The Wii (ウィー, pronounced /ˈwiː/, like the pronoun we) is a home video game console released by Nintendo. As a seventh-generation console, the Wii primarily competes with Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's PlayStation 3. Nintendo states that its console targets a broader demographic than that of the two others. As of December 2009, the Wii leads the generation over the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in worldwide sales. A distinguishing feature of the console is its wireless controller, the Wii Remote, which can be used as a handheld pointing device and detects movement in three dimensions. Another distinctive feature of the console is WiiConnect24, which enables it to receive messages and updates over the Internet while in standby mode. The Wii is Nintendo's fifth home console, the direct successor to the Nintendo GameCube, and able to play all official GameCube games. Nintendo first spoke of the console at the 2004 E3 press conference and later unveiled the system at the 2005 E3. Satoru Iwata revealed a prototype of the controller at the September 2005 Tokyo Game Show. At E3 2006, the console won the first of several awards. By December 8, 2006, it had completed its launch in four key markets. From Wikipedia under the

This is for anyone who has gotten to use the Wii Motion Plus already. How is it different from the regular remote. They say it's 1:1. Does that mean whatever's on the game moves at the exact same time as the remote. It seems to do that without the Wii Motion Plus. Are you sure that the games just aren't made to work with Wii Motion Plus. Everything on the original Wii Sports seems to work just fine. In baseball any way you move the remote, the bat moves. Asked by brianman108 - Mon Jul 6 14:56:54 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. I have M+ with Tiger Woods 10 and it is great! Without Wii motion plus if you pull your back swing back 6 inches in real life your in game player will pull his back swing back 3-4 feet. With M+ if you pull your back swing back 6 inches your in game player will pull his back 6 inches. That is what they mean when they say 1:1. The level of control is unbelievable and well worth the money. I hope every game in the future uses it. Added - The M+ will have no affect on your old games, just games that are coming out from now on that are developed to use it. M+ adds 3 gyroscopes to the Wii mote and it does have a big impact on games. If you know anyone that has Tiger Woods 10 play a round with and without M+. It's night and day.

Q. I would like to spend a bit on home fitness. The toss up is between a wii + wii fit and a $300 treadmill. How has your experience been for aerobic routines with wii fit? Asked by Sandy - Wed Sep 24 21:33:10 2008 - - 8 Answers - 6 Comments A. Wii Fit is a solid entry in the fitness genre for the Wii. The range of exercises, from easy to hard, can provide a framework for a daily workout routine that will pay off for players who invest in it.
