In a world full of video games one could easily wonder why anyone would need a new model. Sometimes it seems that the graphics can not get any sharper, the sounds any fuller, and the game play any more realistic. Perhaps that reality is one of the reasons that, in 2001, the brain trust at Nintendo began to contemplate taking game consoles in a new direction. After seeing powerful console after powerful console flood the market, Nintendo realized that it was difficult to compete in a market full of heavyweight, high powered machines. Instead, they decided that a console that focused on player interaction could fill a void in a sea of consoles focused on speed and performance. It was with that strategy in mind that the idea for the Nintendo Wii consoles was born.

Despite being the latest and hottest game system on the market, the Nintendo Wii consoles do not take graphics and speed to new levels. Instead, it is a revolutionary new control system that differentiates the Wii from its competitors as well as any game system that came before it. Allowing players to control the game through movements, gesturing, swinging, and swiping, the Nintendo Wii consoles take existing game concepts and marry them with an interactive gaming experience. When playing tennis - on Wii Games - you do not push a joystick to swing the racket, you swing your arm while holding the Wii controller, known officially as the Wiimote. The same goes for all the other games that are designed for the Nintendo Wii consoles. However, part of the appeal of the Nintendo Wii consoles is that they are not designed solely for Nintendo Wii games. In fact, they are fully compatible with games for the Nintendo GameCube as well.

Another impressive element of the Nintendo Wii consoles is that they also have the ability to interface with the Internet - when used in conjunction with a Wi-Fi USB connector. Once online, the Nintendo Wii consoles allow users to surf the Web, shop online, check the news and weather, chat on message boards, and even download Nintendo classics like Donkey Kong, Mario Brothers, and many, many more.

The vision of the Nintendo engineers just a few years ago is a reality today. In the Nintendo Wii consoles that have created a game system that does not try to keep up with others, but instead stands apart from the competition. The video game industry will never be the same.

The future of entertainment is video gaming. Today’s video game consoles take virtual reality to the next level, constantly pushing the envelope in graphical realism. Interactivity hasn’t been left behind either. Revolutionary changes to the game controllers and other videio game accessories add new aspects to the gaming experience. Complex, twisted plots and gamer-defined storylines, combined with hugely interactive environments, are adding the depth to video games that attracts gamers of all demographics. The latest game systems are about more than just video games; they combine social networking, hi-def home theatre entertainment and a slew of other distractions coupled with cutting edge technology.

At the heart of the video gaming industry is the developers’ constant struggle to push the boundaries of reality while working within graphic constraints on the consoles. With each system comes not only a new challenge, but also uniqueness determined by variation in game controllers. Nintendo Wii games differ from both PS3 games and Xbox 360 games, simply because of the Wiimote and its accelerometers. Computer games arguably have the most beefed up graphic requirements, since computer graphics are highly flexible allowing developers to create stunningly detailed and intense environments.

Gaming consoles have seen seven generations, and each one has been more exciting than the last. The current iteration has three heavy weights pitted against each other – Microsoft’s Xbox 360 console, the Sony PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Wii. The advanced graphic processing unit or GPU that runs these machines churns out a state-of-the-art visual explosion that creates the incredible in-game detail. Long gone are the heavy, inconvenient console game systems of old. The shiny sleek new consoles pack a punch, with gaming, movies, music, photos and Internet all in tote. The killer app in all these systems would have to be their ability to connect gamers. The multiplayer aspect of today’s gaming spans continents, from the United States all the way to Japan.

Interactivity is one core aspect of video gaming. The game controllers  like their consoles have seen much evolution. Accelerometers, optical sensors and Bluetooth receivers are among the various features that have transformed the gaming experience. Gone is the wired clutter that came with older consoles like the GameCube controller; wireless controllers have taken over. Revolutionary technology is the cornerstone of the seventh generation controller. At the centre of this change is the new PS3 controller with the SIXAXIS highly sensitive motion technology. The 3d freedom within this controller was first seen in the Wimote, the Nintendo Wii controller, which used accelerometers to enhance gaming. Twirl, flick, flip and twist these controllers to unravel a whole new meaning to intuitive, interactive gameplay.
