The Wii 2 is here and we”re loving the positive press coming in about the next generation Nintendo system.

Actually called the Wii U, the next gen Nintendo is a a controller and screen all-in-one.  Its rather interesting that they went with this approach, and we wonder who is going to be following in their giant footsteps?

Now your partner doesn’t have to complain about you monopolizing the TV anymore, with the handy dandy 6.2 inch touchscreen embedded on the controller.

Alas we’re going to have to wait until 2012 to get our greedy little mitts on the Wii U, but more good things are on the way that will stave off our cravings!

Nintendo has finally and officially put all rumors to rest, announcing the new Wii 2 which will be on shelves next year.

The Japanese video game company made the announcement after speculation persisted that the company would be unable to produce the next gen video game console any time in the future due to Japan’s earthquake and heartaches.  But Nintendo wants to allay our fears, saying that the next generation Wii will be out sometime in 2012, with an official unveiling of the Wii 2 specs at LA’s E3 from June 7-9.

So rest easy now, the Wii 2 is soon to be on its way.

Yes please!  Take a look at these babies, they’re nothing but fun and perfectly revealed right before the holiday season.

LEGO Play & Build Gaming Remotes for the Nintendo Wii actually work and you can basically build the remote to your aesthetic liking.

A $40 purchase, these remotes are perfect for the Wii gamer that has everything.

For all you die hard Dr. Who fans out there we have a gem of a Wii discovery for you this fine Tuesday morning.

Say hello to your new Dr. Who Sonic Wiimote Screwdriver.  You’re teething with anticipation, aren’t you?

The Wii-bound Doctor Who: Return To Earth and Nintendo DS title known as Doctor Who: Evacuation Earth, are tipped to arrive in time for Christmas alongside relevant sonic screwdriver add-ons. This won’t appeal to everyone though, and some might even decide to pass it off as a marketing gimmick instead.

This time around you can trade in that tired white look for a black game system, combined with MotionPlus as well as a new game.  The package will retail for $200 even which will include the newly added game Wii Sports Resort.  When can you expect this added piece of gadgetry?  Look for it on Sunday, you know, just in time for Mother’s Day.

Revealed at this year’s CES, these controllers are more AK-47 than ever before.  With a built-in joystick and D-pad, you won’t have to stop the action when shooting with these babies, just be careful if you decide to take them on a plane.

We love this concept, as the Wii gaming scenery would make for a much more entertaining bike ride but the £199.99 is a little steep!

At $487K this solid 22 carat gold gaming console also features 3 diamond-studded buttons, along with another 75 diamonds enctrusting the Wii.  Now, don’t you just feel silly owning the other one?

Around  550,000 Wiis were sold in North America alone over the weekend, but the Nintendo DS outshone the system, selling double that amount.

What did you spend your gadget cash on this past weekend?

For just $240 you can get this amazing Wii deal, pretty much making it the best Wii package in the gadgetverse.
