Approximately the size of three stacked DVD cases, the Wii's elegant, compact design makes it a natural addition to your entertainment setup without monopolising it. Thanks to the Wii Remote, you're given more freedom to place the console where it best suits your lifestyle.

Controls: Intuitive control for anyone using the physical motion of the main Wii Remote, which resembles a television remote control. Up to four Wii Remotes can be connected at once using wireless Bluetooth technology. The wireless signal can be detected within 10 metres of the console. Both the Wii Remote and Nunchuk include a three-axis motion sensor. The Wii Remote also includes a speaker, rumble feature and expansion port, and can be used as a pointer within 5 metres of the screen. The Wii Remote has a Power switch, +Control Pad, A Button, B Button, - Button, + Button, Home Button and 1 and 2 Buttons. The Nunchuk includes an analogue control stick and C and Z Buttons.

Media: A single self-loading media bay will play single or double-layered 12-centimetre optical discs for the Wii, as well as 8-centimetre Nintendo GameCube discs.

Communication: The Wii can communicate with the Internet even when the power is turned off. This WiiConnect24 service delivers a new surprise or game update, even if users do not play with Wii. Users can connect wirelessly using IEEE 802.11b/g, or with a Wii LAN adaptor. Wii can also communicate wirelessly with Nintendo DS.

Other features: Four ports for classic Nintendo GameCube controllers. Two slots for Nintendo GameCube Memory Cards. An AV multi-output port for component, composite or S-video.

Virtual Console: It has been more than 20 years since the debut of the NES. Since then, a rich heritage of different gaming platforms and countless games has come and gone. A wide selection of Virtual Console games is available to download from the Internet via the Wii Shop Channel.

Okay, I admit, I have been a Nintendo fan for a long time. But I wasn't impressed with the Game Cube. It was all Ps2 for me. But Nintendo have certainly raised the bar and obviously competing with X Box 360 and the PS3. So the Wii is never gonna compete for serious play with the other two but for fun, enjoyability, originality and family involvement, the Wii will reign supreme.

Wii sports is a fun package but if you can get games such as Mario/Sonic Olympics and Mario Kart Wii, plus others, you'll have hours of fun. The Wii remote and nunchuks make for strangely enjoyable game play and the Wii Fit is revolutionary. You can have fun, deal with multi tasks and nearly all the games make for a good workout.

Definitely recommended!!!!

I've long been an avid fan of nintendo, but thats not to say that i am a nintendo fanboy. Personally, what strikes me the most about the wii is the fact, that its true to what it is, and that is a games console. When I buy a games console, I don't expect it to play dvds and cds, thats why i go out and buy a dvd and cd player, also I have to say that the wii has the best exclusives out of the 3 current gen consoles. With games like Mario Galaxy, Mario Kart, Metroid Prime 3, Zelda, Resident Evil 4 and Super Paper Mario, this is a console that iks crying out to the hardcore and not just casual gamer. The fact, that it doesn't play blu-ray etc, is totally fine by me, I'm just happy to get a brand new console for 180 quid. It does everything I want it to for that price. The only fault I find with the console is the ''friend-codes''. They need changing into an equivalent to xbox's ''gamertags''. A brilliant console for such a cheap price.
