Nintendo Wii... its FUN... how gaming SHOULD be!

The key feature of the Wii console is its wireless controller, the Wii Remote, which may be used as a handheld pointing device and can detect motion and rotation in three dimensions. The console also notably features a stand-by mode that will allow the console to use the feature WiiConnect24, enabling it to receive messages and updates over the Internet while consuming very little electrical power.
