Nintendo Gamecube
Having made its debut in November 2006, the Wii has enjoyed great success ever since. Known far and wide for its wireless controls, the Wii has been able to create devotees out of those who have never showed a prior interest in video games. Since its release, the Wii has made headlines than any other video game console. This is mostly due to its benefits in the area of active play phenomenon. At a base price of $250, which includes one controller and basic setup accessories, the Wii can also be found in complete bundle packages that include games and accessories starting at $350 and on up.
The main features of the Nintendo Wii are its wireless controllers referred to as Wii Remotes and a lightweight 6x8 console in a vertical stand. At a weight of less than three pounds, the console is now known as the lightest pieces of gaming technology available. The console currently only comes in white; however, other colors such as silver, black and red are slated for arrival in the near future. One of the top features of this console is the ability to play not only Wii games but other Nintendo console games. This can include all GameCube games and even games downloaded off the internet.
The Wii is most widely known for providing players with active play experience. Wii Remotes and their infrared sensors detect position and movement, allowing players to swing, jab, toss, bowl, shoot, drive, cast and much more. The active play experience not only gives games a realistic feel, it, unlike other game consoles, gets the player up and moving. A vast number of parents and teachers that were previously uneasy with video games have managed to make peace with the idea of active play. Many are still wary about the number of hours spent playing video games but are much more comfortable with what time is spent on the Wii.
The Wii is not only found in homes but in occupational and behavioral therapy settings, hospitals and even retirement homes. The number of games, lack of wires and user friendly set up makes it easy to use for those who are younger or older, with or without video game skills. The fact that the Wii Remote requires action to be effective has made it an extraordinary physical therapy tool. Whereas other activities can seem repetitive and monotonous, some therapists have found that certain games can be of great help for patients needing large or small motor therapy. It gives patients the benefit of focusing on fun and therapists a covert method for rebuilding and enhancing motor skills.
