you need a wiimote to play any game. some games require a nunchuck attachment.

as far as i know the classic controller is not required for any wii game. the virtual console games use the classic controller

if you want a good game to play redliine buy Twilight princess, it was definately one of the better games i've played in a longgggg time and the way it utilizes the Wii's remote is the best i've seen in a wii game so far

Thanks dude. I am not much for adventure / storyline games and such but I will probably rent a few games before I buy more. I can see how the Wii would take full advantage of Twilight Princess with its remote functions. I don't have a lot of time to play it but like I said i'm going to crack it open on tuesday. I got it for my gf and I to play on rainy days. Fuck i'm getting old.

It's pretty awesome. It took me awhile to finally get it, since it was sold out everywhere. It's too bad the Wii version doesn't allow downloading of additional music, but it does have online play. People that like rock music and air-guitaring will this game.

I played my Wii for the first time on Tuesday. I played mario kart and loved it. I like how you can drift around the corners and get additional boost when you exit. I also like how they've got a lot of tracks from the original game. Brings me back to the olden days of playing nintendo with my 3 buddies for 13 hrs a day on days where it was too shitty outside to play street hockey. Battle mode ftw haha..

I found the wheel to be pretty tough but using the wiimote and nunchuck thing made it a lot easier. I imagine though I could be just as good with the wheel with more practice.. The wii is crazy fun

Also got smash bros. woop

haha I'm glad your enjoying your wii man!!! Yea the wheel you need some time to get used to. I've been using wheel since I bought the game, but now I've been lacking some cornering speed so I changed to what everyone says is easier, wii+nunchuck. I got A rank timing on the bowser 64 map Using that is much faster for me. I'm currently using bike too

Do the rankings mean anything? On one circuit I got 2 star rating and other I get B or C when I get gold.

yea they do,, to get star rankings,, you need to be fast on all your laps, meaning don't crash into walls or fall into pits. Also,, you get more bonuses if you get all star ranking in all your cups, like unlocking more karts and char and if you complete every cc including the mirror cc with 1 - 3 star.. you get a star logo on your name when you are playing online mode. So far I'm doing my finalize with the mirror 150cc mirror,, only got 4 more stages to go for complete star ranking for me

Nice. I am going to try and get that, too. I figured out how to do tricks in the air last night haha.

150cc is friggin' hard. It's gonna be tough getting a star rating for those ones.

Gametrailers have released their review of Wiifit

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/34333.html

the game was mostly reviewed as a game, due to somewhat of a score, but they did recommend the game for health purpose.. it does its job..

edit **lol i posted the wrong link, i copied and paste a site that i was going to post on off topic forum.. haha

I saw a wonderful thing today -- a small pile of Wii's at the new Costco by Willingdon and they weren't even bundled - system only

It's insane that it's been a year and a half since release and that's the first time I've ever seen them in any large quantity
