Wow Wii!  

Smartphones, tablets, and other electronic gadgets are not eliminating major video game systems from the market. Instead these devices are creating a new wave of competition between the electronic gadgetries that is likely to heat up.  On Sunday, Nintendo launched Wii U. Netflix is already available on the new game system. 

Just like the Wii U's predecessor, the Wii, which has sold nearly 100 million units worldwide since 2006, the new console's intended audience "truly is 5 to 95," says Reggie Fils-Aime, the president of Nintendo of America, the Japanese company's U.S. arm.
