Nintendo Wii Console, Best Prices

Microsoft have this week announced the launch of the long awaited Kinect controller. Kinect removes the need for a physical controller and uses it's camera sensors to detect your movement and speech.

Xbox Kinect, formerly "Project Natal", is a revolutionary new way to play, much like the Wii was at it's launch a few years ago.

Nintendo have now officially launched the new DSi XL handheld console in the UK.

Initially availble in two colours, Wine Red and Dark Brown, the DSi XL has a much larger screen with a greater viewing angle.

With all the features of the previous DS models, two games are also pre-installed - Dr Kawashima's: Little Bit of Brain Training and Dictionary 6 in 1.

Wii Fit Plus has become the first video game to be endorsed by the National Health Service.

Already used in some hospitals to aid recuperating patients, Wii Fit Plus will use the NHS's Change4Life logo in it's marketing. This programme encourages healthier eating and excercise, and is believed to be the first collaboration between a government body and a video game company.

Wii Fit Plus is released on 30th October 2009 priced initially at £74.99.
