This console blew my mind as a kid. It was a gift from my grandparents and I always cherish and kept it since I got it as a reminder of them.

"It all goes back to marketing. Something that Nintendo has excelled at for decades." Too bad that is no longer true. The Wii U is a great machine, but marketing is one of the primary reasons it is failing in the market at this time. Hopefully that changes before its too late...

I love Nintendo Wii. It is a pretty fun console & it has great games. At first I was very confused of the Wii Mote + Nunchuck controller & the use of motion to play the games, but after awhile I learned to use it well & enjoy the games. I got my Wii in very cheap price, so it was a good deal to buy it. Only sad thing in Wii is the difficulty of finding good games today. Most of the Nintendo's games are still very expensive & I don't want to spend lot's of money on the game, that I'm not completely sure if it's my kind of game. Also it's pretty rare to find games that are really awesome since they get sold very fast. Nintendo Wii is awesome console & I am happy to have it on my huge game collection. Too bad I bought it pretty late.

I can pretty much shoot down most wii accusations made by 360 and ps3 fanboys motion controls sucks: Buy a classic controller, but some games benefit from motion controls, you are not forced to use the motion though the graphics suck: No they dont, the good games on it look good, the only problem was it couldnt handle games like gta 4 and assassins creed but I think some titles made up for that its kiddie: Monster hunter 3,metroid prime 3,no more heroes 2,madworld,zelda twlight princess,zelda skyward sword, manhunt,goldeneye, red steel 2, xenoblade chronicles, resident evil 4, online sucks: I remember playing cod black ops,smash bros and mario kart just fine online, true friend codes were a pain but really its not such a big deal as long as online multiplayer works call of duty rules!: And wii has it with better controls, since you can actually point like an actual gun the aiming is perfectly accurate, those analog sticks cant be comfortable for aiming wii titles can never hold up to uncharted and heavy rain: Heavy rain isnt a real game sorry, I like the story but it should not count as an actual game, as for uncharted I love that franchise but: Super mario galaxy and xenoblade chronicles are both equally as amazing for many people

I prefer the GameCube over the Wii. GameCube is awesome. You can play an entire library of Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance games on your GameCube by using the Game Boy Player accessory. I never owned a Wii, but it sure looks cool because it is backwards compatible with GameCube game discs, GameCube controllers and GameCube memory cards.

Its hard to find a multiplayer game on the ps3 in which you can use splitscreen instead of online bullass. Seriously, why did sony/microsoft even bother to allow more than one controller? there are no games that use splitscreen or anything like that! The wii does have that, and i'd rather sit next to my opponent than talking to him/her through a fucking headset.

I don't know how functional your WiiNES (yes. it would be pronounced 'wee-ness') Advantage control combo would be ultimately. I think more than anything, since the 2 are roughly the same size, it might be better for OCD storage. So... if you like grouping similar sized items together, I have a great combo for you. The Wii/book. The book specifically of course would be the "Necronomicon" Just imagine the hours of fun for the whole family when you combine motion controls AND evil demons and spirits. Grandma would love it!!!

I prefer this 1st model of the Wii shown on here more than the Wii Family Edition and the Wii Mini. For 1 it's got more features than the other 2. And I say that, because it's got both the WiFi receiver and the GameCube compatibility. Where as the Family Edition gets rid of the GameCube compatibility and then the Mini gets rid of the WiFi receiver.

As an PS2 fan I really didn't care for today's consoles at first & even though that it would be pointless to buy Wii, PS3 or XBox360. I was too harsh for them & I'm very happy to learn that newest gaming is still OK.

For me, the Nintendo Wii is an amazing emulator. I buy old games off of the shop and play them using the classic controller. My other use for the Wii is to play new games that are similar to older titles, such as New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Kirby's Return to Dreamland and Donkey Kong returns. Nintendo Wii, the greatest retro console of all time.

