Fun, Family Gaming From Nintendo : Nintendo Wii

Jul 13, 2018

You’ve seen Wii change the face of home entertainment, Wii Fit transform the way we think about video games and Nintendo DS become a must-have not only for kids, but parents and even grandparents, too! So what’s the video game giant got for us next?


Check out the following yet-to-be-released games for Nintendo Wii, which were unveiled to members of the media on June 26. These exciting new video game experiences will be coming to store shelves soon, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled!


New Super Mario Bros. Wii

On store shelves for the holidays 2009, this is a game Nintendo developers have dreamed of creating for years – a simultaneous multiplayer Super Mario Bros. The Wii console makes that dream come true, letting you navigate the side scrolling worlds alone or invite up to three others to play with you at the same time on the same level at any point in the game for competitive and cooperative multiplayer fun. And it’s your choice whether you want to pick your friends up to save them from danger or toss them right into it! The game includes playable characters Mario, Luigi and two Toads, and many others from the Mushroom Kingdom appear throughout the game. You can even ride different Yoshi characters and use their tongues to swallow enemies – or your fellow players. In some areas of play you’ll use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote controller. A slight shake of the Remore, for example, will activate the new propeller suit item and shoot you high into the sky.
