Yes indeedy

.

I just got the Wii last Thursday, though, so I haven't got any games for it yet - except for the "54" that came with the kit. The missus has tried the Wii Fit and my 2 young lads have tried most of the Sport and Play games. The only one I have tried yet is the boxing and my arms are hanging off me from the effort

. I'm more interested in exploring the technical abilities of the Wii ATM.

So my first 2 game purchases will be Mario Kart and Ben 10, the latter at the insistence of the 2 youngest members of the household

. I'll want to practice a bit on Kart before I'll agree to a challenge, though

. Don't want to make a fool of myself.

But I suppose the whole idea of a Wii is to make a fool of oneself

.

We use the wii a lot at paries, initially playing games but then also for music via you tube.

anybody remember Propaganda (Jewel/Duel) and Echo Beech (Martha) too good.

My missus and my son use the Wii fit board, find it great fun an I must admit I enjoy sitting with a glass of wine watching them

Wii sports is addictive, especially the tennis

Just purchased a LAN connector and lead and connecter to my router, so now the internet becons for competative gaming

Yep, you can purchase the points from your Wii or in a games shop.
