Nintendo Wii

My wife and I bought a Wii. She loves the tennis game, I like baseball, and we both like the tank battle and racing cows

I want to get sport resort, so we can beat each other up with sticks.

Anyone else have Wii and if so what are your favorite games

If you get Wii Sports Resort, make sure you also buy a second interface enhancement module for the 2nd Wiimote, otherwise you'll have to take turns. WSR cannot be played without the add-on...they're 19.99, but one comes bundled with the game.

I don't get much Wii time in anymore, but the best games I've bought so far are WarioWare and PunchOut. The wife and I play MarioParty 8 and she like Elebits.

Me and the wife would love to get one too...just not in the budget right now. A friend of ours let us borrow hers for a little. Cool set up. I was disappointed at first that they didnt have any type of shoot um up games, but now they do.
Wii fit and some of the other games can kick your butt though.

Yeah we bought the sports resort package and an extra manette thing. My wife totally kicked my *** at stick fighting too.

I like the original Wii sports that came with the machine. We also like Wii Music and I bought a carnival game that's pretty cool.

I get a kick out of watching our two granddaughters playing Mario Kart as they sit on the floor turning their whole body and head as they turn the wheel, trying to stay on track.

My 6 year old son kicks my tail on Need 4 Speed Carbon. He always says, "Dad, race me! We'll both be lambos and we can spray it!"

I get a kick out of Need 4 Speed, Wii Sports and Guitar Hero. I get mad when I play Madden football.
