Cruise ships offer Wii to passengers
Anyone planning on taking a cruise with Norwegian Cruise Line in the near future will be able to do something more than gorge themselves on large buffets and alcohol, as the company is now offering Wii games to their guests. Right now the only ships offering the games are NCL America ships, with the rest of their fleet getting Nintendo's Wii console and some games next month. Games available for play are none other than Wii Sports, Wii Play, WarioWare: Smooth Moves, and Excite Truck.

There is a shortage of Wiis but somehow Norwegian manages to get enough to fill up their ships?

I wonder how much you have to pay Nintendo for a commercial/public application like this.

I'm sure Nintendo sees it as a win/win. That is the best kind of advertising they could possibly hope for... have passengers see what it can do for a week and then when they head home maybe they will pick one up. This is the kind of thing that would sway people that are on the fence or have never heard of/seen a Wii before.

Too bad the picture you used is a Royal Caribbean Ship.

The Wii is the ultimate party console. Along with the ultimate social interaction console/game/form of entertainment we have today.
