Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Simply put, the Wii makes video games fun again. I had the original Nintendo and loved it. I've had some system or other since that original Nintendo, but the Wii is the first one that is as new and exciting as the original was when I was a kid.
Cons: no way to quit back to Wii menu when playing Gamecube games. You have to turn it off then on again to get back to main menu
Other Thoughts: Most fun I have ever had playing video games! If you can get your hands on one, BUY IT!

Very nice system

Pros: Well what can I say, I got this system on launch day back in November 19th of last year. I have loved gaming on this system, certain types of games just makes sense playing with the motion controller. Also packed in photo viewer, Internet browser, and the news channel to name a few makes using this system on a day to day basis a fun experience.
Cons: No DVD/Music/MP3/Video player, which I think it should have come with DVD playback.
Other Thoughts: Looking forward to Metroid Prime 3 Corruptions, The Godfather 2, NIGHTS, Super Mario Galaxy and number to games that are scheduled to come out for this system.

Good idea but comes up short

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Play classics like mario brothers and mario kart. Wii play which is included is also fun to play. Built in wifi comes in handy.
Cons: Nintendo must make a fortune on accessories. You have to buy something new with ever game you get. Graphics are completely horrible, maybe ten years ago they might have been acceptable. Not much play for how much you have to dish out for games. No dvd play back.
Other Thoughts: Good for kids not so good for adults. Mario kart is almost as fun and mario kart 64 (sad the graphics are the same).

Wii
Reviewed By: new wii owner on 2/1/2010
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Fun games, nothing beats Mario and team.
Cons: Buying this after owning PS3 for a while just doesn't measure up. I was shocked to see that Wii is not on 1080p HD. Graphics are very poor, almost ancient. I expected more.

Features
To make gaming as accessible to people of all ages and all abilities, Nintendo wanted to create a controller that was as inviting as it was sophisticated. The outcome is the Wii Remote. Nintendo fused the familiarity of a remote control with the sophistication of motion-sensing technology to come up with an input device for the ages!
Sporting the size of a traditional remote control, the wireless Wii Remote is a multifunctional device that is limited only by the game designer's imagination. In a tennis game, it serves as your racket you swing with your arm. In a driving game, it serves as your steering wheel. For first-person shooters, the Wii Remote acts as your weapon that you point at an enemy. The list of potential uses goes on and on.
In addition to its pointing and motion-sensing abilities, the Wii Remote also includes a speaker, rumble feature and expansion port for additional input devices, such as the Nunchuk.
The Classic Controller allows you to play classic games available through the Wii Shop Channel with ease. This controller is sold separately.
