Wii (pronounced like the word "we", IPA: ) is Nintendo's seventh-generation video game console, and is the company's fifth home console. Its official project code name was Revolution.
Wii is unique in that the console's controller, the Wii Remote (or "Wii-mote"), may be used as a handheld pointing device as well as detecting motion in three dimensions. The controller also contains a speaker and a rumbling device to provide sensory feedback. The console has a stand-by feature entitled WiiConnect24, enabling it to receive messages and updates over the Internet while consuming very little electrical power.
Nintendo unveiled the system under the Revolution code name in 2005 at its E3 press conference. Satoru Iwata, Nintendo's President, revealed a prototype of the system's game controller at the 2005 Tokyo Game Show during his keynote speech in September. At the E3 2006 show, Wii was widely considered a smash success, amongst both journalists and gamers. The console is scheduled for release in the fourth quarter of 2006 worldwide.
