Nintendo Wii Video Games

by Billy Jean

Being a video-game thoroughbred, Nintendo was always going to come out tops over its most formidable competitors Microsoft (Xbox) and Sony (PS). It admittedly took a while but with a stroke of genius in the Wii, it was finally mission accomplished. So just what exactly is the gem that is found in Wii?

Needless to say, the video game industry is highly lucrative and everybody wants a bite of the pie. To occupy pole position, the Nintendo Wii had to be top-notch as a lifestyle item. It is multimedia, personal computer, internet browser, communication device and most of all, the mother of all video game consoles, all-in-one.

The magic of Nintendo Wii Video Games is not as much in the games per se as it is in the way they are played. The intuitive remote controller is enabled by its unique motion sensing technology in 3-D, giving it the feeling of the real thing, complete with actual bodily motion and exercise as opposed to the traditional video game serving of buttons and joysticks, always played seated.

The Nintendo Wii Console is basically just a very ordinary processing station. It is the wireless remote controller that is the wizard of Nintendo Wii gaming. Depending on the game in play, it can be a sports gear or an adventure weapon or anything. When used in conjunction with the Nunchuck secondary controller, it sends gamers on highs that are potentially addictive or compulsive, so watch out!

Unlike its predecessors, the Nintendo Wii is not predominantly kiddy. In fact, a good percentage of the most ardent Wii rockers are very matured and sophisticated adults. The range of Nintendo Wii Games caters to all ages and background. They include sports, action, cards, gambling, puzzles, strategy and many others. To-date, there are hundreds of different games to choose from, and counting.

Speaking of preference, the Wii console has that in mind too. It is backward compatible to earlier Nintendo games from GameCube and the NES line. Ports for old-type controllers and media bay that accepts the GameCube discs are provided. Extensive lists of retro and classic games are also comprehensively carried in all Nintendo game libraries including those at independent online sites.

The primary source of Nintendo Wii Video Games is the Wii games store. They are also available through the Wii Virtual Console. However, the pricing structure through these two avenues is rigid and can be steep in the long run especially for serial Wii gamers. That?s why an alternative source of Nintendo Wii Games with a commercial twist through online download is getting vastly popular. At a fraction of the cost of the conventional disc, why wouldn?t it be?
