Nintendo Wii Black

Global Description:

The Nintendo Wii Black was a late-2009 update to the original white console, which was released three years earlier. While the hardware itself was no different to the previous version, it did provide to gamers another option in terms of colour co-ordination with their home entertainment system.

Technology has certainly evolved since the Wii was first introduced to the market as a successor to the GameCube, boasting an innovative approach to competitive gaming. This fifth home console from the video game giant, which is fully backwards compatible with titles developed for the former device, still has plenty to offer and is a highly affordable and top quality machine for playing motion games.

Now included with the console is the Wii MotionPlus Remote, Wii Nunchuk Controller in black, plus the addictive title Wii Sports as well as its direct sequel Wii Sports Resort. The great value to be found within the Nintendo Wii Black bundle means that the games console is able to hold its own against the strong competition coming from the likes of Sony's PlayStation 3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360.

The Wii has always been especially popular with casual gamers and families as these devices are perfect for social gatherings. The great range of titles will get everyone involved and this package is sure to give you hours upon hours of top entertainment.

Features/Characteristics:

The competitive pricing of the Nintendo Wii Black bundle ensures that the gaming machine is still regarded as the least expensive when compared with its peers. The MotionPlus feature is now built in to the controller and you also get a Nunchuk packaged along with this highly affordable console.

When you open the Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort games, now included with the Nintendo Wii Black, you will be amazed at how many activities there are in each pack. There are such a wide variety of sports to play against your family and friends, including tennis, golf, sword-fighting and boxing. This proves to be extremely good value and so you shouldn't feel the sudden need to go out and buy a load more games right away.

Maybe the Nintendo Wii Black is no longer able to create such a stir in terms of its next generation capabilities - with most of its rivals also launching their own alternatives to the motion games which used to be exclusive to the Wii - but there are still many plus points to owning this games console.

Despite the fact that the Nintendo Wii Black is not on a par with Sony or Microsoft in terms of online gaming, Nintendo's offering is still highly effective at what it does best - which is to provide a gaming console suitable for people of all ages, in keeping with the brand image. Nintendo have always produced entertaining and fun games such as Donkey Kong, Zelda and the Mario Bros series. You can rest assured that most of the colourful Wii games are designed for children to enjoy too.

As well as its wide appeal to gamers of all backgrounds, the Nintendo Wii Black has an impressive games catalogue and most of the top titles are released onto this format. Nintendo created such buzz when they first brought us the likes of Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus. This innovative kind of thinking made keeping fit more fun and interesting and its Balance Board technology made exercise something which could be done easily at home.

In terms of style, the design of the Nintendo Wii Black is an exciting contrast to the white model. The console is sure to find itself welcome alongside your other TV and audio equipment, making for a more complete home entertainment system. There is no lack of connectivity with the Nintendo Wii Black either, as its two USB ports are ample.

Whether you are playing traditional or motion games, the Nintendo Wii Black controller does not have any issues with its usability.

With regards to drawbacks relating to the Nintendo Wii Black, the lack of an ability to play DVDs and CDs will certainly be a concern to some who are looking for more of an all-rounder, but as most homes are equipped with at least one dedicated player nowadays it is only a minor complaint.

If you are expecting high level graphics and HD options then you may not be too impressed either, but the Nintendo Wii Black definitely makes up for this lack of power through the playability of its games. For those looking for top quality entertainment that the whole family will be able to enjoy, then the Nintendo Wii Black is still an excellent choice of gaming console.

To conclude, the Nintendo Wii Black is a user-friendly machine which offers exceptional value to gamers. If you are thinking about buying this particular bundle, then you can make your selection from the many options now available online. This includes top deals from the biggest names in retail.
