Nintendo's Wii video game system (pronounced "we") is designed to attract people, regardless of their age or video game experience, to sit down and play together--whether they're in the same room or on different sides of the globe. The system's name reflects this simple idea. It's easily pronounced in a variety of languages, and the distinctive spelling suggests two players side by side. The two Wii features Nintendo thinks will create new levels of gaming community are built-in Wi-Fi access, supported by a new online gaming service, and Wii's intuitive, wireless, motion-sensitive game controller.
The Wii is much smaller than what most people expect it to be. It is smooth, distinctive and looks good. The Wii-mote, as the remote is referred to, is easy to use once you are familiar with the keys. The Nun chuck control is also good when you connect it to the Wii-mote for playing the games included with the system. You can buy additional games when you wish to do so. The Sensor bar is very easy to set up and the entire setup doesn't take long to start gaming. The Wii comes with owner manuals and it is recommended that you go through the manuals so that you understand the system well enough to get the most out of it.
When you start playing the Wii games you will find that they require some physical participation from you. This is because of the motion-sensor technology built into the controller. This enables you to play, for example a game of tennis, using the Wii-mote as a tennis racket. The classic Wii controller is sold separately.
Playing the Wii games will enable you to get into shape, and stay that way. You may select the games you enjoy playing for regular exercise such as tennis, bowling, and boxing. The Wii includes a fitness age test for assessing your physical condition after a few rounds of some of the games included. The Wii assessment takes into consideration your speed, balance, reaction, timing as well as some other characteristics of your physical dexterity. If you play with the Wii regularly, your fitness will definitely improve. read more.......

What is Video game?
A video game is a game that involves the interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device. Video games may have a reward system—such as a score—that is based on accomplishment of tasks set within the game.
The "video" in "video game" traditionally refers to a raster display device. However, with the popular use of the term "video game", it now implies any type of display device. The electronic systems used to play video games are known as platforms; examples of these are personal computers and video game consoles. These platforms are broad in range, from large computers such as mainframes, to handheld devices such as cell phones and PDAs.
The user interface to manipulate video games is generally called a game controller, which varies across platforms. For instance, a dedicated console controller might consist of only a button and a joystick, or feature a dozen buttons and one or more joysticks. Early computer based games historically relied on the availability of a keyboard for gameplay, or more commonly, required the user to purchase a separate joystick with at least one button to play. Many modern computer games allow the player to use a keyboard and mouse simultaneously.
Beyond the common element of visual feedback, video games have utilized other systems to provide interaction and information to the player. Chief examples of these are sound reproduction devices (speakers) and an array of haptic peripherals. One variant even utilized heat and mild electric shocks when the player failed to succeed. read more……..

About FIFA World Cup
Scotland and England played the first football match that would eventually lead to the International FIFA World Cup. However, there was no way of knowing this at this first game played in 1872. During this time frame the sport was not popular worldwide as it is today.
Instead, Ireland and Great Britain were basically the only two countries that frequently played football. Its popularity saw a turning point in the early 1900s when it was played in the 1900 and 1904 Summer Olympics. Medals were not awarded as it was simply a demonstration game. However, its exposure in these early Olympic Games led football, also called soccer, being included in the 1908 Summer Olympics. At this point in time football did not receive national acclaim like it enjoys today. Instead, most spectators thought the sport was all for show and not really a competitive sport. Things began to change however. In the 1908 and 1912 Summer Olympics Great Britain was the winner.
The FIFA, founded in 1904 to arrange the international competition at the Olympics, began to try and create a larger tournament international in scale that was not related to the Olympics. The tournament was played in Switzerland in 1906. This competition was not like World Cup competitions today and it actually did not work out as planned. read more.....
