Nintendo Wii System Reviews

Video Transcript

"Oh, planted it! Hi, I'm Rokosz, your digital lifestyle expert, and I'm here to give you a review on the Nintendo Wii. It's going to be a short review, awesome, simply awesome! Seriously, my family, myself, my friends; we use this gaming system. Actually, it came to us before it really hit the market. No idea of what it was. The pre-press was just coming out. I put it in, started to use it, and unbelievably fantastic. All right, what makes it different? Sure, each of the major gaming systems have their own type of controllers, and Nintendo no less. They've got things like this and a little different takes on it. But what sets the Wii apart, even though it is one of the only modern gaming systems that is not truly a high definition game; it doesn't play Blu-ray discs, or HD DVD discs, what are those, but it does have an adapter that it can be brought up to be, to get the best quality in an HD monitor. It's this bad boy right over here and its bad boy buddy. The main Wii controller and its partner the Nunchuk is what sets this game absolutely apart. As you can see even here with Mario Kart I'm going to use a button here for acceleration, and I'm going to steer the game just by moving my hands. You can see here as I do it one handed; not very well, but I'm doing nothing but holding down the gas. It's responding to just my movements, and my friends, that is where it really sets it apart. If you're playin' baseball you're swingin' for baseball. If you're playing golf you're swingin' for golf. If you're boxin', boom, step it up. And it really, in my opinion an experience. It has really opened it up for people of all ages. If you've never seen an eighty five year old guy play golf on a Wii or on a video game system; I mean seriously, fifty year olds that grew up just outside of the the Nintendo, the Intellisivion, The Atari area; it's bringing everybody back to games because you don't need to master this to be able to play a video game. If you're going to play baseball choke up, swing it out of the park. We'll see you next time. I'm Rokosz, your digital lifestyle expert. Wii ya' later."
