The Nintendo Wii is going to be a revolutionary console and arguably the only true “next-gen” system, instead of merely updated graphics and sound. To take this revolution further the Wii is bringing a whole new concept to the video game console. Think Wii online marketplace, Wii web browsing, Wii Instant Message, and other Wii communication devices.
The Wii Message Board will be the central hub for communications online with your Nintendo Wii. Mr. Tamaki of Nintendo gives some insight into the central idea of Wii online.
…with the Wii Message Board, users can exchange game data or screenshots. E-mail messages can also be exchanged between mobile phones and Wii. Sorry to keep using families for all the examples…! (laughs) But imagine the father is working late at the office. His family can send him messages via Wii from the living room. Then he could reply by sending a photo. We’d like people to think of Wii as allowing them to feel they are connected, in a loose, relaxed way, with their friends and family…
Consider the advantages of a relaxed online atmosphere, focused on fun. After spending too many stressful nights in XboxLive this gamer is looking forward to a laid back alternative. Check out what else is in store for the Wii online here.
