A Nintendo Wii is a video game console that enables its users to play games using physical movements to control what is happening on screen. A Nintendo Wii forces a person to move physically rather than just sitting down and hitting buttons. It uses motion sensored remote controls to direct what is happening on the screen (Nintendo, 2011). For example, in a game of tennis the remote control will act as the players tennis racket and their character onscreen will mimic every physical movement made with the remote. A Nintendo Wii comes also with a controller with a wrist strap (which is also the remote), one nun-chuck controller, a sensor bar, a power cord and a standard composite cable. Like most video games, Wii needs to be connected to a TV to be played! There are hundreds of different games that can be purchased and played on the Wii and you can have multi players in one game.

From my own personal experience, Wii is an exciting, challenging game that is much more engaging than most video games! If you haven’t already tried playing a Nintendo Wii before I definitely suggest that you try it!
