Re: We won a wii!

Thankfully y'all are getting some releases soon-ish
http://www.altnation.com/forums/gami...-schedule.html

but for right now you'll want Rayman Raving Rabbids and WarioWare. Mebbe Zelda, depends how much you liked the Morrowind/Elder Scrolls/over-the-shoulder single-player RPG shenanigans.

Re: We won a wii!

Stay away from Super Monkey Ball. It's rubbish on the Wii.

Rayman Raving Rabbids and WarioWare Smooth Moves are both great games though.

Remember that you'll have all the classic games and gamecube games that you can play on it as well, but you need a classic controller or a gamecube controller for a lot of them.

Not at all. It's the only Wii game that I've played where I found the controls to be awkward - especially in the mini-games.

It's had really mixed reviews - some folks are saying it's the best Mario Party games to date, other have been saying it's the same thing as the previous 7 games and isn't that great compared to WarioWare, Monkeyball and Rayman Raving Rabbids.

You wouldn't want it on my recommendation, I don't play games ever so my opinion would be mince.

So Warioware smooth moves seems to be the one that most folk are recommending to kick off then? Bob's been standing holding the baby playing golf for the last hour, there goes my TV time

In fairness they do take some getting used to. I stood for about 15 minutes trying to work them for different mini games then got raging and gave up.
