii Menu includes the Mii Channel (which allows you to customize your own character for play), the Wii Shop where you can purchase additional channels for your Wii console through WiiWare, and much more.

The Wii console is also backwards compatible with the Nintendo GameCube, meaning that you can plug in your old GameCube controller and memory cards and play those games on it too. You can connect the GameBoy Advance to it as well. If you have a Nintendo DS, the Wii console can communicate with it over a built-in wireless networking capabilities. This allows you to use the DS as a controller in games such as Pokemon Battle Revolution, and the Wii can enhance or expand other DS games as well. Despite the common misconseption that the Wii console is suitable only for children, there is now a huge collection of games available for the whole family to enjoy.
