Man I love the Wii game system. The games are more like you are really in the game instead of just sitting there with a control in your hand playing the game on TV. Did you know that they are even putting the Wii game systems in Nursing Homes for the patients to be active and get exercise. I think that is the greatest thing. Well I read this and it surprised me, does it surprise you too?
Nintendo’s widely popular game system the Wii was hit by a decrease in sales in Japan. Nintendo hopes to regain its sales by releasing a new version of its Wii Sports game in June. The current CEO of Nintendo said in a press conference they will not be slashing prices of their hardware. “If our products are not much different from competitors’, price cuts would generate significant fresh demand. But video games are just not that kind of product.”
As of December 31, 2008 the Wii leads the generation over the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in worldwide sales. The Wii’s competitor the PlayStation 3 for the first time exceeded sales in 16 months in Japan for the month of March. The Wii Sports Resort and other new games and software will show up in Japanese stores in June to renew interest in the Wii.
