- The new Wii craze has allowed anyone to game,not just your stereotypical teenager. a more of a family console.Like other games systems the Wii is as far from an open platform as you can imagine.
- Games cost a lot of money to develop, and Nintendo has worked hard to make it difficult to get inside the Wii for fear that easy access would allow games to be copied and distributed.
- Although Nintendo thought you could only run legal and specific games,specialist engineers have been able to crack the Wii.They have allowed the control to now control vacuum cleaners and even Mac computers. this was totally against what the producers of the Wii have allowed.
- According to the technology site Slashdot there is now an MP3 player, a way to convert and play GameCube game files and even a port of GNU/Linux that runs on the Wii.
- Surely it makes sense to combine different consoles and converge them to save having a pile of consoles by the TV. but companies just want to keep bringing out new consoles, to keep people buying and interested.
