I dont know, based on how incredibly high these stupid consoles are selling for on eBay. I might find myself pusing someone around to get one, it's ridiculous. I would say a decent % of people waiting in line sold the PS3 on eBay.

It's a little hard to explain it. It is basically Nintendo's next gen console aimed at fun and exciting gameplay over stunning graphics. It's cheaper and does not have all the gizmos and gadgets as the PS3 or the Xbox 360. There is also the Wii-mote. The motion sensored remote control you basically use for everything.

Just wiki about the Wii.
 
you hook it up 2 your tv, right? then you use the drumstick like things as swords or whatever, if you were playing that type of game?

Do you mean the controller? The controllers are motion sensing, so if you swing it, it would be able to swing the sword in a game. Looks pretty cool, but I dont know how well it works.

I have heard that it is pretty responsive. You have to place like a sensing reciever either on top or below your TV so it can properly pick up the remote.
 
They call them the nunchuck, and its not motion sensing, its a gyroscope (see wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscope ). This allows for much more than just motion sensing.

The controller is dubbed the nunchuck, and they are bluetooth. On one end you hvae the remote which has triggers and buttons on it, and also allows you to execute commands with gestures or motions with the gyroscope.

The Wii is actually going to have more gadjets and extra devices than any other system it is said. An exclusive RE type gun controller when the new RE comes out. They are releasing vintage like controllers for all your old Nintendo games, it has built in wifi, and I can only assume that your DS lite can connect to it via Wifi. It takes SD memory cards which allows you to transfer rom files from older downloaded games. Considering how cheap the dev kit is for the Wii, and if you already are a dev and have a gamecube kit you can just use that one, I think you will see lots of third party devices of all sorts for the Wii.

The Wii is also completely backwards compatable to all nintendo prodcuts, we are talking over 20 years of backwards compatability.
 
the console is $250

The games are going to range from $30.00 ~ $50.00 it is said

The virutal console games (sega, turbo graffix, NES, SNES, N64) are downloadable and the prices are expected to range from free to $5.00. I don't see them charging for something like duck hunt, that is probably going to be free, as will the original super mario bros.

You can download them via nintendos online service (which is free, but you have to buy the web browser) and I am willing to bet you can probably download them on to your PC and transfer the files via SD card.
 
Doubt you need the web browser to download the games, because if you did how would you download the web browser, its all from the same wii shop thing. But according to this article the opera browser for the wii will be free until like June of '07 as a promo.
