Review: This review is on the Wii console with 5-in-1 Sports game, 1 remote controller with Nunchuk. INTRO: I’ve always owned a Nintendo game system in my house since the introduction of the first “NES” in the mid 80’s. When the new ...

Cons: graphics

The Bottom Line: The Nintendo Wii brought me back into gaming after years of not really playing at all. It will change the way you think about video games.

Pros: I love the new Wii-motes, classic downloads!

Cons: Weaker graphics then other consoles, some games will tire you out.

The Bottom Line: If you are getting bored with typical video games try the Wii here.

Cons: NONE AT ALL.

The Bottom Line: Awesome gaming console. Don't doubt the Wii. Welcome to the next generation gaming world.

Pros: The games keep my son active! Fun, innovative game play for the whole family!

The Bottom Line:

The Nintendo Wii is full of family friendly fun for children and adults

Cons: Price, availability

The Bottom Line: Gets your kids active, great game selection, fun for all

Pros: Great for groups

Cons: Not a good choice of quality games.

Review: The best thing about the Wii is it can be played by anyone. Anyone, as in my 3 year old son. The wii is perfect for parties and other group activities. It's not very fun playing solo for long periods of time though, but that may just be my opinion....

Pros: Fun. Active. Great design

Cons: Games can be expensive. Addictive

Review: I have never been into gaming. Never had my own games consol. Never understood the appeal of PC games.
But then we got a Wii for the office. I bought the Beach Sports package, so I could play beach cricket with my cricket-mad boss. And what...
