Nintendo Wii

There is always a lot of news about video game stuff to come around this time of year with E3 going on. I am not even going to try to be comprehensive on the Wii related E3 news, but I did not think I should totally avoid sharing at least the news from it that peaked my interest.

Number one thing that got my attention was the news about the new gizmos to add to the unique capabilities of the Wii. They are the MotionPlus, which will be released with Wii Sports 2: Resort and will add to the realisticness of the sensing of where the Wii remote is and exactly how you are moving it, and the Wii Speak, which comes out with Animal Crossing: City Folk and will allow for talking with those you play with online.

Just a few of the games with debut trailers for the Wii that I found interesting were Animal Crossing: City Folk (the sequel to the Animal Crossing Gamecube game), Wii Music (a game that will use the Wii remote to play over 40 instruments), and Defendin’ de Penguin (a real time strategy game made for kids or people like me who are not that great at these types of games).
