Nintendo really wants to be on top of the console race so it never rests in giving gamers something to make gaming experience even better than before. Wii fanatics will sure be glad of the new accessories that Nintendo presented at the E3 Media and Business Summit on Tuesday. Aside from accessories, Nintendo also announced new games for the console.

The accessories are the Wii MotionPlus accessory and the WiiSpeak microphone. Wii MotionPlus is a white, square plug-in to the Wii Remote. It is just attached at the end of the Remote and works with the installed accelerometer and sensor bar for improved motion tracking. Due to the Wii MotionPlus, the Wii Remote becomes more sensitive to any movement made by the gamer for enhanced gaming experience. The second accessory is the WiiSpeak microphone that is used for Internet voice chat with their friends who are also on the Wii. The WiiSpeak microphone is sold separately for $30.

The most viable option if you want to take your gaming with you is to go for a portable game player. What will you choose a Sony PSP or a Nintendo DS Lite? Quite a choice huh. But if you are a Nintendo fanatic, there is no other choice but the DS Lite. Here’s a treat, Amazon.com is offering the new Nintendo DS Lite Onyx Black at $129.99 only. This new device is two-thirds smaller and lighter than the original DS. It features an adjustable dual-screen to change with the different lighting conditions.

The Super Mario Brothers is the oldest game I know of. If I remember it right this was the first game I learned to play on our family computer years ago. Well, Mario has his indubitable charm that is why lots of players prefer him. This may also be the reason why until now Mario is one of the big attractions among Nintendo wide array of games, especially for the Wii game console. And just yesterday, the company announced a new game title that will go in the Wii –Mario Super Sluggers.

Aside from being a gadget for entertainment, the Nintendo Wii Remote now has another use, and a very beneficial one I must say. The U.S. military has come up with the idea of using the Wii Remote for defusing bombs. The military is working on its own version of a bomb-sniffing robot which they call as the Packbot. Though this has been operated previously using a joypad, the military is looking for ways to make operation easier for the soldier manipulating it. Using the joypad does not allow the operator to concentrate fully in driving the robot, but the Wii Remote can change all that.

What’s the real problem with Nintendo Wii? There’s a list of things and I’ll start with Longevity … It does not have the longevity to live very long. The technical specs just aren’t there. For one it can only output 720X480 resolution. And since flat screen TVs produce roughly 1900X1200 resolution, you have to stretch that picture three times its size, making for a very blurry and jaggy image.

Remember the people buying the Wii are not real gamers. They are going to buy it like they would buy any nostalgic device. The Wii could have been a Beanie Baby for all we care. It just so happens that the gimmicky gadget of the year is in the video game realm. This really is not a next gen system. The buzz already is the Wii is boring to play. I am not talking about newbie buzz, I am talking about year old owners who are just simply bored out of their minds with the Wii.

Christmas is just around the bend. And we know a lot of people out there are looking for just the perfect gift. Gaming provider Nintendo offers a new product that would hit well for the coming holidays, especially for gaming devotees. The Nintendo handheld DS has been one of the well-loved products by the company and that is a fact. To satisfy gamers craving for the holidays Nintendo has declared the two new DS Lite bundles – the stylish Gold version and the sweet-looking Pink version.

Rumors, rumors, rumors! Yet there’s another one, this time the object is Nintendo. It says that there’s a third edition of the Nintendo DS coming up, but as to when there’s still no word. According to the rumor the new DS is already finished but Nintendo is still holding out on its release. It’s like Nintendo is playing a waiting game. The Nintendo DS Lite is still doing very well in terms of sales so it’s very likely that this third edition of the DS will be unleashed when the DS Lite’s sales have waned already.

Nintendo dishes up a new feature that will make enthusiasts have more interactive fun! Nintendo Wii users have had lots of fun with the Nintendo Mii Channel because through this, users are able to create characters that they can use in the games, so it’s like really putting yourself into the game. To make things even better Nintendo launched a new channel called “Check Mii Out” on November 11. This aims to promote more interaction among Wii users since they will be able to upload, view and vote the best Mii creations.

To make gaming even more fun for hard-core Nintendo gamers, the company finally unveils the Wii Zapper. By its name alone you can already envision action-packed activities. But what actually is this Zapper? Wii Zapper is handy housing for the Wii-mote and Nunchuck controller that when integrated altogether looks like a hand gun…a plastic one anyway. The Wii Zapper will be available in stores just in time for the holiday shopping. And aside from the Zapper Nintendo has another special treat! The Wii Zapper pack will come with a Zelda game. What could be more exciting for fans?

It seems like there will be no stopping the comparison among the game consoles. Almost every month facts and figures are being drawn out just to show which among the Nintendo Wii, Sony PS3 and Microsoft Xbox 360 is the most dominating one…using sales figures as the basis. But so far in the recent count, Nintendo’s Wii still holds its own on the top most spot in the Japanese market! For the sales statistics in August, Nintendo was able to sell 245,653 units; comparing to Sony’s 81,541 units obviously Nintendo still holds up the trump cards…and that despite Sony dropping the price of their PS3s. All these numbers are quoted by the Japanese game magazine Enterbrain.

Nintendo yesterday announced the arrival of their new addition to the DS Lite handheld game console. There have been some reports about this upcoming new DS Lite in the previous months but it was only yesterday that Nintendo officially confirmed it. The new DS Lite is a stylish and colorful one, just like the other goody game consoles released by Nintendo. This one’s color scheme is called crimson and onyx, but simply put, it’s a red-and-black color combination.

Too much gaming can lead to a sedentary lifestyle since the only body parts that usually get involved are the hands…but that is abut to change with the new Nintendo Wii goody. On Wednesday at the E3 video-game Convention, Nintendo introduced the new Wii Fit! A new game that will not only provide superb entertainment but also encourage fitness for the whole family. This Wii Fit comes with the Wii Balance Board that’s built with several features that will give not only fun gaming but fitness awareness as well! Four types of fitness training are targeted by the WIi Fit:

• Aerobic Exercise
• Yoga Poses
• Balance Games
• Muscle Conditioning

To gamers out there, especially those who are into the Nintendo DS will be real glad to know that their favorite gaming gadget now has a new addition on it. Together with the new Face Training game comes the tiny camera integrated into the device. The camera is a very vital feature in the Face Training game because as the name implies the user needs to see his or her face, a game that actually encourages face exercise - scrunch up the nose, twist mouth this way and that, raise eyebrows up to the hairline and a lot more. With the Face Training you not only enjoy the game but you also get to exercise the tissues of your face! Talk about double purpose!

The fact that Nintendo Co. was included in the top ten companies in Japan should be a victory in itself. Nintendo co is now in line with huge and well-known companies like Canon, Honda Motor and Toyota motor corp. Making things sweeter is the icing on the cake as Nintendo Co. also rose over Sony Corp. in terms of market value! It is really such an achievement since Sony with its Sony PlayStation has dominated the game industry for the past ten years. Sony’s market shares dropped by 1.1% or 6.50 trillion yen while Nintendo’s shares were strong with 1.5% increasing its market value about 6.54 trillion yen or $53 billion.
