Nintendo
is setting out to make
waves in the video
gaming world with the
addition of the Nintendo
Wii into the family of
consoles for the video
game giant. Not just by
putting a new name or
updating the graphic
capability is Nintendo
looking to make a splash
with the Wii, but by
making a change in the
way we play the games
fro m top to bottom.
You will
have the chance to leave
messages for family
members on specific days
or send text messages to
friends’ right from the
console, but that is not
where the Wii hangs its
hat. No, Nintendo is
setting itself apart
from the rest of the
industry with the
Wii’s
new remote controller.
There is no shortage of
video game veterans who
remember the annoying,
and nightmarish,
recurring figure in the
Nintendo original game
“Duck Hunt” who would
appear when you were
struggling. That
downright mean and
vindictive dog would pop
up and laugh when you
continued to miss the
birds that kept coming
faster and faster as you
continued to miss. It
was the gun! The gun
didn’t work and the aim
was poor at best, you
just knew it! If only
Nintendo Wii was around
at that time you would
have been able to avoid
that horrible dog, or at
least wouldn’t have had
to blame him for so much
of your pain.
With the emergence of
the Nintendo Wii the
gaming world will get to
experience a
remote
controller with motion
detection technology
that puts you right in
the game. Think of it as
the opportunity for you
to finally become one of
those funny looking
figures in a Nintendo
game, only without the
annoying appearance of
that dog. Seriously,
what you need to know is
that if the game calls
for swinging, like a
golf club, then you hold
the controller in your
hand and swing to hit
the ball, then Nintendo
takes over.
The controller sends a
signal to the sensor bar
that you put up in front
of the television from
up to 30 feet from the
bar. Think of this fact
if you are considering
what the best gaming
console may be for your
child during this
holiday season, with
Nintendo Wii your child
will actually get a
little physical exercise
while being able to play
a game in the comfort of
your living room. Don’t
believe me? You try
playing tennis on the
Nintendo Wii, it is
shockingly close to
playing on a real court,
and you just better have
your powerful backhand
ready to go!
With your controller you
control your character’s
movements along with the
action that you are
doing in the actual
game. Whether you are
skating, playing tennis,
or swimming with Sponge
Bob throughout Bikini
Bottom, you will control
every aspect of your
player by moving just as
he or she does in
virtual gaming paradise!
