A videogame system released in late 2006 by Nintendo. It uses motion sensor technology and detects the movements of the wireles controller, also called the "wii-mote", and its attachment, the nunchuck.
The Wii was originally going to be called the nintendo dolphin, which was also the early
name of the nintendo gamecube, but once again the
name was over-ruled by the
name "nintendo revolution." this
name was also veto'd and the system recieved the
name "wii" just weeks before its release in
america. The wii comes with a game called "wii sports" which, like most wii games, has graphics only slightly better than that of the nintendo 64, which was released almost 10 years ago. The concept of the Wii
will get you playing it non-stop for the first couple of days that you own it, but as
soon as your wii-mote loses about half of its battery power, the whole system is fucked and the motion detector bar
will be confused as to what you are attempting to do, and thereby go in every direction you are not trying to
go. the only decent games for the wii are "avatar: the last airbender," which was dissapointing because it was so
short, "metal
slug anthology", "the legend of zelda: twilight
princess", and "Sonic and the Secret Rings." these games prosper over all others due to the fact they are not a series of poor-graphic mini-games in a poor excuse for a storyline. if you are considering buying a wii and are over the age of 10, you should instead go down to the hardware store and buy a large, $50
hammer so you can knock some sense into yourself, and then buy a half-ounce of purple kush, drive down to crazy j's house, and roll yourself a couple of fatties, because marijuana is a much better investment then a nintendo wii.
ALSO, nintendo started changing the first syllable of just about every word in the english language to "wii"
