LOL So whats with the Wii save game function? Do I need to buy a SD card to save games or is that an option or is it mandatory to own one?

It's optional^^ only for when your Wii gets full I suppose. I haven't needed one yet^^

Rent Elebits! It's like a Katamari meets Ghostbusters. You have a gravity gun and throw shit all around the house, and you also rotate the beam to turn on faucets and open doors, and you can open refrigerators and ovens to look for the little alien dudes you're collecting. And as your gun gets stronger, you can pick up cars and launch then and stuff.

Edit: So far I've only used an SD card for 2 OPTIONAL things: showing slideshows on my Wii, and playing .mp3's during Excite Truck.  You don't need one.

Oh yeah, easily. I guess it depends on how many VC games you get, but you can get quite a bit^^; 

also, Metroid Prime 3 is pretty dang good too, I forgot if other people already recommended it.

you wont get carnival games?

congrats and have fun .

First, get Super Mario Galaxy. Is the best platformer out there, and the graphics are amazing.

Then, buy Metroid Prime 3, and experience the best controls for console FPS. You will hate double analogs after you play Metroid Prime 3.

Then get Twilight Princess, Super Paper Mario, Resident Evil 4, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros Brawl, Zack and Wiki, No More Heroes, etc.


My first recomendation is definitely Super Mario Galaxy.

Also, buy some Wii Points and download LostWind and Defend your Castle.

And you need to setup the Internet settings. Once you connect the Wii to the Internet, go to the Settings Menu, and do a System Update.

Once the system is updated, go to the Wii Shop Channel and download the Everybody Votes Channel, Weather, Mii Channel, Nintendo Channel, Internet Channel, etc.

I was waiting for you to post!!!!

You my friend, encourged me to get a Wii...

With this "oh Kingdom Hearts 3 might be on the Wii". Now that I have one I can rest assured and agree that Kingdom Hearts 3 on the Wii would be rather awesome!!!

My sister is playing Wii Sports right now, but I will post my friend code in the thread and in my sig :D

So does the Wii have some kind of on-board storage space or something?

Thats weird, I never knew they did, I thought you needed and it was recommended to buy a SD card.

I will add Metriod Prime 3 to my list. I'm planning to buy the first and second ones on the Gamecube.

I more than likely will, that, Wii Play and Mario Party 8....Girls like those games :P
