To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Super Mario Bros. game franchise Nintendo is releasing a special, Wii gaming system bundle for the 2010-2011 holiday season. The bundle includes beautiful limited edition red versions of the Wii gaming console and the Wii Remote Plus controller, Nintendo's new standard game controller for Wii that incorporates the strengths of the original Wii Remote and the Wii MotionPlus accessory all in one controller. In the spirit of the 25th anniversary being recognized, the bundle also includes a copy of the recent hit game New Super Mario Bros. Wii. The bundle contents are rounded out with a limited edition red Nunchuk controller and a copy of Wii Sports. A Little Box With Plenty of Power As with every console, much of the buzz about Wii revolves around its specs. The Wii boasts 512 MB of internal flash memory, two USB 2.0 ports, and a slot for SD memory expansion. The system's technological heart -- a processing chip developed with IBM and code-named "Broadway" and a graphics chipset from ATI code-named "Hollywood" -- deliver stunning performance. And instead of a tray, Wii uses a single, self-loading media bay that plays both 12-centimeter optical discs used for the new system, as well as Nintendo GameCube discs. An additional, and often overlooked, benefit of the Wii is that it uses a fraction of the power of other current gaming consoles on the market, saving energy and money both when it is on and off.  Celebrate Nintendo's anniversary with a special Holiday Wii bundle.

View larger. Simultaneous Multiplayer Comes to Super Mario Bros. Developers at Nintendo have dreamed of creating a simultaneous multiplayer Super Mario Bros. game for decades. The Wii console finally makes that dream come true for everyone with New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Supporting 2-4 players in side-scrolling co-op and competitive platforming action, and featuring a mix of fan favorites and new characters, new power-ups and various input options via the Wii Remote or Wii Remote Plus, it is destined to become an instant classic in one of the most beloved game franchises of all-time. Key Game Features- New Super Mario Bros. Wii offers a combination of cooperation and competition. Players can pick each other up to save them from danger or toss them into it.
- Supports 2-4 players in multiplayer mode.
- Mario, Luigi and two Toads are all playable characters, while many others from the Mushroom Kingdom make appearances throughout the game. Players can even ride different Yoshi characters and use their tongues to swallow enemies – or their fellow players.
- In some areas, players use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote / Wii Remote Plus controller. The first player to reach a seesaw might make it tilt to help his or her character reach a higher platform – and then tilt it incorrectly just to mess with other players.
- New items include the propeller suit, which will shoot players high into the sky with just a shake of the Wii Remote / Wii Remote Plus and Mario's new ability to transform into Penguin Mario.

A Sports Party in Every Box One of the most popular Wii party games of all time, Wii Sports offers five distinct sports experiences, each using the Wii Remote / Wii Remote Plus controller to provide a natural, intuitive and realistic feel. Players can use their own Mii caricatures in the game and play them against their friends' Miis for a more personalized experience. As players improve, their Miis' skill levels will increase, so that they can see exactly how much better they've become. Key Game Features- Tennis (1-4 players) - Players grab the Wii Remote like a racket and swing – the game registers forehands, backhands, volleys, lobs, slices, spin and power depending on how fast the user swings and at what angle. Don't worry about moving around the court to get to the ball – the game automatically moves players into position.
- Baseball (1-2 players) - Players grip the Wii Remote like a bat and swat fastballs out of the park, or fire a fastball over the plate with a flick of their wrist. Timing and bat speed will make all the difference between going yard and whiffing, so keep an eye on the ball and swing for the fences. In the two-player game, one player pitches and the other bats – all fielding and running is automatic, so that players can focus on the action.
- Golf (1-4 players) - Step up to the tee, hold the Wii Remote / Wii Remote Plus like a golf club and swing naturally to smack the ball onto the green. The harder players swing the club, the farther the ball will fly. Be careful, though – if players swing too hard, their ball will fly out of control, so they should be sure to take some practice swings before going for the pin. After reaching the green, line up putts carefully, practice the stroke and try to hole out.
- Bowling (1-4 players) - Players raise the Wii Remote / Wii Remote Plus in their hand just like a bowling ball, and then swing their arms to roll the ball. The speed of the swing and the angle at which they release the ball affects the ball's spin, so it will take some practice to master control over the ball and knock down the pins.
- Boxing (1-2 players) - Using the Nunchuk controller as one glove and the Wii Remote / Wii Remote Plus as the other, players dodge, weave and punch their opponents. Players hold their hands high to guard their faces or low to block their torsos. They punch high to hit their opponents' faces or low to get under their guard for a body blow. Swing both arms left or right to sidestep oncoming blows and move into position for a devastating knockout.
