out of 10View score
The bad: Controller eats batteries and takes some time to get used to; lacks the advanced HD graphics and surround sound found on the Xbox 360 and the PS3; requires a wired receiver unit placed near the TV to interface with wireless controllers; can't play CDs or DVDs.
The bottom line: It lacks the graphical prowess and rich media features of the Xbox 360 and the PS3, but the Nintendo Wii's combination of unique motion-sensitive controllers and emphasis on fun gameplay make the ultra-affordable console hard to resist.

Pros: Innovative controls, fun gameplay
Cons: Game library still not as diverse, but it is getting better. You also east up AA batteries quite fast
Opinion:
Every home in the world should have a Wii. If the British government is contemplating on having Wii's in schools, Surgeons use it to improve dexterity, and retirement Homes in America have it to entertain their seniors, then you know Nintendo has made a winner.
What other console lets you jump on turtles, play out your dreams of being McDreamy/P. Burke, and slash assassins all while looking like magician with a magical wand?
The game library needs more titles though, especially on the sports side where decent titles are few (Wii Sports and Madden 08 are not enough!)
Do you like to have fun? Then get a Wii!
Wonderful gaming experience

Pros: Revolutionary way to play a game.
Cons: Haven't found any yet.
Opinion:
I have never spent more than 10 mins playing any games since I own a playstation I in my family. But Wii changes everything, the whole family becomes addicted to the revolutionary way of playing a computer game. I realise that my budget began to overshot since I started buying the racquets, boxing gloves, sword and guns for the remote controller.
Don't try getting it if you are busy. Else, you might just drop everything and start wiing.
