Are very good for family fun and having the mates round for a few beers or before you go out, but not alot of fun on ones own.

Oh and if you do get one, try and get extra controllers and nunchuks off people as pressies as they can run quite exspensive to get 4.

Only really play Wii Sports, Mario Kart and Mario Olympics.

Actually i suppose online on your tod is alright but it doesn't compete with a 360 or PS3 but then again its not supposed to.

Oh and the motion sensor can actually be really crap on some games and you just want to smash it.

But overall alot of fun with mates.

Not for me but my niece (she's 13) and all me mates' offspring love 'em.

Good fun, good games, good price.

But I prefer a mouse/keyboard and/or gamepad meself.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your replies,

If I got Super Mario gallery and wanted to play multiplayer know that I would need another Wii remote controller but do I also need another Nunchuk controller as well? Anyone know?


Thanks,

Wiz
