Nintendo Welcomes Wii

    Most gamers may know it as Nintendo Revolution, but the new name is Wii (pronounced as “we”).  As of April 27th, Nintendo’s seventh-generation video game console, their fifth home console, became the newest successor to Nintendo GameCube.  Wii is unique with the Wii Remote, or “Wii-mote”, which can be used as a handheld pointing device and as detecting motion in three dimensions.  The controller contains a speaker and a rumbling device which provides sensory feedback.


A New Style of Gaming

Wii will break down that wall that separates video game players from everybody else.
Wii will put people more in touch with their games … and each other. But you’re probably asking: What does the name mean?
Wii sounds like “we,” which emphasizes this console is for everyone.
Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.

Wii's Wireless Innovations
By: Matt Casamassina

Wireless solution provider Broadcom today announced a partnership to supply Nintendo's Wii console with the Bluetooth technology that enables the peripherals to interact with the system. According to an official release, Wii will be the first videogame console in history to use Bluetooth as the standard.

The platform's Wii-motes use Bluetooth to eliminate the need for wires. Broadcom's Bluetooth technology provides a dramatic increase in performance and reliability, as well as low latency, which in laymen's terms means perfect accuracy and response time.

In addition, Broadcom will supply Nintendo's Wii console with a single-chip, 54g Wi-Fi solution, enabling wireless connectivity for online multiplayer games and an interrupted connection to Nintendo's always-on network. Wii will further utilize Broadcom's BroadRange tech, enabling higher data rates even when players are farther away from the console.

"Broadcom's ability to supply and support custom features for both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi has enables us to provide our customers with a unique gaming experience powered by high-performance, field-proven wireless solutions," said Genyo Takeda, general manager of Nintendo's Integrated Research and Development division.