Story Time: Back in 2009 when I was about 9 or 10 years old I was getting into Nintendo after I got my DS the prior Christmas which my first Nintendo system, at some point I was looking at youtube videos on DS games I was interested in and I believe I stumbled upon Clasic Game Room's review of a DS Ben 10 game (I was also a Ben 10 fan at the time) and then this video was recommended to me. Now at time time I wasn't really aware of game consoles older than the PS1 (I had a few PS1 games that I played on my PS2 growing up) and I had just gotten New Super Mario Bros DS which was my first Mario game and I thought the 2D sidescroller format totally original game concept Nintendo made for that game specifically... So when I watched this video and he shows NES and talk about it I was like "What the hell is that?" I did some research and found out about the original Super Mario Bros and it completely blew my mind that Nintendo was making Mario platfomers similar to the one I played on DS back in the 80s. The more research I did about the NES the more fasinated I became about it, I found out about other retro Nintendo systems along with SEGA and Atari but I always found the NES the most interesting something about it being the origin of most of Nintendo's franchises like Mario. Eventually I told my parents about it and begged them to get me one on trademe (New Zealand's version of eBay) since I knew it would probably be cheap compared to modern consoles and they refused saying the games were so old I would probably get bored with them quickly... Well then a few months go buy and we travel to visit my extended family and when we went to my uncle's house he had an NES with a bunch of games from his childhood hooked up to a CRT TV and I played it pretty much that whole time we were over there, only stopping to talk to my uncle about it and ask about when and how he got it back when it was released. Yet even seeing this my parents still wern't convined I actually wanted an NES as much I said I did... Eventually I discovered emulation which is a whole other story, and the rest was history in terms of my interest in retro gaming. But yeah, I have Classic Game Room to thank for making me aware of the NES and by extension all retro gaming before the PS1 EDIT: Now that I think about it I don't think I knew about the Wii's GameCube support until I saw this video either as I had only played the Wii at friends' houses, that was pretty mind-blowing as well for 10 year old me

Its a really good looking console, and in my opinion the game cube library was excelent, matter of fact, i think the game cube is probably one of the most underrated consoles of history, perhaps even more underrated than the dreamcast, i bet there are a lot 16 bit emulators for the wii as well, and that would make it right now a very interesting box to have in any living room...

@LOLz261 I was able to actually start getting pretty well-defined triceps with Wii Fit. and no games?How about Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, RE4 Wii Edition, the entire Metroid Prime Trilogy, Metroid: Other M (not-so-stellar story, but AMAZING gameplay), Punch-Out!!, WarioWare: Smooth Moves, No More Heroes 1&2, Zack and Wiki, MadWorld, Monster Hunter Tri. Need I keep going?

NES Advantage duct taped to a Wii. 4 years later, the Wii U controller is introduced. Coincidence?

I had the same problem with my Wii when I originally tried to connect it to my WiFi network, but After a bit of experimentation, came up with a solution. Since the Wii uses the 2.4 GHz band for its wireless, it seems that it can have difficulty connecting to at least some of the 11 channels available to those devices. Most routers usually have the frequency channel selection set to "Auto", so just start at ch. 1 and test your Wii's connection until your Wii can connect to your network...

Theoretically, you're able to connect a USB NES controller to the back of the Wii via those USB ports on the back and play NES games with Virtual Console, right?

Picked up a Wii for $250 almost six years ago now, and I've never once regretted the purchase. Between Wii games, GameCube games (I skipped the GCN in favor of the PS2), and Virtual Console games, I still haven't played all the worthwhile games available on the system. I've since picked up a PS3 as well, but my Wii still gets used. Anyone who tells you that the Wii only has games for kids is full of it.

I just got a Wii and for a hardcore gamer the Wii is a great "side kick system" with only a Wii it can get boring but with a xbox/ps3 its a nice change of pace mainly the 1st party games you can get it for under 100 bucks too.

the wii U is wonderfully creative and a ton of fun, as well as remarkably convenient. the 1 major negative would have to be the price, but even that is arguable. the library of games this early into its life is quite nice, and every technical aspect works flawlessly.

I know this review is a few years old, but I have to let you know if you don't already- people out there make NES to GameCube controller adapters for the virtual console stuff! I have one but I don't have the NES advantage anymore, but it theoretically should actually work! Get a couple and have fun!
