The most popular Christmas gift for the past several years is still a brilliant gift choice for the gamer in your circle. Nintendo continues to develop exciting new uses for its motion sensor-equipped controllers. If your gamer already has a Wii, here are some great accessories that they’ll surely enjoy (if they don’t have them already).
 
 Wii Fit Plus: The program that opened up video consoles to all ages is now even more expansive. New games like the obstacle course, where you jump from platform to platform, and Bird’s Eye Bulls-Eye, where you “flap your wings” and land on different targets, add excitement and whimsy to the atypical video game that actually encourages exercise. Great for the gamer or the health nut.
 
 Metroid Prime Trilogy: The first-person shooter first made popular on the Gamecube concluded its epic trilogy on the Wii, and now all three are available in this seductively priced package. Remodeled exclusively for the Wii, you control bounty hunter Samus Aran as she blasts her way through beautifully designed alien worlds. Solve puzzles and destroy aliens in this gorgeous, action-packed series that received rave reviews from critics.
 
 New Super Marios Bros: See what everyone’s talking about in this refreshing update of the game that started it all. For the first time, Mario and Luigi can play simultaneously, collecting coins and stomping Goombas as a team. While the graphics are updated and the gameplay offers some new twists, it’s still the classic side-scrolling Mario that paved the way for all new videogames.
 
 Wii Points: You may have seen these gift cards hanging alongside the iTunes gift cards, but never knew what they were. If you have a Wii and an internet collection, you can download classic Nintendo games on the Wii – like the original Super Mario, Kirby and Mario Kart – using Wii points! Perfect for gamers with a healthy sense of nostalgia.
