The '''Nintendo Wii''' (pronounced "wee") is a home video game console released by Nintendo on November 19, 2006. It is most famous for introducing and popularizing the concept of a motion-based controller, which doubled as a pointing device.

==Homebrew==
''Main article [[List of Wii homebrew software]]''
The Wii is easily one of the most thoroughly hacked systems to date with quite a robust homebrew community. While the PSP has a strong set of homebrew resources as well, the WiiBrew community has its own wiki, a still-supported graphics library, and continued support despite the Wii U and Switch existing.
Once a Wii has been modified to enable the Homebrew channel, installing custom software is as easy as copying your compiled game to the SD card along with some text.
See [[Nintendo Wii softmod]] for details on how to modify a Wii using software.
