Since last thursday we've got our early easter present for the year: a Nintendo Wii. Until then we didn't had a console and only my kids are playing games on the computer. But allready the next day we've had aching muscels. And since then we've been playing almost every evening. We don't watch TV, we're creating it. *smile*
Asking my wife if she could have imagine this one year ago she negated it. So I asked, why she now has so much fun. The answer was quite simple: You don't just sitting on your sofa pressing buttons on a controller. Instead you've got to make real moves.
So the secret behind the Wii success isn't just a controller with a motion sensor. But the controller - together with the nunchuck - are designed for playing games with motion. And more and more games will support that. No high-end graphics, no blue-ray disc, but a cheap price paired with a real innovative idea of how to control the games, that's it.
P.S.: I'm really looking forward to play the games online with other Wii owners.
