Wii "Stuff"

What are the things (accessories, games, etc) you'd recommend most for new Wii owners?  I think that's what we're going to end up getting ourselves, but I don't even know where to begin other than a 2nd controller!

Re: Wii "Stuff"

  • wii motion plus.  It's this little contraption you plug into the main controller.  Some of the new games use this (it adds extra sensitivity to the movements). 

    I think Punchout is fun, especially if you used to play it on original Nintendo.  Another good one is Mario Kart with an extra wheel. 

    Wii Fit is ok.  I like the hula hoop game the best, mostly because DH looks like a complete spaz doing it, lol!

  • You'll probably want a Wii nunchuck for each controller. 

    Hula hooping on the Fit is hilarious.  I think the Fit is worth it just to see people do that!

  • It really depends on what games you have.  Most games will come with the accessory if you have to have it to play the game.  I'd like to get a charging station for my remotes and rechargeable batteries.  I saw somewhere where they had a wii stand that held the console, games, remotes but I can't remember where now...maybe bed bath and beyond.  We have one for Derick's xbox and love it!

  • I'm digging the Guitar Hero-like games right now.  I hadn't touched the Wii in almost a year b/c of my exam but I've been addicted for about 2 weeks now.  I want Beatles Rock Band SOOO bad now!  I've only asked for 2 things for Christmas and that's one of them.

    We have Mario Kart and I'm terrible at it...I was supposed to add Stacy and Nick so we could play them, but I never figured it out and the idea died away.  I should do it now that I have the time again.

    Another fun game is the Wii Sports kit w/the extra controller...it's pretty simple, but a lot of fun.  That one and Guitar Hero get the most use.  We have Wii Fit and we used it a ton the first month, but it's collecting dust now.  I'll prob bust it out again this week, but it's not at the top of my list.

    Damn you Nest for screwing up my siggy!

  • For games I love mario cart, super mario bros, sports resort, and the regular wii sports that comes with it.  We have the wii fit and I used it a ton the first two months but then just kinda quit.  The balance games on it were really fun though.

  • I would get a nunchuck.  There are a few games you need it for.  I love Mario Kart.  I also have a pirate game I like.  I'm not at home so I can't get the exact name for you.  We have a summer game one that has lawn darts, beer pong, things like that.  The Wii fit is ehhh to me.  I love the topspin tennis.
