I also got one for my birthday last month and love it. I love the bowling and boxing on WII Sports. I am Sims fan and lvoe the castaway game. It looks like a great way to lose weight.

Re: Do you have A Wii? Can you suggest games?

I really love the Sonic Olympics - its a play off of the regular wiisports but with some mini games, and a ton of other sports like gymnastics, swimming, shooting etc.

Also, Rayman's Ravin Rabbids (i preferred 2) is GREAT for group play. Its all mini games (you can play against someone else) and there are music ones, racing etc. Its not a linear story, but as you play you can open up other games and costumes for the characters. Yea, I pretty much love it.

have fun with the new wiiiiiiiii

I actually played that at GameStop last night! It was so fun! Did you get the steering wheel to use with it or do you just use the Wii controller?

They are all good but I love the Fit.

Re: Do you have A Wii? Can you suggest games?

I haven't gotten Wii fit yet or Mario Cart, but my favorites so far are:

Super Mario Galaxy
Mario Party 8
Manhunt 2
Tiger Woods
Trauma Center
Rayman Raving Rabbits
Guitar Hero


Remember, you can also download old school games like Punch Out, Super Mario Brothers, etc. I downloaded a lot of games for it. Some of them you need to buy the classic controller to play, which is something like $20. Even if you don't need it to play certain games, it makes it a lot easier.

If you have wireless internet, your wii will pick up the internet connection and you can download them from the wii store. You have to purchase wii points, but most of the old school NES games are like 500 wii points (about $5). You can configure your wii from the main menu to pick up internet connection wirelessly. I have tried to do a hardwire connection, but I couldn't get it to work.
