The Wii's Universal Appeal Unless your name is Rip Van Winkle and you have just awakened from an extremely long nap, I'm sure you have heard of the Nintendo Wii gaming system. It made its debut on the U.S. market during the 2006 Christmas season, and now, more than two years after its release, it is so popular that it is still in short supply in many parts of the United States. In fact, it is not uncommon for local news outlets to still feature stories of retailers who get a supply of Wii gaming consoles delivered and the resulting lines and waiting lists that occur!

In part, the appeal of the Wii can be explained by the wide variety of games it offers: sports, arcade, action, role-playing -- there is literally something for everyone. Even people who have never before had any interest in video games find themselves attracted to the Wii and the entertainment value it provides. Truly, the allure of the Wii knows no bounds, and anyone can enjoy it, from the very young to the very old.

The Wii's Dark Side – The Cost of Games

Of course, nothing in this world is 100% positive, and even the Wii has a dark side. In this case, the high cost of games is an extremely limiting factor. Wii games generally carry a price tag of $40, $50, or even more. These high prices put a lot of Wii content out of reach for the average family.

Wouldn't it be nice if Wii games were more affordable, and you could turn your Wii into a media center for the entire family? Wouldn't you like to download Wii games right to your computer, and save hundreds of dollars each year? Well, now you can!

Any Internet search engine will turn up numerous web sites that promise you free access to games, movies, music, and more for your Wii console. But, how do you know which one to choose? When you consider the dangers of viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other destructive programs, how do you select a download site that is both safe and a good value for your money?

Membership Sites Provide Free Access to Wii Content

Since the Wii exploded on the market, a large number of web sites have popped up, each promising the "widest variety" or the "best selection" of downloads for the Wii. A smart consumer will do some careful research in order to make a wise decision on which one to choose. If you would like to download Wii games, here are some important factors to keep in mind:

Don't download from free P2P (peer-to-peer) sites.
Peer-to-peer (P2P) sites have gained quite a negative reputation, and it is well-deserved. Although they offer completely free access to a wide variety of content, peer-to-peer networks are made up of a huge collection of computers, some innocent, some questionable, and some outright malicious. just like yours and mine. Since there is no central server in charge of controlling the files, there is no assurance of quality or safety, and your downloads can be filled with viruses, worms, or other destructive programs. Is free content for your Wii worth the risk of damaging the data on your computer?
Does the site offer a money-back guarantee?
Once you've eliminated the P2P sites from consideration, you are left with Membership sites that charge some sort of fee to access and download Wii content. These fees can be based on usage, or membership length, such as monthly, quarterly, yearly, or lifetime. Most (but not all) of these sites offer some sort of trial period or satisfaction guarantee, so that your money can be refunded if they do not meet your expectations. Make sure that the site you choose stands behind its product and will promptly and easily return any fees you've paid if you are not 100% pleased with their service.
Do they offer a good selection?
If their catalog is presented online before you join, take some time to browse through it to determine if it will fit your requirements. Are your favorite games available? Do they offer the types of movies, TV shows, and music that you and your family enjoy?
Does their web site function properly?
This simple question actually eliminated several membership download sites from my consideration. I encountered images and pages that didn't load, broken links, and other problems. Think about it... if their online information and sign-up pages don't operate correctly, do you really want to give them your money and trust that their games and other content will be trouble-free?

So, Are You Ready to Go For It?

If you've done your homework and chosen a membership site that works well, offers games and content you will enjoy, and extends a money-back guarantee, then you are ready to begin to download Wii games free! You really have nothing to lose... and everything to gain!
