What are the Nintendo Wii reviews like?

Just as the product features seem amazing, so are the reviews:

Fantastic product, as other reviewers have said before it blends in well with the TV, BluRay Player and even the Sky box! One notable improvement on the black wii is the standby – when you switch the console off via the Wii-mote, it goes to red on the console, whereas on the white wii, switching that one off via the remote only turns it to amber. […] As for the gameplay – fantastic. Innovative and so much fun. Particularly Mario Kart Wii, endless hours of family fun! From Amazon

I bought a PS3 for the children last Christmas but soon realised it was all about shooting people! I wanted something the family could use together and had been thinking of getting a Wii for some time. When the black one came out I bought it as it went with my TV system (sad I know). It arrived today and we have been on it most of the day. Looks very stylish, easy to use and loads of fun. From Play.com
