Nintendo's Wii video game system (pronounced "we") is designed to
attract people, regardless of their age or video game experience, to
sit down and play together--whether they're in the same room or on
different sides of the globe. The system's name reflects this simple
idea. It's easily pronounced in a variety of languages, and the
distinctive spelling suggests two players side by side. The two Wii
features Nintendo thinks will create new levels of gaming community are
built-in Wi-Fi access, supported by a new online service, and Wii's
intuitive, wireless, motion-sensitive game controller.
As with every new console release, much of the buzz surrounds the
specs. The system boasts 512 MB of internal flash memory, two USB 2.0
ports, and a slot for SD memory expansion. Wii's technological heart --
a processing chip developed with IBM and code-named "Broadway" and a
graphics chipset from ATI code-named "Hollywood" -- are said to deliver
stunning performance. Instead of a tray, Wii uses a single,
self-loading media bay that will play both 12-centimeter optical discs
used for the new system, as well as Nintendo GameCube discs.
The real revolution in this system, though, is its controller,
called the Wii Remote. Shaped like a TV remote, it's been designed to
be easily used by beginners and pros alike. Sensors determine the Wii
Remote's position is in 3-D space, which means that racing-game
steering and a tennis swing, for example, are done through movements of
your hand rather than by just your thumbs. What's more, a tiny speaker
built into the Wii Remote promises some interactive surround sound
experiences. The controller also has a force feedback "Rumble" feature
and an expansion port for use with accessories, such as the Nunchuck,
which adds an analog thumbstick and trigger buttons. An adapter that
fits over the Wii's wee remote will be available for those who prefer
the feel of a traditional controller. The Wii Remote communicates via
the Bluetooth wireless standard. Up to four remotes can connect to Wii.
