Nintendo has ventured off the beaten path with its newest system, and the company knows it. While the Sony PlayStation 3 and the Microsoft Xbox 360 both emphasize their impressive graphical capabilities, Nintendo downplays the importance of graphics on its new console. While the Sony and Microsoft consoles keep the branding of their respective predecessors, the oddly named Wii is a semantic departure from Nintendo’s more literally named 2001 console, the GameCube. And while the PS3 and the Xbox 360 both use conventional gamepads bristling with buttons, control sticks, and directional pads, the Wii uses a device that looks more like a TV remote than a gamepad to control its games.

These strange choices could have spelled failure for Nintendo’s newest endeavor. Underplaying processing power, using a strange new controller setup, and giving the whole package an odd name could have been major mistakes for Nintendo. (Consider some of the company’s earlier attempts to go against the grain: the Power Glove and the Virtual Boy.) But the gamble paid off: since its November 2006 release, the Wii has become a runaway hit, so popular that it remains difficult to find it in stock. It’s strange, it’s different, and it’s not as powerful as its competitors, but the Nintendo Wii succeeds in its primary mission: it’s fun to play. c-net review

 

The AT&T Tilt is a high-end HTC Windows Mobile phone, which should tell you exactly what it looks like. Its form follows the same basic idea as the Sprint Mogul, T-Mobile Wing, or, most significantly, the AT&T 8525, among others. The main difference is that on the Tilt, the screen lifts slightly when the keyboard is extended, giving users a better viewing angle. Unfortunately, this also obscures the soft keys, which are located under the crease, but the Tilt uses a touch screen, so you can simply tap your selection on screen instead of on the keyboard. In practice, we found this feature to look enticing, but it made little difference in the usability of the phone. In some cases, like text messaging, the tilted screen seemed to give our fingers less room to maneuver the keys. In others, like navigating while driving, the Tilt held the screen at just the right angle. Still, you certainly don’t have to Tilt the screen, so there’s no harm done if you’re not a fan.

Otherwise, the Tilt is a solid phone. The screen is high-quality, and the keys are firm but comfortable. They are slightly rounded and nicely spaced, making typing a breeze. Switching between portrait and landscape, as the keys are slid forth, was not instantaneous, there was a noticeable lag, but the phone seemed better at handling the change than slower models like the Wing. In all, Windows Mobile may be a slow operating system for phones, with plenty of lag time, but the Tilt felt like one of the faster Windows Mobile phones we’ve seen, and even complicated third-party apps, like TeleNav, opened quickly.
