The wii is a completely overated next gen console!!!!
When you first get the wii it will be fantstic for the first few weeks
but then it will get very boring. All the games are quite fun but
they all get very samey. When the good games come to the wii the
gameply and graphics seem to drop all for the motion sensors.
So overall the wii is very overated and will get boring!!!

I was thinking about buying a wii, so i went to a friends house to play on one and within 10 minutes of playing with it i got bored. All of the games seem the same and they seem to have sacrifised good gameplay and graphics for motion sensors. This is a rubbish console so do not buy it!!!!

Nintendo couldn't have designed the Wii better, along with how it is presented. I didn't even realise I was about to open it when it arrived one morning, the packaging is so compact! The console itself is a technological achievement - Nintendo have designed a machine that boasts 4x the graphics power of the Gamecube, with built in Wi-Fi, backwards compatability for 6 other consoles, room for 4 Gamecube controllers, 2 memory cards, SD card compatability, and more in the space of 3 DVD cases... Not only this but since the original release, I have now updated my system's software up to 3.1E, with extra channels, and all for 179.99?
This is where the Playstation 3 can't compete - it is classless. At the end of the day, its an overpowered machine that hasn't even reached its potentional, while housing features like a Blue Ray drive that you're never going to get full use out of, and a tacky controller to try and compete with the Wii's motion sensor.
The Wii meanwhile was designed purely for gaming. Switch it on via the remote, and in seconds your away. The remote connects via 2 ways - The Bluetooth allows the axis and button information to be sent to the console, while a sensor on the top allows you to point on screen.
Once the Wii has powered up, you're presented with the Wii Menu - a simple way of presenting all the features of the console in a 'TV' style way - each 'channel' being piece of software.
On a graphical basis, their have so far been an array of games that graphically, are stunning, though it should be said that quite rightly, not all games focus purely on fancy looks. Excite Truck is one, when even while your driving at super-fast speeds, you can still see miles, and miles, and miles away a gorgeous landscape, or the incredible water ripples and reflection in puddles and rivers. What about Resident Evil 4? The graphics almost compare to that of the Xbox 360's, with stunning facial emotions and incredible physics. Nintendo's first games, like Wii Sports, were not designed to meat this level. They're just games to demonstrate that the Wii offers more than predictable fancy graphics. But certain people just can't accept this.
Once your up on running on the net, another window opens for opportunities, whether you want to surf a Google Earth style weather program, or browse the news across the world on a 3-D globe, or go on the internet channel - perfect for watching You Tube on the big downstairs TV! Or why not download classic games from 3.50? And its all wireless and free with a wi-fi dongle that could cost as little as 8 pounds off ebay. You also have the option of WiiConnect 24 - a mode in which your console is constantly connected to the net, allowing updates to be downloaded while the console is off, signalled by a beautiful blue glow over the disc slot.
Noise levels? Silent. Well, only a whisper quiet fan if your playing at night, but unlike other consoles in the past, this is a cool and quiet console, and pretty much reflects its personality - its not pumping out power. Its just staying at its own level...
And looks? I would say this is the best looking console of this generation. You can only say this when you hold it though - its shiny smooth surface that's clean white looks so modern on a glass TV stand, and looks even better in its horizontal position. What's more, it takes up no room, unlike the 360 and PS3. And how cool is the blue light on the console? That's just inspired, made even better when you could be watching TV and then suddenly, it gradually lights up.
The fact that the Wii applys to such a broad age group makes it the most appealing game console ever made. You can download all your old favourite games and bring back memories with the family from when even you were younger! (Not a good idea with Donkey Kong Country, because their a still some levels that are simply impossible!) and with the current software, their is every genre going. But what makes this more attractive is that the games are cheap, from as little as 17.95! Their is simply no excuse not to treat yourself to a fun and educational game such as Endless Ocean.
I could go on, but I wouldn't be able to stop. Bad points? Only 1 little niggle - To play Gamecube games, you need to remove the flaps on the top of the console - not handy if its in a tight space (i.e a TV stand)
I've been using video consoles for over a decade, but the Wii is currently the best console i've ever used. After owning it for 10 months, I can honestly say it represents the true meaning of next generation, while, in typical Nintendo fashion, setting more and more benchmarks, but for a rare time, in quite beautiful style. But whats so priceless is that their is now a catalogue of over 175 downloadable, since the NES, that allows me and many millions of people out their to relive all their past times. The Wii isn't just what's happening now. It's a celebration of what 'did' happen, and why we loved gaming in the first place. And all at just a fraction of the cost of the original consoles! (I remember the SNES being... ready? £450!)
