When you see the XBox 360 and PlayStation 3 (yes, there are some) with a fair smattering of A-list games, it would be easy to dismiss the Wii out-of-hand. However, I've never yet seen a console so easy to pick up and play – which is an opinion a huge majority of people seem to agree with.

It doesn't matter how old you are, or even if you've never so much as glanced at a video game before – you'll be up and running in next to no time. Oh yeah, and Super Mario Galaxy and The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess are easily up there with the best titles on other systems (and the Wii release of Resident Evil 4 is the definitive version to own).
