The Unpretentious Wii Console

Nintendo Wii

When Nintendo was designing the Wii console they had a lot of options and a lot of things to consider.Since this was to be the next revolution in video gaming, every consideration was made to ensure the Wii had its place in history.Should the Wii console be large with buttons, flashing lights and shiny silver pieces?  Should it be the biggest game system you ever saw or should it be something not so outstanding?  After a while they started to take into consideration the purpose of the Wii so they could better plan the look of the Wii console.To bring back the video game crowd that had become alienated was the purpose the Wii was created.It had to have something for everyone.  It was not supposed to be intimidating by any standards.An image that would be accepted by common people had to replace the image of the power user that had been previously used.  The Wii console needed to be something that people would want to use and not be afraid of.It had to combine a powerful look with an unassuming presence.  What they settled on was a perfect mix of the look of tomorrow with the needs of today.

While the console resembles an upright DVD player, it's sleek look also feels revolutionary.The sleek lines and unassuming shape and look of the white Wii console are repeated in the accessories being developed.  There is a consistency about the Wii console that allows anyone to feel like they can not only set it up and use it but potentially master it as well.  It is a perfect design that gives off energy but at the same time allows people to shine their own light on it and make it their own.
