The Nintendo Wii Turns One!
Happy birthday time for the little console that started out as a giant "What the heck?!?" and turned into a massive "OMG! So good!" The
Nintendo Wii is the
cheapest of the next-gen consoles and is so popular that, even a year after it arrived, stores still can't keep them on shelves. Not only is it getting gamers
off the couch and into the game with the
motion-sensitive Wiimote controllers, it's also letting you
surf the net and
download games. The
Wii is even getting families playing together. Yep, thanks to the Wii your
grandpa can own you at Super Mario Brothers. Isn't it great?
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings for Nintendo DS
A year after the
Final Fantasy XII story wrapped up, it's back on the
DS with
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings! It lets you
control armies, activate gambits,
power-up with over
50 summons and battle monsters as
Vaan and
Penelo.
