A distinguishing feature of the console is its wireless controller, the Wii Remote, which can be used as a handheld pointing device and detects movement in three dimensions. Another distinctive feature of the console is WiiConnect24, which enables it to receive messages and updates over the Internet while in standby mode.

Interact with the machine

The most important evolution for Wii is the new form of player interaction. You can play really with the computer or TV set. It will go further just than a game. Because it provides a way that human can interact directly with the machine.

I think there are a lot of further uses of this technology; maybe the serious games would be one of them. Serious games mean to use the rapidly emerging term for the application of computer game and simulation approaches to training and education – is a market space that is currently at the early stages of the Technology Adoption Life Cycle.

Video games always emerge in the criticisms. People criticize that video game isolated people from the real world and isolate children from the family. Wii may change this climate, Wii sounds like 'we', which emphasizes that the console is for everyone, no matter how old are. And because of the easy interaction with the machine, all your family members can involved in the game. It provide a new way to interact with the people in the real world. I think it will not just be a innovation in the video game, it will also influence our daily lives in some certain extent.
