But then came the Nintendo Wii and I was immediately impressed by the Steurerungssystem with the Wii-mote. Games that could be controlled with the movement of the hand, that was really revolutionary. I had to have. But it took some time until we got ourselves the end of 2010. And from then on it was the highlight in the family. Every day she was in operation and every Friday came the grandparents for Family Wii evening and it was played consistent enthusiasm Wii Party and Mario Party.
So I now have myself then for the white Wii U in this package chosen. Because here Wii Party and Wii-mote's the big deal. It was also important. Because one of our Wii Motes'd be missing, because we now want to sell the Wii.
But now for the Wii U. You realize quickly that Nintendo with the Wii successor followed the same concept as the 3DS, or at all in the DS family. A 3DS and two older DS we possess incidentally. So you can say we are Nintendojaner.
The Wii U Basic Pack Party enthällt everything you need to get started immediately. Aside from the initial setup and the big update. When the package, like us, the evening buys and connects you can still get going until the next day, unless you remain the one or two hours awake and makes something else on the side. But we have not given us, and let the update run overnight.
But apart from that, everything you need here. Power Supplies for console, for's Pad, an HDMI cable, a Wii-mote, the sensor bar which is known by the Wii and the Wii games Party and Nintendo Land. The latter is indeed a much better bonus from Nintendo, as then, Wii Play or Wii Sports and shows in quite a funny little games including the new pad is capable of. Also see both pad and console from very high, as you would expect from Nintendo.
You console yourself is indeed greater than the Wii, but it looks dashing and is not yet advised to large.
And this pad is awesome. At least as Inovativ as then the Wii-mote. I would say much more.
This thing is unbelievably good and light in the hand. And although it looks rather bulky and too big for a controller at first glance. What all is in the thing is really cool. A Bewegungssteuereung like the Wii Motes, a camera, a microphone, an approximately 6-inch display (compared to the lower screen of the 3DS XL is approximately 4 inches tall) and all the buttons you would expect from a Gamepade (4 shoulder buttons , a directional pad, left and right in each case an analog stick and right buttons A, B, X and Y.) In addition, even plus and minus for menus in the games. The famous Home button, with which you can pause a game at any time and from there comes the Internet, the eShop or the Miiverse. And you want to go back to the battlefield to get a further pressure on the Home button returns to the menu back and the game can continue playing either, or quit or read a tutorial for it (if any) In addition, there is also the battery status of the controller and all Logged-date Wii Motes to be seen. And the controller can also be configured over. Of course, all by touch movement, just like the DS family. Furthermore, it is still a head higher connection installed, a volume control for the built-in speakers. They are, however, functional rather than high qualitative. But that bothers me less. If I want to play only on the pad, which comes while the TV can be used for other purposes, I simply connect my headphones. And then it sounds again top.
Sure, the Wii U is not as powerful as the current X-Box or Playstation. But with the pad can be, in my opinion, much deeper immersion into the game than the competitors. In Batman Arkham City for example, there is the map abhebildet and the player has access to the Batcomputer. And that goes a lot smoother than ever out on the television and herzuklicken. When Wii Party U five players can now participate. Said Padspieler what else to face receives from the others. And that's extremely funny. In Nintendo Land for that matter.
What is also very good on the Wii U, all Wii games can be played without any problems on. Nintendo offers for on the Nintendo Store a free software that lets you transfer the scores, the Mii's and purchased software from the old Wii to Wii U. But only a minute. 512 MB SD card and necessary for both consoles to the Internet. Although takes a little the whole thing. But for that it works quite simple and it is then as if you had the old Wii integrated into the new. The only drawback: games from the online shop, which must have been on the SD card to be downloaded again. But that, of course, free. And they also run after only on the Wii U, and no longer on the old Wii.
Rather a joke, the built-in 8 GB of memory. Only the system with sämptlichen updates and the transmitted data demonstrate Wii already 2/3 of it. If you still want to download all the demos from the eShop, this is impossible, because before the memory is full. But I got myself a 16 Gb Memory Stick for under 10. In order to get a while. And although I except most demos quite a few smaller games that Wii U Street (which right class with the pad) have and the Art Academy downloaded.
In addition, it can be downloaded free of charge Youtube and Amazon Intant video.
Although the latter has a really user-friendly interface, but the Videoqualli is extremely unstable with us. But that may be due to Wi-Fi. In addition to the Wii U, we are still running an I-pad and a notebook. The mainly used my wife. And so must all share the same bandwidth. But that's not so bad because we still have a Blue-ray player with networking with us. And there we can look in HD Amazon.
What can be said about the video of the Wii U. PS4 or X-Box One owner like tired smile. But for hardcore Wii gamers a whole new world opens up. Batman Arkham City or Origins are a feast for the eyes. But Nintendo's Pikmin 3 shows what is razor-sharp HD. Especially the water looks totally real. Wii U also party looks much better than its predecessor. But graphics are not everything. Enjoy heck yes. And it does. Especially the pad offers opportunities in the form has no other console. The Wii U is just a family console. And the above depend anyway rather to players between 15 - and 25 years. But here have mom, dad and the kids enjoy themselves. In our case, even grandma and grandpa.
Even a few words to Miiverse. For me, this social network is a mixed blessing. On the one hand it's nice to talk to other players and to post screenshots of the current game but I find that before in literally Spanish. I have nothing against globalization, but Nintendo grabs half of Europe into a large room. And who as only German may be able to do anything with the most comments. I can not just school English and am overwhelmed with the whole Spanish, French, Italian and what not. But I think everyone has to find out for themselves. And ugly, my opinion is that there are only games related "rooms" are. No general, where one time only so what can write.
Conclusion:
In my eyes, almost everything right here Nintendo. The best of the Wii (motion control) and 3DS (two display) in a chic, quiet game console for the cozy TV packed with a very easy-to-use game pad, with which one moment during the game quickly on the internet which can read.
For me and my family definitely the right game console.
