Oh, dear, I’ve done it. I’ve ordered Wii. I’ve taken Leigh’s advice and given my credit card details to Gameplay – a bumper order for Wii, Wii Play, Zelda and Rabbids.
At least when Leigh ordered, he had a count-down for Wii to arrive – I’ve no idea when they’ll fulfill the order!
I can’t go near my computer without googling Wii, so I know there’s going to be Linerider for Wii (???) and you can even get a Wii WordPress plugin that reformats your blog so that you can read it (and post to it?) from Wii.
Is it really wise to invest in new computer hardware and a massive drain on time so soon before the all-important local elections? Probably not…
Enough with the Wii puns already! It’s starting to get downright Wii-pun-gnant.
:p
Oh, that’s bad!
Hooray!
Might I suggest that for maximum familial (ie Paul) enjoyment you order an additional Wii Remote (or Wii-mote, much to Ks annoyance) and nunchuck?
What made you order Rabbids? Or has your googling covered off reviews and recommendations already? (www.metacritic.com/games, http://www.ign.com, wii.nintendo.co.uk, http://www.cvg.com are all useful and informative sites)
Ooops, silly me…that should be http://www.cvg.co.uk and of course by ordering Wii Play you are getting an additional Wii-mote…just an extra nunchuk needed then?
Gameplay wanted me to bundle a game with the console, and of the few to choose from, it seemed the most interesting.
Does the nunchuck do more than boxing?
The tanks game in WiiPlay requires both players to have a nunchuk…and to play multiplayer Rabbids both players will need a nunchuck.
Generally, most games coming out will use a remote & nunchuk for each player…although WarioWare (12th Jan) looks most interesting and allows 2 player fun with one player using the wii-mote and one using the attached nun-chuk!
