I'm getting a Wii - what games should I get with it? Planning on playing quite a lot of multiplayer games, so going to get Wii Sports and Wii Play probably. What others are good? Is Zelda any good? Also, can you get on the internet via your Wii?
Btw, yes I am totally ignorant of modern consoles before you ask. This will be my first since the GameCube (which I liked but had to sell).
Yes, but the internet browser has a one-time fee of 500 Wii Points. I suggest Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Paper Mario, Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon, Metroid Prime 3, some others I can't think of.
Right, I've ordered it, and I've got a Wii + Wii Sports, Tiger Woods 09 (for free) and Wii Play + remote for £210 delivered. Not bad really for a console, three games and two controllers.
Heard that Mario Kart was good, might get that too, but I'll get it after I've finished messing about with these three games I've got.
Multi playah- Brawl and Kart (durr), Wii Sports (but that's free anyroad), Mario Strikers
Single playah- Galaxy and Zelda.
Internet app is now 250 points, so about... £3 in our money. It's pretty useful too. Runs Flash and all that kind of nonsense so you can play Youtube on it. For whatever reason.
Avoid Wii Play (or maybe just get for the controller) and Mario Party. The best of the series are on the Cube. Thought about getting some GC multiplayer games? Thems ultra cheap now.
Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'll definite bear them in mind when I go Wii shopping.
The Wiimote was about £27 off Amazon, and Wii Play was £28 so I figured a quid for Wii Play isn't bad! I plan on inventing some drinking games with it anyway.
This internet thing, does it only work if you have wireless broadband in your house? I'm not on the internet stuff in my house cos I've not moved in yet. And can you play online with it?
The Nintendo USB thingy doesn't need setting up or stuff, but yea any B/G band Wifi router or USB dongle will work with the Wii.
I think you can get a USB to Lan adapter if you really need it though. Online play is golden in Mario Kart, not so great in Brawl or Strikers unless you're playing with online friends.
Don't forget the Virtual Console that's built into the Wii, you can download SNES, NES, N64, Megadrive, Master System games at a cost... I have never experienced Super Metroid before, till I downloaded it

you have Endless Ocean too? The only other person I knew with it was Slink.. we used to go diving together until he sold his copy
Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles is a great shooter with intense graphics. 2 Player mode also.
Mario Stikers is also pretty good, even if you hate football (Like me). It is also one of the msot competetive games I've ever played online.
