As most of us, the games... i've been waiting for the revolution a long time, and wanted to feel the difference, experience the new control method... and Nintendo's games were already my favs anyway, so... i knew i could trust them...
But also the usual reliability of Nintendo's hardware, and the good quality/price (Wii Sports included, Wii Play with the second wiimote). It was the first time in my life i've bought a console on day one...
