And, judging by the suite of games we were able to sample at the Wii sneak peek we were able to attend, the new gameplay thanks to the motion sensing technology is almost irresistible - you'll certainly be wanting to have a go when it launches!

The Wii will also be the most affordable games console this Christmas, and with full compatibility with Gamecube games, and a growing library of paid downloadable games for previous generation consoles, it's hard to see Nintendo not selling zillions of Wii's, and opening up gaming to a whole new audience that never really got into games before, as well as appealing to the huge existing audience of games at all levels. Stan, I could just be dreaming, but I’ll bet you’ll love the Wii – and I really think it will appeal to people who’ve never been into console games as they currently stand. But as to its ultimate success, I guess Wii'll just have to wait and see!
