The Nintendo Wii vs the Sony Playstation 3 vs the Microsoft Xbox 360: Head to Head!
If you are in the market for a video gaming system for your home, you really only have a choice between the big three gaming consoles: the Microsoft Xbox 360, the Sony Playstation 3, and the Nintendo Wii. So far, it is anybody?s guess who will be the big winner, but so far, the Sony PS3 and the Nintendo Wii are out in the lead. In fact, the Nintendo Wii has a slight lead over the other two. There are three reasons for that: first, the Wii may be easier to setup; second, the Wii?s games may be easier to learn and use; and third, the Wii is half the price of the other two. But the other game consoles are selling well and they each have their strong points. As with any brand new gaming systems, everyone has an opinion on which is best? Some th...

Traineo.com Launches Nintendo Wii Fitness Video Contest - Spotlights the Wii Workout
(PRWeb) February 5, 2007 -- Traineo.com, the web's fastest growing fitness community, has launched a contest to award an 'Ultimate Wii Fitness Package' and other prizes to users who submit the best motivational health and fitness video(s) via the Nintendo Wii Group at traineo.com (http://wii.groups.traineo.com).
The contest allows members of the Wii Group at traineo to submit a motivational video entry via the free video sharing website YouTube.com (all entries must be received by midnight March 1, 2007). Traineo's judges will then pick ten videos that best encompass the themes of motivation, exercise, self-improvement and achievement for the Grand Final. Traineo Wii Group members will then have a chance to vote for their favorite video. The lucky winners of the contest will be announced on the Wii Group page at traineo.com shortly after the close of the competition at midnight on March 22, 2007.
The first prize entry, based on the largest number of votes in the Grand Final, will receive an 'Ultimate Wii Fitness Package', which includes a Nintendo Wii Console bundled with Wii Sports, traineo T-Shirt, traineo Digital Fitness Scale and Polar FS1 Heart Rate Monitor. Other prizes will be awarded to the runner-up and to videos ranked through to sixth place.
The inspiration behind the contest is Mickey DeLorenzo's 'Wii Sports Experiment' (http://wiinintendo.net/2007/01/15/wii-sports-experiment-results/), a six week project documenting the fitness benefits of playing the Nintendo Wii. DeLorenzo's experiment, presented through his blog WiiNintendo.net, has since been the topic of world-wide media interest surrounding the Wii as a new fitness tool.
DeLorenzo, a Philadelphia native, stated, "I think this is a great idea and I'm excited to see what I started motivate so many people at traineo. It's amazing to see a community building around this and I'm really excited to see what ideas people come up with for the videos."
"I think it's brilliant that so many people are using the Wii to become more active and get in shape," said Alasdair McLean-Foreman, CEO of traineo. "Mickey and a number of our users were already using traineo to track their workouts and fitness progress so we decided to launch this promotional contest to engage and motivate even more people in the traineo community to follow suit."
