The special feature about the wii- console is its wireless controller (remote) - nicknamed the wiimote. With this controller you are able to interact on the screen via movement and pointing at the objects possible with its motion sensing capability- in three dimensions. The design also allows users to control the game using physical gestures aswell as pressing buttons (the traditional part of the wii!). There are no wires cluttering around your living room and the wii compact design allows you to squeeze it into any little corner ( its only a tiny bit larger than three stacked dvd cases). With the wii Remote also comes the nunchuck: it works together with the main controller in many games. Boxing now becomes a real experience!
The nunchuck like the remote provides a three axis motion- sensing and tilting through accelerometer. A cord connects to the wii remote. And a wrist strap should be worn at all times to prevent any damage! The family features include a message board where you can leave notes for other players; digital photos can be stored and even edited and if you have internet connection you could also surf the internet on the wii! With a password system it allows parents to ‘lock out’ unsuitable games or restrict the internet use.

-classic controller:You just add it on the wii remote with a cord coming from the bottom insted of the top; in a similar fashion as the nunchuck. It has two analog stick and two extra shoulder buttons plus other buttons(start, selct, a,x etc). The overall configuration is very similar to that of the major 7th generation console controllers. Also you can get very cool differently coloured skins (cases??) for it.
