The Vii is a video game console clone of the Nintendo Wii.[1] Originally released in China in 2007, according to Engadget China the console sells for 1,280 yuan.

The Vii's controller is similar in design to the Wii Remote but is smaller in size. It features motion detection but not the pointing capability of the Wii Remote. The Vii remotes will also come in different colors. The console itself is also available in the colors white, pink and light blue.[2]

A redesign of the console, colloquially called the Vii 2 by bloggers, features remodeled controllers and a console design reminiscent of the Nintendo Entertainment System and the PlayStation 3,[3] as well as support for both NTSC and PAL televisions.[4] The redesign also added a cartridge slot and came with a game cartridge entitled 7in1.

In 2008, the Vii was released in Japan under the name V-Sports.[5]

In addition to the games that were included with the first release of the Vii (with the exception of Free Craps, which was not included), the updated version of the console also includes a cartridge entitled 7in1 which features seven additional games. The seven games are:

Several other games have also been released in cartridge format.[6] Some examples of these are:
