Wii Special Tools

• The Wii game console is made by Nintendo. The Wii's design makes it possible for the console to pick up your movements during game play. The result is an interactive gaming experience where players actually participate in the action on the screen. Wii consoles come with some standard devices, like the Wii remote, Wii nunchuk and sensor bar to get players started. However, Wii also makes special gaming tools for advanced play.

Wii Zapper

• The Wii remote is an essential part of your game system. It signals the sensor bar with your movements during play. Another standard part of the Wii gaming system is the nunchuk, which plugs into the Wii Remote and acts as a joystick. The Wii Zapper is designed to hold your Wii remote and nunchuk while also boasting an easily-accessible trigger, so that you can control your player's moves while adding shooting capability. This is a handy accessory if you play games that require aiming and shooting. The Wii Zapper comes with the game "Link's Crossbow Training" as part of the package.

Wii Wheel

• The Wii Wheel is an adapter for racing and driving games. It is shaped like a small steering wheel, and your Wii Remote fits into the middle of it. It is designed to give you more control and accuracy while driving, and still gives you access to all the control buttons on the Wii remote. Wii has several games designed specifically for use with the Wii Wheel.

Wii Balance Board

• This accessory is for use with the "Wii Fit" Console. It works similarly to the Wii remote by sensing your movements when you step onto it. It senses your weight and balance and sends that information over to the sensor bar. The Wii Balance Board is for use with "Wii Fit" exercise programs so that your exercise program will become an interactive experience.

Wii Lan Adapter

• If you want to use the Internet capabilities of your Wii system, but do not have a wireless router, you can purchase a Wii Lan Adapter to connect. Getting online gives you access to Wii Channels that feature weather and news information. You also can play select games against other players over the Internet, choose from over 500 game downloads on the Wii Shop Channel, and sign up with Netflix through Wii to watch TV programs and movies through your Wii Console.
