Despite being less technologically advanced than the over-hyped, over-priced, underwhelming PS3, the Nintendo Wii offers tons of fun, accessible play and a truly revolutionary controller to gaming enthusiasts and newcomers alike. With a solid stable of launch games, including a huge library of titles from the past there truly is something here for everyone. The brilliance of the Wii remote and Nunchuk controllers is that even casual gamers, who are not accustomed to the use of two thumbsticks, naturally understand how to accurately control action on-screen. Couple ease-of-use with killer games like The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and there just isn’t much cooler out there. And get this, it even comes with Wii Sports!!! A game included with a console? Madness, we say! But the best kind of madness: FREE GAME madness.
So, there you have it; our picks for the coolest gear of 2006. From your friends at GWN, we would like to wish you and yours happy holidays, and all the gaming goodness you could possibly dream of.
