The Snowtendo Vii is a home video game console. It is one of the most popular game consoles in Antarctica and is created by Snowtendo.
Description[edit]
The Snowtendo Vii was designed to succeed Snowtendo's highly popular game console line, the GameSphere. It was also designed to compete against the up coming PengStation 3. Snowtendo completely redesigned the console from the ground up. For starters, it used upgraded hardware, like a better CPU and RAM. The most revolutionary design change was the brand new Viimote. The Viimote functioned as the game controller of the Vii. Like the PengStation 3's controller, it was wireless. Unlike it, however, it does not use a directional pad or a control stick. Instead, the Viimote relied on several gadgets, including gyroscopes and accelerometers, to be controlled. To play a game on the Vii, the player would have to physically move their hand to select an option on the screen. This would promote more interactivity with the player and the game.
The Vii was released on November 19 2006. The launch was simultaneous around several locations, including the USA, Ninja Archipelago and UnitedTerra. It was met with wide success, especially with the many games released for the system. Today, the Vii is one of the most popular gaming consoles and is used by many.
Trivia[edit]
- A Vii can come in three colors - black; white; and orange. (In comparison, the Wii is in black, white and red (Super Mario Bros special edition).)
- Amigopen is one of the few penguins to own a orange Vii.
- Homebrew can be run on the Vii using the Gasoline Channel.
- An exact copy, Nii was created in Zhou, the only exception is that it's much more expensive than the Vii and has only 1 sell.
- Snow owns a Vii, and it is the color orange. This particular one was exclusive to the Snow's return celebration, as a prize from the raffle.
- Snow also owns an exclusive game... Yeah... Let's move on...
