Are you an avid gamer?  If so, you probably are familiar with most of the popular video game systems that are available on the market today including Play Station, Play Station Portable, X-Box, and the new Nintendo Wii.  Video game systems have been elevated to a new level – one that could probably never have ever been thought of when the first Atari system hit the market in the early 1980’s.

Right now, the video game systems that are available these days allow you to play all sorts of games on them from hunting games to racing games, football, baseball, and so much more.  In fact, many video game systems can be operated by even small children, so their popularity is growing by leaps and bounds on a daily basis.  Of course, there are critics who say that video game systems are the reason that our children are leading a sedentary lifestyle, but the advent of the Wii video game system is beginning to change all of that because this video game system requires players to get up and move around to play the game.

Depending on what you are looking for in your gaming choices, you can choose one of the video game systems based on many factors.  You can look at how many different games are available, you can look at the capabilities of the system itself, or you can simply look at price and go from there.  There is no doubt that video game systems have been around for a very long time and there will always be new ones coming out that claim to be better than any other.

Critics generally agree that the Nintendo Wii is one of the best things that has happened in the video game industry.  The Wii has hand held controllers that require the player to not sit and play the game with a simple controller but to actually stand in front of the television and make the motions required to perform the game.   That means if you are playing a tennis game, you need to be up on your feet, moving and bending just as if you are on a tennis court so that you can play the game.  That means children and adults alike will get exercise while playing video games and that is no bad thing in any way, shape or form!

Video game systems are constantly changing.  Keeping up with the technology can be mind boggling, but take and look at what you are looking for first, and then choose the Wii.   It combines exercise with video games and makes the other video game systems look like the old Atari systems from the early 1980’s!
