Wii Black
Coloured
Wii consoles could be the next wave of changes Nintendo announce in
their Christmas build up this year. Rumour has it a White PS3 Slim will
also go into production shortly. Nintendo already provide a range of
colours for the DS Lite console, which came about after having only two
colours initially before Nintendo added one of every colour almost.
The
specification will probably remain the same albeit with different Wii
firmware and Software which would be in their System update for general
release anyway. The exciting addition to the Nintendo Wii since 2006 is
the all new Wii Motion Plus Wii mote accessory providing more realistic
motion detection in new Wii games. The Wii remote, depending on the
sport can be used for a variety of purposes, from swinging a golf club
to driving a kart. The controller the Nunchuk is used far less in games,
but always attaches to the Wii mote.
What else might happen?
Well the new Wii Sports Resort game is unlikely to replace the original
Wii Sports. Despite the critics of Wii Sports Resort, the game is likely
to be one of the biggest titles Nintendo launch in 2009. Sports Island
by Konami bridged the gap for the Wii gamers who longed for more sports
games on Wii. After all the Nintendo Wii console and sports are synonyms
now. An achievement their rivals would be proud of. Digressing to
Sports Island for a minute, of the 10 sports on offer only 50% are any
good. Sports only really come into their own when playing against
people, the Wii as an opponent takes more effort. Of those the archery
is similar to Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games with much simpler
controls. On the whole many of the sports use simple controls compared
to sport Sims. Tiger Woods 2010 being the perfect example of difficult
but highly specialised controls. Oh not forgetting Tiger Woods 2010 is
one of the few Nintendo Wii motion plus compatible games.
Wii Black
A
black Nintendo Wii console wouldn't be complete without a matching
black Wii mote and a black Nunchuk; somehow I doubt the console would be
viable without providing matching black accessories.
