When you see these ads, it’ll make you want to buy a Nintendo Wii because they just scream out FUN! Yes, there is the ever so powerful Xbox and Playstation3, but when those 2 are battling for first place, the Wii stands out especially at a much lower cost($250ish) and a much more playful attitude. Sure the Xbox and PS3 are more powerful and graphic intense, but are they as much fun? Isn’t that the point of games? I’m sure their good, but not as exciting since the Wii is creating a community of people obsessed about not just the gaming aspect, but how they play it. There’s a wonderful pool of images on Flickr of Wii users! I’d like to see a comparison of pictures of people playing the PS3 or Xbox, which would probably seem like the stare of boredom that we get in webcams. Anyhow, just my prediction, but the Wii will kick butt! I want one even if I end up smashing my TV with the controller. I’m not saying the Xbox and PS3 are bad, I’m just saying that the Wii is really revolutionizing our aspect of gaming consoles.
Watch the fun ads above or after the jump(direct links: here, here, and here) I’ll throw in some images from that pool of Wii players as well after the jump.
I really love what Nintendo has done with the Wii; what a way to immerse someone in a game. It’s strangely reminiscent of what Nintendo tried to do with the original NES console and the NES zapper (light gun), power glove, power pad, and ROB. Nice find on the pics and videos!
for sure, I had the chance to play wiht the wii yesterday at WIRED store in nyc…..super fun! I was playing wiht other complete strangers….the sensor takes a bit of getting use to for each game, but once you get it, it kicks in…even if you dont get it, it’s still fun! From what I’ve heard, the wii is outselling the ps3 and xbox…way to go nintendo!
