  • Controls don't suit some game types
  • Old console
  • No new games coming
  • No online functionality
  • No high-def
  • Poor graphics. Cant back up saved games. Doesnt play DVDs.
  • The controllers take a bit of getting used to and for those of us with big hands would benefit from wider spacing between buttons as unintentional presses at key moments can be more than a little annoying. While the Wii doesn't play DVD's

  • Small, cute, interactive, cheap, innovative
  • Graphics, lack of home entertainment features
  • Although the graphics arent up to what gamers will be expecting for a next generation console, the gameplay and its interactivity will have you jumping around the living room with joy

  • It looks super sexy!, Wiimote and Nunchuck are a match made in heaven, Some superb games, Even the user interface is fun, Retro games, Top marks for creativity
  • Not all Wii channels are functional, Graphics are not the greatest, Were knackered
  • Wii doesn’t have cutting edge visuals by any means, although we were surprised at the artistic creativity in the likes of Rayman Raving Rabbidds and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess where the games are colourful and attractive to play. Compare...

  • The most fun gaming experience ever. Motion-sensitivity better than PS3’s tilt joypad. Great price. Sega classics available to download online.
  • Basic, standard-def graphics. No multiplayer online gaming. Not all games suit the format. No DVD playback.
  • Pure fun in a box. Get some friends round and swing your Wiimote until the early hours ...

  • Abstract:  a refreshingly different home games console: A bit of an odd review, this one, and we should fess up at the start. Weve not had a Nintendo Wii to review on our own testbed. Instead, we were invited to a house in ...
