Classic Game Room reviews the NINTENDO Wii video game console! The Wii could be Nintendo's best console since the original NES Nintendo Entertainment System. The Wii is a revolutionary gaming system and this Wii review shows what makes the Wii special vs. the PS3 and the Xbox 360. Is the Wii for you, would you rather play Wii fit or shoot things with massive laser cannons in HDTV graphics? The Wii may not be hi-def but it is hi-tech (owwww, that sucked!) and has a really unique controller that uses motion sensing technology and a nunchuk to make actions happen on the screen. The Wii is marketed as a unique social gaming console with a more family appropriate array of games. It gets you up off the couch (if you want that… boo standing!) and can have you dacing around the room playing games like Wii Sports Bowling, Golf and Far Cry Vengeance. This is a unique CGR review of the Wii not seen anywhere else, where Classic Game Room pours 30+ years of gaming experience over the Wii. Does the system have what it takes to be successful (it already is), will the Wii sell out in stores (yes), will the Wii dominate the universe in a way not seen since the Atari 2600??? With the unique controller, Nintendo proprietary games like Mario Cart, Super Smash Brothers Brawl and Metroid Prime 3 Corruption one could say the Wii has a chance… Wii vs. PS3 vs. Xbox 360. Bring it on into Classic Game Room stadium!

They acctually listened to him heh

I can pretty much shoot down most wii accusations made by 360 and ps3 fanboys
motion controls sucks: Buy a classic controller, but some games benefit from motion controls, you are not forced to use the motion though
the graphics suck: No they dont, the good games on it look good, the only problem was it couldnt handle games like gta 4 and assassins creed but I think some titles made up for that
its kiddie: Monster hunter 3,metroid prime 3,no more heroes 2,madworld,zelda twlight princess,zelda skyward sword, manhunt,goldeneye, red steel 2, xenoblade chronicles, resident evil 4,
online sucks: I remember playing cod black ops,smash bros and mario kart just fine online, true friend codes were a pain but really its not such a big deal as long as online multiplayer works
call of duty rules!: And wii has it with better controls, since you can actually point like an actual gun the aiming is perfectly accurate, those analog sticks cant be comfortable for aiming
wii titles can never hold up to uncharted and heavy rain: Heavy rain isnt a real game sorry, I like the story but it should not count as an actual game, as for uncharted I love that franchise but: Super mario galaxy and xenoblade chronicles are both equally as amazing for many people

No, you aren’t playing SMG2 in 720p, the max output of the console is 480p.
CapitalTeeth
Anyone ever played Sonic Colors? That game fucking pushed the Wii to it’s limits when it came to graphics.
Ludicrous Shows
Arctic It’s not a bad console. I would even say there are quite a few great games on it. But you can’t deny it had way too much shovelware on it.

Speaking of online, sadly Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ain’t around no more, but stuff happens these days.

Hacked Wii is also compatible with almost every older consoles like PSX and NES or Sega

“It all goes back to marketing. Something that Nintendo has excelled at for decades.” Too bad that is no longer true. The Wii U is a great machine, but marketing is one of the primary reasons it is failing in the market at this time. Hopefully that changes before its too late…

I have come here to revive this chain of old replies the Switch is definitely great

@TheKHfan358over3d the price of games are somewhat shitty.

@TheKHfan358over3d The Switch is sort of like the Wii Advantage mock up at the end of this video!

I prefer the GameCube over the Wii. GameCube is awesome. You can play an entire library of Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance games on your GameCube by using the Game Boy Player accessory. I never owned a Wii, but it sure looks cool because it is backwards compatible with GameCube game discs, GameCube controllers and GameCube memory cards.

Such irony because the Millennium Falcon kind of took out the Death Star…..just pointing that out there
Tali' Zorrah
Well the wii did outsell the ps3 and 360 miraculously so yeah pretty much.

@***** no it didn’t
Turrican Rocks
liftlash98 it did outsell ps3 and 360

Mark predicted the future of nintendo because they listened to him, he taped an nes advantage to a Wii and thus, the Wii U was born

Dammit Mark… What have you done…?!

The Wii is almost ready to celebrate it’s 10th anniversary! Oh gosh! I remember when the Wii was the console to have.

@Paul Barnes The Wii is a ripoff of Xbox 360 and Nintendo 64!
Paul Barnes
@GambleRogersYesJustinBieberNo I disagree the Wii is a completely different console altogether.
charger master
notice how he said if nintendo manufactures a new version of the wii in tje future take it of the base and nes advantage look like nintendo took his idea and made the wii u

Dexter The LaserDisc Fan N64 and Xbox 360 doesn’t have Super Mario Galaxy. Enough said.

@Paul Barnes “GambleRogersYesJustinBieberNo You’re talking complete bollocks mate.” I read that in the most offensive british/australian accent in my head XD

This console blew my mind as a kid. It was a gift from my grandparents and I always cherish and kept it since I got it as a reminder of them.

I prefer this 1st model of the Wii shown on here more than the Wii Family Edition and the Wii Mini. For 1 it’s got more features than the other 2. And I say that, because it’s got both the WiFi receiver and the GameCube compatibility. Where as the Family Edition gets rid of the GameCube compatibility and then the Mini gets rid of the WiFi receiver.

Technically, the NES is the Wii’s great-great-grandfather.
Luke Iannone
that design you made at the end… HELLO! NINTENDO SWITCH! It is the console, and it has a built in joystick and buttons! YOU INSPIRED THE SWITCH!
