So my Wii has arrived and I need some answers

[nordlead]

1) don't buy one until after you fill the Wii's Internal memory. Then any cheap 1-2GB card should be more than sufficient. No reason to buy Wii brand. If you are talking about GC memory (which is needed for GC saving) then buy any Nintendo brand. 3rd parties tend to randomly erase everything they have :-O

2) anything made by Nintendo is gold. Looks like you like fighters, so if you have a bunch of friends to play with I suggest brawl from your list.

3) only buy what you actually need. I bought 3 extra Remotes + Nunchucks as soon as I could and I regret it. I should have bought 3 extra remotes, and only 1 extra nunchuck. I never use the last two nunchucks. If you play brawl a classic controller or GC is recommended but not needed. Classic controller is the best option for VC games, as the GC has an odd button layout.

So if you are on a tight budget, just wait until you realize you actually need it. No need to buy everything ahead of time.

4) you can buy component cables online for like $5. Well worth the price if you have a HDTV.
