The Wii

Well, E3 has been over now for several weeks and I believe and many others will agree that the standout of the expo was Nintendo and the Wii.  Personally, I cannot wait until it is released here in the UK so that I can get a feel of how the Wiimote works and play such great games like Wario Ware: Smooth Moves and Super Mario Galaxy amongst others.

Time will tell whether it will be released and what the exact price of it is but we know at the moment that it will be no more than $250 meaning it probably will be around £200 or a bit more but we know it will be much less than the PS3.  It would be best if it was released before the PS3 since people will still get that considering the ridculous price on it.  The TGS (Tokyo Game Show) will be my best bet where they will provide more details on the Wii and see whether it will be released before or after the PS3 in November.

Nintendo should be proud to do something innovative even though it has somehow in a way been done before but I will be looking forward to see what it is like and hopefully will do better than the Gamecube, as although GC is a great console, it is the weakest of the three current-gen onsoles in terms of sales, popularity and games.
