As we all might know it is coming on 19 November 2006.
The Wii console is key to Nintendo's future success.
The company has just posted a 19% drop in annual profits, warning that results for its current financial year will be weaker than previously expected.
It is looking to the launch of the Wii to help its bottom line. Nintendo plans to ship six million consoles by March next year and aims to sell 17 million games for it.
The Controller
The console has a one-handed controller that looks like a TV remote control.
It uses motion-detection sensors that allow players to control the game by moving the controller in the air.
Controls: Intuitive control for anyone using the physical motion of the main Wii Remote, which resembles a television remote control. Up to four Wii Remotes can be connected at once using wireless Bluetooth technology. The wireless signal can be detected within 10 meters of the console. Both the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers include a three-axis motion sensor. The Wii Remote also includes a speaker, rumble feature and expansion port, and can be used as a pointer within 5 meters of the screen. The Wii Remote has a power switch, plus pad, A, B, Minus, Home, 1 and 2 buttons. The Nunchuk controller includes an analog control stick and C and Z buttons.
The controller modification.
Not convinced by the remote control or just interested in standard gaming. Nintendo has not forgotten about the retro audience and they made a retro controller that looks similar to the Super Nintendo design. This can be used when players want to play Gamecube, Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis and Turbo Grafix 16 games.

Price & Availability
The Wii will cost 25,000 yen or lower in Japan and $250 (£133) or less in the US, said Nintendo as it revealed its financial results.
The company added it aims to sell six million machines by March 2007.
Over time, gaming has become overwhelming to people. Wii returns gaming to simpler times while innovating game development at the same time. The unique Wii Remote gives parents and grandparents a chance to play games with their children. It gives gamers and traditional non-gamers a chance to share the same experiences in this new generation of gaming. For those who grew up on video games, Wii shows that games have not outgrown them
Wii makes you feel less like a player and more like you're in the game. Frenzied sword battles are no longer confined to pushing a button. With Wii's unique freehand controller, Nintendo puts you in the middle of the action. Forget about pushing a button to start a golf back swing. Wii lets you swing the club! Don't push a button to swing a sword, actually swing the sword. Video games have always been a part of you, now you get to be a part of them. Step up to the next level of gaming.
Wii?
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 are probably asking: What does the name mean?
Wii sounds like we or wee 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.
The Look: Wii features a compact design that will make it a natural addition to any television setup. It can be displayed either vertically or horizontally.
Media: A single self-loading media bay will play single- or double-layered 12-centimeter optical discs for Wii, as well as 8-centimeter Nintendo GameCube discs.
Communication: Wii can communicate with the Internet even when the power is turned off. This WiiConnect24 service delivers a new surprise or game update, even if users do not play with Wii. Users can connect wireless using IEEE 802.11b/g, or with a USB 2.0 LAN adapter. Wii also can communicate wireless with Nintendo DS.
