Wii is the Biggest

So the Nintendo Wii has now topped the charts in game consoles. Wii has sold more consoles then Microsoft's XBox 360. Not only have they now sold more, but they are also still selling at about 2:1 ratio, becoming the fastest selling console in history. I personally have contributed to the Wii outselling the 360 as I now own one.

I will say this about the Wii, if you play Wii Sports like you are actually playing them, you can get a work out. If you just sit there and swing your arm...not so much. I really enjoy the motion sensing controllers. It is such an intuitive way of playing games. Since we were little playing the original Nintendo, we used the controller as a steering wheel, even though it did nothing, we would make wild motions trying to knock out our opponent. Now, it works, now we flail to knock out our opponent, we swing the controller to swing the racket, and we drive by steering. It really is fun, and I think for the coming generation, it will be a lot better than sitting statically on the couch staring at the TV...now it is truely interactive.

In my book, the Wii is the console of the future.
