How To Use the Nintendo Wii Controller

The Wii Remote fits comfortably in the hand is about as big as your regular television remote control. Make sure you use the wrist strap when playing - many people have been known to have the Wii Remot slip out of their hands while playing and it flies across the room! You can use it alone or with the Wii Nunchuck. It tracks your movements so that you can pretend your are swinging a tennis racket and actually see the racket move on screen as you move.

The Nunchuck is used in games like Wii Boxing where you use both hands at the same time for a full upper body workout and also in some of the Wii Fit games too. It uses Bluetooth wireless technology and you can use up to four controllers at a time with your Wii so you can play with friends.

We love Wii Fit - Nintendo Wii.

More About the Nintendo Wii Console

The Wii is Nintendo's fifth console and the direct successor to the Nintendo GameCube (the Wii can play all GameCube games).

While the working name Revolution was used up until April 27, 2006, it was named because Wii sounds like 'we' and Nintendo wanted a console that everyone can use and was also easy to say and remember.

You need the Wii Console to play Wii Fit and use the Wii Balance Board. You can buy them seperately or together with a Wii Fit Bundle. Nintendo's Wii video game system brings the whole family together to play.
