The big news today is from Nintendo and the Wii, which will arrive stateside November 19 for $250. Games will cost about $50 and you’ll be able to web-surf and view news channels and photos.
Wii owners can download and play games from Nintendo’s older NES, Super NES and Nintendo 64 systems and NEC’s TurboGrafx. Initially, about 30 games (usually $5 to $10) will be available, including The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario 64. Games are saved on SD memory cards, which can also be used to import digital pictures.
Built-in high-speed Net connectivity (including WiFi) lets Wii gather news and weather updates, plus messages from other Wii owners.
