All those game crazy Nintendo freaks who were still trying to get their Wiis from relatives abroad or from shady Palika Bazaar shops can now rejoice. Nintendo will be releasing their highly successful Wii console in India on September 30 2008.
The console wasn’t expected to be such a success but it beat the hell out of PS3 and even Xbox 360 , everyone loves a Wii. Wii also has certain fitness games and features a great wireless multiplayer controller. The controllers have motion sensors and are really one of a kind as far as game controllers go. Some Trivia : The Nintendo Wii was supposed to be named the Nintendo Revolutions.
The Wii console will be launched by Samurai games in India who had originally introduces us to the Nintendo games (8 bit) in 1987. The MRP for the Wii is Rs 19,990 and the DS Lite is priced at Rs 7,990 inclusive of all taxes which is a little on the higher side. The Wii console in India will come bundled with the popular Wii sports.
The price is a little high when compared to USA, the Wii there costs around 12000 Indian Rupees and the Nintendo DS sells for 6000 Indian Rupees. The higher cost could be due to taxes, margin predictions or a simple desire to earn more profit.

If you are a techie, chances are more that you arent healthy. Staying in front of the computer, not moving for long period, not being able to go out and play and lack of physical activity all add up to a very unhealthy and fat you.
So why not use technology to try and reverse the effect, one of the gadgets that can help you in this is a pedometer. A pedometer is a device that counts the number of steps you have taken during the day. A good pedometer will go on standby when you are in a car or a bus. My pedometer even tells the approximate distance travelled alongwith the number of calories burnt.
Pros of this Pedometer :
- Good and accurate measurement of steps
- AG13 battery which is fairly easily available
- Easy to reach reset buttons
- Shows the distance travelled
- Shows the approximate number of calories burnt
- Good build quality
- Very competitively priced
Cons of the Pedometer :
- May need a little tweaking to get an accurate result
- You may easily drop and lose the pedometer
- May count jerks etc. on a jerky and potholed road
- Needs a big jerk to come out of standby
