| Wii Nintendo Features | ||||
by Gregory Hepburn The Nintendo Wii has completely modified the way gaming controllers are manufactured. The Wii’s controller looks more like a TV remote control than a game controller. It has built-in motion sensors so, for example, to swing a tennis racket, you simply move your arm as if you were really swinging a racket. Also, the controllers supply the players with feedback at various times such as they vibrate when you point them at clickable buttons, or they produce a sound when two players are playing bowls. The Nintendo Wii system is well-matched with Gamecube games as well as the Gamecube controller although the two systems use very dissimilar controllers. The Wii also has the ability to download games from the original Nintendo (NES), Super Nintendo (SNES), and the Nintendo 64. In terms of pricing, the Nintendo Wii is less expensive than it’s two main competitors, the Xbox 360 and the PS3. About the Author |
