Wiiiiiiiiiiiiii

After months of anticipation, the Wii is finally here.....sorta. Brian managed to secure one after about 8 days, and I'm still trying to track one down. Here are some pics of the Wiimote, and Brian playing Wii Sports: Boxing.

We knew the Wiimote was small, but it's even smaller than you would think. It feels great in the hand although it can get slippery if you get into the game. The use of the speaker and rumble in the Wiimote add a nice extra bit of immersion. In the console menus, the remote rumbles slightly when the pointer moves over a button. It gives a sort of tactile feel to the on-screen buttons.
