Nintendo had a very effective marketing campaign for this console, and the ingenious Wii Remote was able to attract a lot of first-time gamers as well as casual gamers.

Nintendo Wii is one of the gaming consoles that a lot of gamers were sceptical about, upon its announcement in 2006, mostly because of its odd name.
