Sales of Wii consoles begin in Moscow
The Wii game console has already become a real sensation in America and Europe, and its official sales in Moscow start tomorrow. This was announced by the company “ND Video Games” , which exclusively represents the interests of Nintendo in Russia.
Thus, Russia lagged behind the United States and Europe by only a month, although in Western countries it is already quite difficult to get Wii right now - the goods were literally swept off the shelves of all stores, the ND Video Games spokesman said . For example, in the United States for the first week of sales were sold more than 600 thousand consoles. In the UK, 50 thousand devices were sold out in 12 hours. Stocks of Wii in France, Germany and other European countries are also long over.
What is the success of such a popularity of this game console with a strange name? The answer to this question is well known: the whole thing is in the controller, which captures the movements of the hand.
The joystick transmits the movement of the arm in space directly into the game. Thus, it is possible to wave a virtual club, a sword or a tennis racket on the screen, as if it is actually in your hand (naturally, the joystick is tied to the hand with a special strap). You can even fight with each other on swords. Apparently, this is the first device in the world of this kind.

The Wii joystick is equipped with an ultra-sensitive MEMS accelerometer (electro-mechanical design of microscopic size; micro-electro-mechanical systems), a speaker, a Bluetooth transmitter and a tactile feedback. If translated into Russian, it means that it captures movements in three dimensions, including rotation around its axis, and is able to vibrate and make sounds.
The second joystick is connected to the first nunchuck wire. Directly the game console has the size of a very small box.
On the Internet, you can examine in detail the device manipulator .
