How to Register Controllers for the Wii

The Nintendo Wii is a revolutionary gaming system that uses wireless controllers to operate the console and play games. Rather than using joysticks to control the game, the Nintendo Wii controller uses hand and arm movements to detect commands, making the controller much more interactive. To use a Wii controller, it must first be registered or synced with the game console. This procedure wirelessly connects the controller to the console and is very easy to accomplish.
