The editors didn't like
Not all Wii channels are functional
Graphics are not the greatest
Were knackered
Apple TV 2.2
Alienates the hardcore fraternity. Only standarddef visuals.
But there’s a downside to Nintendo’s pursuit of this new demographic - it has sidelined the hardcore gamers that were its previous bread 'n' butter audience. Whilst the Wii is well served when it comes to short
Simple mini games and m...
Doesn't play DVDs
No HD output
Graphics cant compete with the Xbox 360 and PS3
Games still expensive
Opera browser not included as standard
Needs Flash upgrade
Media functions could be better
Poor battery life for controllers
Some disappointing titles
Basic
Standard-def graphics. No multiplayer online gaming. Not all games suit the format. No DVD playback.
Low battery life for GamePad
GamePad range potentially very limited
Basic edition's memory is meagre
No cross-game chat
Controller eats batteries and takes some time to get used to
Lacks the advanced hi-def graphics and surround sound found on the Xbox 360 and the PS3
Requires a wired receiver unit placed near the TV to interface with wireless controllers

It lacks the graphical prowess and rich media features of the Xbox 360 and the PS3, but the Nintendo Wiis combination of unique motion-sensitive controllers and emphasis on fun gameplay make the ultra-affordable console hard to resist.
Abstract: You will not pry the Nintendo DS out of my 9 year old nephews hands with anything less than a thermonuclear blast. I suspect the same thing is going to happen after he gets his paws on the Nintendo Wii. What a fun experience it is. Mind you, my wife i...

The Nintendo Wii Hardware Bundle (with Mario Kart) has a lot going for it: clean, accessible design; a great library of family-friendly games; a still-iconic controller design that can be used for motion games or more traditional button-based games; Virtu
Online connectivity is hampered by closed-garden design; graphics and video playback cap at 480p; other than Netflix, the Wii has no other video-streaming or entertainment offerings, and can't play CDs or DVDs; its graphics continue to look ever more outd
For families and lovers of casual games, the even more affordable Wii still represents the best console bundle value in terms of dollars spent, but it's also the system that's first on deck to be outdated. With the announcement of the Wii U, the Wii is a...
