Are Wii the Children of the Revolution?
To me, the Wii is truly a technological revolution.
This is because of the way you play the system. You have to actually interact with your game with the controller instead of just mashing buttons. This factor is the reason I say that this is a technological revolution. Many people who don't like gaming could be attracted to this style of play because it's more realistic and fun then just sitting down pressing some buttons. This system has the ability to appeal to all gamers around the world.
For the people that aren't into the whole "Moving around while playing" can use their Game Cube controllers to play instead. The people involved in creating the Wii stated that the purpose of this system wasn’t to battle Microsoft’s Xbox or Sony’s Play Station, but to just open up the gaming world to more people. They purposefully tried to come up with something different and unique that would attract people that don’t play on any game systems because of the way they are set up.
The name of the system even indicates that it is for everyone. Wii sounds a lot like “we” and Nintendo named it based on that.
“Wii sounds like 'we', which emphasizes that the console is for everyone. Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii”
This was said by a Nintendo executive at a press conference revolving around the Nintendo Wii. I agree with this statement because it’s true. Wii is very easy to remember and can’t get confused easily in different languages. It also symbolizes how the system was meant for everyone to be able to play and enjoy.
To me, this system really is the next technological revolution in gaming.

Hi Jonathan,
I enjoyed reading your article. The comment about the "wii" representing everyone made me think. Is nintendo adding on the w-fi online play in order to bring the world closer together?
Hey Jonathan.
I thought that your article was well thought out and gave brand new ideas about Wii and it being the revolution. Although I think that people are just hyped up about it because of the new way they are improving the gaming world. But doesn't all new game system say that?
