About Me

The Nintendo Wii is what was up until recently referred to as the Nintendo Revolution. The Nintendo Wii's purpose is to set out into the gaming industry and revolutionize the way people look at and play video games, as well as bring new consumers into the market.With a revolutionary new control scheme, Nintendo looks to create a new norm in the game industry.
Nintendo at E306 recently announced plans of a Wii online service called WiiConnect24.
Using this new online service, players can play against eachother all over the world. Also, since the Wii is "the console that never sleeps", the service can also allow players to awake in the morning and find that a friend has visited their town in Animal Crossing or find that a developer has given them such things as a power-up or an extra item.
The Nintendo Wii is set to release by Thanksgiving 2006 (November 23rd). Nintendo's Corporate President Sotoru Iwata said he believes that to get support from the North American market they will need to release the console by the holiday shopping season. Expect the console sometime this fall. Mr. Iwata has also gone on record stating that the Wii will cost no more than $250, leaving the price way below the competition.
