Is the Wii the best for movies?The battle for the living room is growing in intensity. The latest announcement from Warners on delivering movies to the Wii (in Japan) is not the first or last of its kind, but it did make me stop to think about video games consoles and which one makes the best living room hub. So, the PS3 is from Sony. That’s a good start. So’s my telly. But, it is a big machine and my kids don’t really play that many games on the PS3. It does have a built-in BluRay player. But, seriously, I can’t remember the last time I bought a movie in physical form. Xbox 360 is from Microsoft. Not a standard in home entertainment, that’s true, and the box is ugly IMHO. But some of the games are awesome (yes, I had to use an american hyperbole when talking about MS). And then there’s the Wii. From Nintendo, a gaming giant, but no longer in the hard-core gaming sense, and more in the mass-market kind of way. Nintendo have revolutionised gaming. My kids (5 and 9) do not understand how to use a traditional joypad or joystick, they are used to just waving their arms around and using instinctive movement to control the game. The console is small, fits neatly in the cupboard under my TV and has an HDMI connection. It’s just me, but if I can get access to movies/catchup video on a box that also doubles up as my kids’ favourite gaming console, then I am sold. ![]() Click here to view the article. |
