The two Wii features Nintendo thinks will create new levels of gaming community are built-in Wi-Fi access, supported by a new online gaming service, and Wii's intuitive, wireless, motion-sensitive game controller.
Nintendo keeps things simple with the Wii. It comes in only one version, which, at about $250 / £175 , costs significantly less than the Xbox 360 or the PlayStation 3. The Wii also includes one pleasant surprise, a simple but infectious game called Wii Sports that lets users get a feel for the system's wireless controller. You can swap the remote back and forth to play golf or to bowl, but if you want to play tennis or baseball head-to-head, you will need to purchase at least one more controller.

For "serious" gaming, the Xbox 360 is probably a better platform with great high-definition graphics which is nearly photo-realistic. But when people come over to play, the Wii gets favored over and over again. The graphics look a little cartoonish, but the gameplay with the innovative controller is so addictive no-one really seems to care.
One word of advise: If you get a Wii, make sure you also get an S-Video or Component cable to hook it up to your display at home. It will improve your whole gaming experience quite a lot. The composite cable that the console comes with is the only serious oversight Nintendo made with this otherwise nearly perfect product.
