Meet Wii

Wii Chic

The compact white style makes Wii a natural addition to any television setup. Lie Wii down flat or show Wii off with the console stand.

Wii Harmony

Wii packs 4 controller ports and 2 Nintendo GameCube™ Memory Card slots to make it fully backwards compatible with all Nintendo GameCube™ titles.

Wii Size

Wii is just 8.5” long, 6” wide and less than 2” thick. Try stacking 3 DVD cases together and you’ll see how cute Wii is.

Wii Talk

Up to 4 Wii Remotes can communicate with Wii. And Wii links to your TV with an AV Multi-output port featuring component, composite or S-video.

Wireless

Wii communicates wirelessly with the Internet via your router or a Wii LAN adapter. Wii also connects wirelessly with Nintendo DS.

Wii Brains

Wii is driven by 2 cutting-edge processors from the best in the business - a PowerPC CPU developed with IBM and a custom GPU from ATI.

Wii SD

The SD memory card slot means you can enjoy slideshows of your favorite photos on TV. Drag an MP3 onto the card, and you can have a soundtrack as well!

You've got Wii Email

Watch the disc slot emit a cool blue glow whenever you have email, Wii friend messages or an update from WiiConnect24.

Wii Sensor Bar

The slender Sensor Bar works silently with your Wii Remotes to turn those arm waving moves into game-winning moves.

More Wii Items

Wii AV

Wii also comes with an AV cable to get you hooked straight up to your TV.

Wii AC

Wii ships with an all-important AC Adapter so you can power up right out of the box.

Wii console stand

The stylish console stand holds Wii up and shows it off at a dramatic angle.
