Games for any console get old after a while and we crave new uncharted games to tingle our senses. If you happen to have a Wii console you probably realize by now that you can download games, movies and music for your Wii. A quick search online turns up lots of sites offering such downloads for your Wii. Now the scary part is choosing the best one from the bunch that will be reliable, safe from viruses, and provide quality games, movies and music.
If you are like me you will want a good selection of downloads to choose from; old games, new games, new release movies and so on. So have a look at what they are offering and make sure they provide the entertainment you are looking for. Steer away from any site you don’t trust, or that feels shady. You do not want to give your hard earned money to a site that can not satisfy your needs or that will fill your hard drive with malware.
As far as payment goes, some sites charge a price per file download and others allow you access to an unlimited number of downloads for a flat rate fee. So it is up to you, if you only want that one game then you might pay for the one download. However if you want all the games you can get your hands on you will obviously go for the flat rate fee type of site.
Some sites need you to download special software that enables you to download from their site and/or other users. You can even play these games right on your computer without the Wii console. You will have to install an emulator that acts as the console. You can purchase USB controllers that plug right into your computer.
Not all of the sites will have detailed instructions on how you can download and burn the material so that it is usable in the Wii console. You should be sure that the site you choose will have a good support team that can guide you step by step on how to get the games you crave from the internet to your console.
There are a few fly-by-night sites that are here today and gone tomorrow, they are easy to set up and when they flop it is easy to just make another. So you should be careful and research such as you are at this moment and in no time you will have all the entertainment you could ever want.

I wanted to get an entire video of it so I beat my 146 record with this 154 return record, I’m sure I can do a whole lot better than that. (and if anyone’s wondering… my tennis rating thing is over 2200, i’d have to turn on my wii to get the exact number but it’s way off the chart right now

Gaming is about to embark on a fundamental change in the next 5 to 10 years. Revolutions are occurring in computer hardware impacting visual technology, game controllers and sensory feedback. Add to that revolutionary software will change the whole concept of what we consider games to entice participation from all demographics. All this will be impacted by incredibly higher processor speeds that will fundamentally change the way computer games are played.
Revolutions are coming in visual technology. 3D technology has hit the movie screens big time, generating an added realism to movies. It won’t be long before that technology is transferred to the video game industry. Imagine the 3d realism of gunshots coming at you or a football heading your way in a 3d football game. The hardware in primitive form is already available as specialized headsets from Display Systems. Even more amazing, a company called Ethereal is working on a 3d hologram projector that will make the holo-decks of Star Trek and X-men a reality . It won’t be long before games are written to take advantage of the new technology as movies are today.
Revolutions are coming in the sensory feedback we receive from games. Currently, almost all of the feedback we get from games are visual and audio. We get a little touch feedback from game controllers that shake in our hands to simulate hits. Well hold onto your hats. Soon to hit the market are vests that simulate being punched or shot to add realism. These are called force feedback devices and they are already available from a company called Tngames. Next to be developed will probably be full body force feedback suits. Imagine playing a zombie game and feeling the pressure of a simulated bite on your leg from the undead. There are also companies woking on smell machines that will generate a scent based on the computer program. There is already a patent out for a computer scent dispenser that can connect to the wii. It won’t be long before the smell of gunpowder is added to war games like Medal of Honor giving it a new sense of realism. In the not to distant future, games will be able to manipulate our senses merely by beaming signals directly into our brains.
Game controllers have not change much in years until recently. Most game consoles are controlled by single or multiple joysticks with tons of buttons. The Nintendo Company made the first revolution in controllers when it introduced the Wii and the first motion sensor controllers. Instead of controllers, games will be controlled by our brain waves. Microsoft is not far behind with it’s version of motion sensor controls. However, these controls are primitive to what’s coming down the pipe. Already, there have been successful experiments with humans moving a cursor across a computer screen with their thoughts. The first headset is already available for sale at a company called emotive. It won’t be long before the old joystick is a thing of the past.
All these revolutions would not make a difference if the new influx of data cannot be processed quickly enough to give the user real time execution. That’s where the biggest revolution is coming in processor speeds. For years chip makers have hit a wall in how small they can shrink the computer chip. There is a limit to the size of the wiring in the chips that carry electrons from transistor to transistor. To overcome that limitation scientist have been able to design chips that use light waves instead of electrons. This will enable them in five to 10 years to make chips with incredible processing speed. Some scientists think that in 20 years the super fast chips could make computers that can think like humans. Imagine games that learn enough about us to keep us perpetually engaged as we learn how to master the game.
Games will take on the roles of life. Like the movies the the Matrix, games will involve interacting with other people with avatars ( digital representations of us) in virtual worlds. It will be like facebook, merged with world or warcraft, but add in voice, touch and smell. Games like Spore are already at the forefront of this revolution. We will be able to produce ideal versions of ourselves and engage in virtual risky activities while our physical bodies remain safe.
The gaming industry is poised to take a revolutionary step forward that will impact every demographic on the planet. The new technology will increase the use of video game hardware and software in everyday life. I can already see the effects on how we learn. Understanding how to make video games will put a person in charge of their economic future in the years to come.

Part 1 of 2: Watch in HD. Classic Game Room reviews NASCAR KART RACING from EA Sports for the Nintendo Wii video game console. This cart driving game is ultra-fast and ultra-smooth and ultra-fun for fans of the cartoony, anything goes smash your enemies with dynamite sticks racing genre. Are you bored of all the existing MarioKart Wii racing courses and want to try something new? Whether you’re a Nascar stock car fan or not this game should appeal to you if you’re in the mood for a family friendly outing of competitive Kart racing. It works with the Wii Wheel and instead of magic mushrooms and Mario characters the game is filled with cartoon likenesses of Nascar drivers like Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson Cark Edwards and Matt Kenseth. Drive the DuPont car, Lowe’s race car or (my favorite) the M&M race car! There are also a number of unlockable fictional characters (that players unlock) who would easily win any Wii wet T-Shirt contest. Now… that’s a game idea…. Race on Nascar inspired tracks like Daytona and Talladega. Classic Game Room HD brings you the best in new school and old school retro video game reviews. We are a Wii reviewer reviewing new Wii games from 2009 as well as PS3, Xbox 360 and Atari 2600. Nascar Kart Racing is published by Electronic Arts, Inc. and developed by EA North Carolina.
