Nintendo Wii "Experience" Videos Posted

Tags: Nintendo, Wii



Nintendo has posted a series of 8 videos showing the "experience" of playing their new Wii game console due November 19th. They're organized by country and have players of varied age and race enjoying their first time with the controller. The "revolutionary" concept of the Wii, contends Nintendo, is the physical movement involved with using the the new controller, the "Wiimote".

Whether the novelty of the game play revolutionizes how people interact with games or if the control scheme just becomes gimmicky and doesn't catch on remains to be seen, and played.

What's interesting is that you see only a tiny bit of actual game play video in these clips, the camera largely is pointed at the people as they play the game.

Check out the hot U.S. girl and the elderly Japanese couple who are so cute they must have been made in a Sanrio Cute Japanese Grandparents Factory™.

Nintendo DS started as a bit of a gimmick, and now they're some fantastic games for it. I really hope Ninty don't fuck up Wii like they fucked up GameCube.

Alos, I'm glad that there's no images from the games because they always remind just how bad I am at playnig them. frown
