When the Nintendo Gamecube Released in 2001, It wasn't the biggest success, It was doing good at launch, but then after the Nintendo Fans got it, no one really did, in fact, even at-the-time newcomer Microsoft's console, The Xbox, sold better than it! It was probably because of the mini DVDs, instead of actual Discs, While the Playstation 2 could play DVDs and CDs, and the Xbox could with an Adapter, so at E3 2005, Nintendo's CEO then (RIP) Satoru Iwata revealed Nintendo's Next big Console, the Revolution! With actual DVD's! and a bunch of colours too! But later, Nintendo realized instead, they should use their "Blue Ocean Strategy" Meaning, Not competing with the current "Hardcore" Video Game market, but rather aiming at one no one has really tried to do! In this case, Casual Video Games, And so, Nintendo renamed the console to "Wii," with the 2 "i's" looking like 2 people, and the name is meant to sound like "We" focusing on families, so, November 2006, in North America, the first place to get the Wii, it launched. And BAM!! It became Nintendo's best selling console at that time! And was one of the top Christmas Gifts, but almost no one could get one, as it sold out everywhere! Further Boosting the demand for the console, and that leads us here.
Wii Sports is a Game that some may not even say is a game, but rather a tech Demo, and I don't think so, I think it's more an Introduction to the Wii, It uses the "Power of the Wiimote" to it's advantage, and creates one of the most fun games on the console, the Idea is so simple, that anyone can understand it! For example, to play tennis, there's no buttons or sticks involved, all you do is imagine that you're playing tennis, and the Wiimote is the tennis racket, it's THAT simple! And that is probably why a "Video Game player" turned from a nerd sitting too close to the TV to just someone.
Wii Play is basically Wii Sports 2, aka The Wii Sports Games without Sports. Including: Wielding a Gun! I get why this game sold well in the US. Then Find Mii and Pose Mii, Two back-to-back Games that won't work without a Mii, Number 1 is that you need to find 2 matching Miis or Miis that fall under the same catagory before time runs out. And Pose Mii: where you have to use the "B" button, to switch Poses, and fit the Mii into a Bubble before it pops. Then there's This Neon Hockey thing, then this Fishing Minigame, then the last 2 Games, all ending with "!" Charge! is where you ride a bull, and run over scarecrows. And then Tanks!, where you, well fire tanks, this is also the only one that uses the Nunchuck! Nothing else to say about this game other than the menu, where you can poke your Mii while other Miis walk along the back (after a while, your Mii goes to sleep!) And that the only reason people bought this was that It came with a Free, extra Wiimote!
Some people say this is the best game of all time, and they are Correct! This game really pushes the Wii, and especially when you look at it on a CRT, wow, It is great. Along with the Orchestral Soundtrack, WOW! I understand why the CD Sountrack is is such high demand now. So, It's the night of the Star Festival, a once in a lifetime event occuring every 1000 or so Years. But Bowser did what he does best, and kidnapped Peach (Of Course..) to create a "New Galaxy" And Mario also was flung into space, and now has to Save the Princess, and go back home. And using the power of not gravity, and this Star-Thing, a Luma, that when you shake the Wiimote, the Luma flings out, also flinging the enemy, and then you kick it, and it dies, this game also boosts the difficulty quite alot, by taking away most of your health, from 6, to only 3. All you need to know is you should play it.
