Are Wii the children of the revolution

There has been quite a bit of hype surrounding the new Ninetendo Wii gaming system. Some say that the Wii's ability to "democratize" gaming for people of all ages and abilities is revolutionary. Do you think this is a true technological revolution or just hype? Please defend your opinion.What makes Nintendo Wii so special? Is it because of its ability to "democratize" gaming for people of all ages or is it because of its unique gaming system, which lets you play by motion control?Personally, I think that its revolutionary not because people of all ages can play it but because of its unique gaming system. When playing a video game, how many times have you caught yourself actually moving the same way you’re moving your character or whatever it is that you’re moving? Ok, maybe some of you don’t do that or would like to admit that they do. But I know for sure that sometimes when I play racing games and I have to turn the car I end up turning my body too as if it helps me play any better. When playing Nintendo Wii, it makes it so much easier to play and you won’t actually have to make up an excuse as to why you were moving. Nintendo Wii is revolutionary as far as gaming systems go but technology in general I’m not so sure. I think it might have helped us get closer to a true technological revolution but as far as I’m concerned I think people are just exaggerating a bit too much.When Nintendo Wii first came out, a lot of people were thinking, “Oh My God, I want that! It’s so cool!” However, at that time, I think it was just hype because it was the newest thing in gaming systems it was far better than the existing, psp and xbox. However, I’m sure that as soon as a new gaming system comes out people will forget what was so special about Wii and move on to the next best thing.
