Wii Owners/Players

I finally bought myself a Wii as an early birthday present.  It came with the Wii Sports and I plan to get the EA Active and the Wii Fit soon.  Are there any really fun games or good workout activities that you love that I should get?  My arm is still sore two days later from playing tennis, baseball and boxing with DH on Sunday when I bought it.  I plan to use it for exercise and fun. 

Re: Wii Owners/Players

  • I definitely recommend MarioKart! We love that game. I'm not sure if the steering wheel comes with the game, but if it doesn't, don't buy it separately. It's easier to play by connecting the boxing and regular remotes.
  • I just bought a Wii, so I'm glad you asked this. Yes

  • I got the American Idol for Wii and it can be fun with the right crowd...YL It has your karoke song too...

    It came with the microphone too

  • I <3 Guitar Hero World Tour! Also, Mario Party is good for . . . well, parties. I have Wii Fit but I haven't turned that thing on in months :(
  • I honestly wouldn't bother with the fit - it's not much of a workout.  I love the EA active game though, and you can play it with or without the board no problem.  and it's a pretty good workout.

    if you like boxing, check out the gold's cardio boxing.  if you like old-school mario games, mario galaxy is fun, even if it makes you a little dizzy sometimes.  MH loves tiger woods golf.

    blockbuster has a 30-day game package thing - you can get unlimited games in one month for $30-ish.  good to check out games before buying.  there is also an online place, similar to netflix, and it's much cheaper - I just wanted instant gratification.

  • We love MarioKart, Tiger Woods Golf, Wii Fit and Guitar Hero World Tour.  I also have a snowboarding one (Shaun White) which is good, but you need the wii fit board for it to be really fun.

  • http://www.gamefly.com is great for trying out games instead of buying them. Also don't forget to check out Game Stop (and other gaming stores) for pre-owned options.

  • My wii and wii fit are currently collecting dust.
  • Thanks for the ideas.  I bought the EA Active today (it's on sale at Target)-it's fun so far.  I will have to buy some fun games to balance the ones that make me work hard. 
  • DH and I just bought the Wii Sports Resort game...so much fun! It has like 12 different games on it. It comes with one Wii remote attachment, you will need to buy a second one, at Target they're $19.99. I highly recommend this game..it as archery, canoeing, wakeboarding, sword fighting, frisbee golf/regular golf, cycling, bowling, table tennis, airplane flying and a few more I can't remember..totally worth it!
