The Nintendo Wii is the 7th generation console released by Nintendo. It has considerably lesser graphical juice compared to Xbox 360 and the Sony PS3 but aims to capture the fun of gaming through the games and creative use of both its motion sensor controller - the Wiimote and the nunchuk.
As of now, there are only 3 version available
- NTSC/UC (America)
- NTSC/JAP (Japanese)
- PAL (Australia)

Nintendo Wii games
The games are usually priced at RM 160 to RM 210.
You can purchase your games from any game shops or any online stores such as Play-asia.com
Be careful also on which games you buy. Check the version of your Wii and the version of the games you are going to buy as the Nintendo Wii is region-locked
For example, if you have a NTSC/JAP console, you are only limited to purchase NTSC/JAP games,
so the equation below is used,
NTSC/JAP Console = NTSC/JAP games
NTSC/UC Console = NTSC/UC games
PAL Console = PAL games
