The Nintendo Wii set the world on fire and sold like hotcakes, moving millions upon millions of units and changing the way people people played, and how they thought about video gaming. For the first time motion control was a reality and it worked really well. Just think back to the first time you tried Wii Boxing, or Wii Bowling. Many of the games designed for the system were incredible (Wii Sports, anyone?) and they brought families together for hours upon hours of family fun. Now Nintendo is launching the sequel, the Wii U, and it’s time for you to get on boar of the Wii U bus, because the improvements are incredible. First and foremost they’ve made a great leap in graphical quality. They know the games didn’t look great last time around because they weren’t HD and they’ve rectified that. The Wii U is full HD, which allows developers to really flex their muscles and create amazing games to blow your mind. In fact the new system will use an HDMI connection to ensure full 1080p glory!
