Nintendo Wii

To truly understand how Wii revolutionizes gaming, you have to try it for yourself. Quite simply, Wii is for everyone. The ease of use and interactivity of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk allows for a unique social gaming experience for the whole family. You don't just play Wii, you experience it.
Why do I need Wii?

Wii is not just a gaming console, it's a reason to get together with your friends and family and play today's hottest games. Wii offers legendary Nintendo franchises like Mario, Zelda and Metroid, as well as all new classics like Wii Sports and Wii Play. Create your own Mii character to star in Wii games. Play friends online over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection or use the Internet Channel to surf the net from your sofa. You can even download classic Nintendo games using the Wii Shop Channel. Take a look around and see why your TV is not complete without Wii.


Wii is all about family fun. So Wii has easy parental controls that allow you to choose the game or content that's right for your kids.
Wii Parents

With Wii, you can:

- Choose the Wii and Virtual Console games played by your child based on the ESRB rating.
- Access extra parental control options when you connect Wii to the Internet.
- Bypass parental controls with a PIN code, so you can access the games and content that you want to play.

Parent Tips
Check the Ratings

Finding the right games for your kids is easy if you follow the ESRB rating symbol and the content descriptions.
You know best

Every child is different, so use your judgment to decide which games are suitable for your family.
Use Wii Parental Controls

This is the best way to limit the type of content your child experiences.
Be Aware of Online-Enabled Games

Games that let users play with other people over the Internet sometimes allow chat or contain other user-generated content that is not part of the ESRB rating. Wii only allows open communication between users who have exchanged Friend Codes so communication is limited to users you want to interact with.
Play Video Games with your Kids

Watch what your kids play, and talk about games with them (and others) as often as possible. It’s a great bonding experience and it’s fun, too!
Don’t Stop at the Ratings

Game reviews and demos that allow you to sample games are broadly available online and in magazines. Nintendo.com also contains more detailed information on most Nintendo games.
