Through the days of GameCube, GameBoy, Entertainment System and the DS line, there was really little between the likes of Nintendo, Microsoft (Xbox) and Sony (PS) in video gaming. That was until the Wii came along, and then BANG! By now, few true-blue video gamers would dispute that Nintendo has clearly surged ahead.

Competition was always intense in the video game industry and it would take a marvel of a gizmo like the Wii to be top-dog. So far, Wii has more than lived up to its hype. It’s indeed an all-round multimedia powerhouse boasting games, movies, music, television, internet and e-messaging and mail. Having that said, the crown jewel of the Nintendo Wii is still its video games.

Everything about Wii revolves around the remote controller and Nintendo Wii Games are no exception. Its motion sensing technology makes the gaming experience feels like the real thing be it tennis, bowling, baseball, boxing and so forth. So much for the ‘couch potato’ image of video gaming as the intrinsic specialty of Nintendo Wii Games is the players’ movement.

Again, the heart of the Nintendo Wii Games technology is the wireless remote. It is super on its own as a tennis racquet, baseball bat, gun, sword or anything as profiled by the game and when accompanied by its secondary counterpart called the Nunchuck, they are simply awesome. For confirmed old-school gamers, an adaptor is available for games to be played with traditional controllers.

Unlike its predecessors, the Nintendo Wii is not predominantly kiddy. In fact, a good percentage of the most ardent Wii rockers are very matured and sophisticated adults. The range of Nintendo Wii Games caters to all ages and background. They include sports, action, cards, gambling, puzzles, strategy and many others. To-date, there are hundreds of different games to choose from, and counting.

Another key feature of the Nintendo Wii is its backward compatibility. Old favorites and classics of GameCube and Nintendo Entertainment System line are widely available in retro. Some can even be directly played with the new remote controller. GameCube controller ports are designed in and the media bay will accept GameCube discs automatically also.

Nintendo Wii Games are sold mainly through the games store. They can also be purchased and downloaded from Wii Virtual Console. Of late, heavy-duty Wii gamers are increasingly turning to third-party online download services especially for the new mainstream games. These download service providers appear to be quite a savvy alternative, at least in terms of cost.
