Wii News Roundup

In my quest for finding some good reviews of the Wii which take a thoughtful approach to the analysis, I found a lot of Wii information.

Here are a roundup of some useful articles:

• Slate Magazine’s Chris Suellentrop writes “Wii is the Champion” – This review takes a thoughtful approach to evaluate what prospective Wii gamers need and are looking for. It showers some criticism on the Wii as well, so read it carefully.
• Slate Magazine’s Erik Sofge writes “Nintendon’t” – Erik Sofge brings forward a lot of problems with the Wii. Maybe he is a bit too critical, but the this article is worth reading.
• Erm, oops. The Wiimote broke my TV.
• An interesting find: Wii sensor bar doesn’t send any signals to the console (via WordPress top posts).
• A possible theory on how the Wiimote works.
• From Engadget.com, quite a few useful Wii articles:
  » A physical comparison of Wii v/s Xbox 360 v/s PS3
  » An important read before you buy the Wii – The Wii Faq
• Finally, a write up on how the light gun for Duck Hunt worked. Ahh Duck Hunt, old memories that game was fun as a kid.

Hopefully these help for anyone looking to buy the Wii.
