Notice how the Wii is the game console that everyone actually likes, and has no competition. People argue on whether the XBOX or the Playstation is better, or sometimes the PSP or the NDS. However no one argues on which console is better than the Wii simply because everyone loved it lol

I think its more there's nothing it could be compared to Its practically a gamecube on steroids whereas the PS3 and 360 were over 3× more powerful than the PS2 and Xbox Same with the Wii-U you never hear anyone comparing the Wii-U to anything because it's not comparable to anything, it had simmilair specs to the 360 and PS3 but had 1080p capabilities like the Xbox One and PS4

I remember being promised a Wii if I got top grades in year 6, which I somehow did. Played it so damn much, but the crazy thing is that my parents who never played and still don't play games used to join in the bowling. The Wii is definitely unmatched in how it brought everyone together Deffo subscribed, number 123 lol

I think what really made the Wii stick for a lot of people was its usage of the internet. It may not seem like much to anyone nowadays, given how normal internet access is and how horrid the Wii's connection often was, but its just the fact of how many things you could do with the internet that it demonstrated. With the internet, they showed to the casual market that you could play games, watch videos or movies, search and shop, share your creations and opinion, get the news, and much more. Remember, the Wii released BEFORE the iPhone. What Nintendo showcased was that not only did you not need a computer or TV to stay updated and connected with people, but that the internet provided the potential for so much connectivity and community between people. There was a mention of "space aesthetic" in the video, but I'd argue what they were really doing was trying to give you a scale of the world so you could easily get connected with what was happening all over the globe.

What? You do know the PS3 and Xbox 360 did that better right? Sure the wii had things like the weather app But the PS3 and 360 could play DVDs, CDs, PS3 could play Blu-ray. Both could play MP3s, they had music apps like Groove and Pandora, and they had all the major video streaming apps like Netflix and Hulu PS3 and 360 also had internet browsers, 360 even used Bing 360 had windows media center

The video is going through puberty

if the Wii had at least an HDMI port or native 720p/1080i support it would've been the best console ever.

Bro the day I gained consciousness was the day my family got a Wii too

Actually, the Wi did have one flaw. The internal NAND storage (officially referred to as Wii System Memory) was only half a gigabyte, being 512MB, giving little space for downloading all the WiiWare and VC titles you owned. Yes, the SD card menu was a thing, but all channels had to be ran from NAND for whatever reason (likely as a way to prevent people from making homebrew *that* easy?) so the SD menu will actually just temporarily copy the title back to NAND, THEN start it. Saves and DLC (yes, some games had DLC, stored the same way as saves) also had to be stored on NAND to be used. Besides that the Wii was perfect, yeah

@@kelvinnkat I would argue lacking a digital output isn't really a flaw, they were trying to make the console as affordable yet quality as possible, and at the time A\V composite was still very common.

@@jeffystreet Now that I think about it, the darker output than expected is probably at least in part due to the Wii U outputting in a restricted (and 6-bit too, if memory serves) gamut so that may have at least played a part in my experience. But the more annoying issues that I have with it's graphics are that it always stretches on a modern display despite being supposedly built with widescreen in mind; the Wii can output in 480p in either 16:9 or 4:3 but can only render at up to 720x480 so it ends up horizontally stretching, making the image look blurry. It also has a deflicker setting which is always on (it can be turned off but only with hacks like USBLoader GX) even if it's outputting in progressive scan so it ends up making a 480p output much blurrier than it should be whether on a digital or an analog display. As for its lack of digital output capabilities, I would be more forgiving about that if it was later addressed. The PS3 released with an HDMI port and the Xbox 360 got it about a year after the console debuted, yet even five years after launch not a single model got an HDMI output despite the costs of inclusion generally being around $1-3 US.

I still have a couple of Wiis. One that was my original wii that is kept unmodded and another i got a few years ago so i could mod it. I remember playing on the wii alot when i was young. At that time I was too young to understand the internet features of the wii so most of my games were offline games or ones i could play with family. I didn't really have a giant wii game collection. I mainly played wii sports (and the later wii sports resort) with my mom alot. She doesn't really play video games but she loved wii sports. And we still boot of the wii to play wii sports from time to time. We mainly play golf and bowling. Which that reminds me i should ask her to play sometime soon. I still have my wii setup in the other room and its been a bit since I've booted up wii sports.

Christmas of 2006 was certainly a special one, iconic console that I still own and play on

Gamecube was mine (love gamecube)... wii was also a really good console

I love this video

There should be a Mario Galaxy movie that would hint out Mario Galaxy 3

This console came out my last year of highschool. I remember being really excited for this console as I loved Nintendo consoles and almost exclusively played them from SNES to GameCube. I was even one of those people that camped overnight at a best buy to get one when it came out. When I got to play it, it honestly got old really fast. Wii sports just wasn't fun in general, and I started to realized that I actually really hated motion controls and wouldn't really play anything that had them. I think I actually gave up on the console around Mario Galaxy too. The camera controls were atrocious and made the game extremely frustrating to play. I never got rid of my Wii, but I really stopped paying attention to it. Even after all these years, I still hate the console and motion controls. Easily the worst console of all time for me.
