Wife is getting it free through work points.

Mario Kart and Resident Evil 4. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 21, 11:27
Free is good. Mario Kart, Super Mario Galaxy series, Super Mario Bros. the Active Life Outdoor Challenge games are cool - oblique Aug 21, 11:26
(Isn't the Wii-U supposed to be out by then?) -- nm - JaxSean Aug 21, 11:24 1
- we are always behind :) -- nm - Beaker Aug 21, 11:25
i love my wii... - gLu Aug 21, 11:20 14
- do you find you need 4 controllers? or just 2 good? (there are 4 of us, but are their games that 4 can play at the same time?) -- nm - Beaker Aug 21, 11:23 13
  - i only have 2 that it came with, and if my godkids come to play they bring their own... - gLu Aug 21, 11:29
  - All depends on if you buy games where all four of you will play. - Inigo Aug 21, 11:26 1
    - cool -- nm - Beaker Aug 21, 11:27
  - "We only have 2 controllers" is a good excuse for not having to play with your kids. - Mop (197 lbs) Aug 21, 11:25 9
    - it comes with a free hand wii controller, is that standard? and is the bowling.boxing game built in? -- nm - Beaker Aug 21, 11:26 7
      - Nothing built-in. Bowling is one of the Wii Sports games. - Mop (197 lbs) Aug 21, 11:28 5
        
        ahh, I bet we don't get Wii sports, but the new super mario instead. -- nm - Beaker Aug 21, 11:29 4
        
        Bub just got Super Mario as his Congrats for Loving Kindergarten present. - Spawn Aug 21, 11:42
        
        I would have thought you'd still get Wii sports. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 21, 11:38 1
        
        Also, seriously, check stuff out at the library. It's a great way to try before you buy. -- nm - Mop (197 lbs) Aug 21, 11:40
        
        You want at least two sets of the controllers (the controller and accompanying nunchuck). I personally wish I had the gamepad. -- nm - Mop (197 lbs) Aug 21, 11:30
      - Wii Sports. I haven't kept up on the console bundles but the Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort are great too -- nm - oblique Aug 21, 11:27
    - the new Mario comes with it. cool. -- nm - Beaker Aug 21, 11:25
You should get... - Stephen Aug 21, 11:18
Anything but a Wii. - Mop (197 lbs) Aug 21, 11:15
