With the introduction of Wii, currently the leading game console on the market, Nintendo changed the idea of gaming overall, according to Evans and Blum. The game console has motion-sensitive controllers, meaning if you’re playing tennis and you want to take a swing you swing your controller in the air. The controller vibrates to simulate the racket-ball contact. “The Wii has created this 120-foot world where we stand away from the interface and interact,” Blum told ABCNews. “The reach of this is not even fully understood. You’re beginning to change the ways a narrative works.”
