This Wii bundle delivers a mix of entertainment at an attractive price. Key product attributes that make this a perfect, family-friendly gift include:

the Wii system with more than 20 million units sold worldwide.

Nintendo videogame systems, such as the Wii console, have evolved into much more than a fun family gaming device. With a plethora of new features and a lower price, the tremendous value of Nintendo systems has increased to a full-fledged entertainment experience:
-- Downloadable Games: Access to new and fan-favorite games through the
WiiWare(TM) and Virtual Console(TM) services:
-- Download new and creative games directly to your Wii console through
WiiWare (Wii console must be connected to the internet)
-- Download many of your favorite NES(TM), SNES(TM), N64(TM), Arcade
and Sega Genesis games, among others, to your Wii console and relive
those happy memories via the Virtual Console
-- Netflix: Netflix members who own a Wii console can enjoy thousands of
movies and TV episodes from Netflix via Wii. Fun memories with pictures:
A photo channel that allows users to display digital pictures stored on
an SD memory card as well as manipulate the photos in a variety of fun
and creative ways, such as creating mosaics, puzzles or slide shows.
Plus, families can also experience even more must-play games for the Wii system with Nintendo Selects, the hot-selling series of fun, family-friendly Wii games offered at a suggested retail price of $19.99 each.
Here's what some bloggers had to say at a recent roundtable, hosted by Nintendo, regarding fun with family and friends this holiday season:
-- Ruby Wright, Growing up Blackxican - "Bundle packs, such as the New
Super Mario Bros. Wii bundle, have created a whole new dynamic for
family night - this is the new board game for the next generation."
-- Migdalia Rivera, Latina on a Mission - "I have two sons, ages 17 and 10,
and they're both gamers and playing videogames is a way they're able to
connect, despite their 7 year difference. Playing videogames is also a
way for us to connect with other family members who are from different
generations."
-- Silvia Martinez, Mama Latina Tips - "I like videogames, such as Super
Mario Bros. Wii, that allow my entire family - my husband, my two sons
and I - to play together and have fun together."
Remember that the Wii system features parental controls that let adults manage some of the content their children can access. For more information about this and other features, visit http://www.nintendo.com/wii.
To utilize the Netflix feature a Netflix unlimited streaming membership is required $7.99/mo.
