Default Who Else Owns a Wii?

my wife suckered me into buying one for her today.. gotta say the bowling and baseball are fun... but i am more of a blood and carnage kind of gamer..

can anyone suggest some good baseball/golf games for the Wii? the ones that come with it are kind of lame.. but fun for a little bit. i guess i can put aside my zombie and Nazi killing games for a bit if there are some good games out there for it.

I've got a Wii. I think they have a call of duty game for it now if you're more into those type of games. Soulcalibur is a fantasy type of game that's ok too.

Ours gets mainly used for the WiiFit, but I remember my hubby mentioning that it seems like more games will be crossed-released to include the Wii.

We don't have one but play at our friends house. We by that I mena my DH enjoys the bowling and tennis. We havn't gotten the heart to play the boxing yet. I wish we had the money. I think all our guys, meaing son in laws and my brothers would enjoy it. But it costs to much. We had plans to do it until it took $15,000 to do our famiy room instead of $10,000.

LOVE LOVE LOVE my wii!

The husband plays Blazing Angels, and Cabellas hunter games. There are a ton of games for the thing. I bought the carnival games, and its full of all of those carnival games. Toss the softball into the basket, water in the clowns mouth, put put golf, dunk the dope by throwing a baseball, shoot out the star. Tons of fun. We invested in the balance board, and the husband has been boxing. I have been playing zelda, or harvest moon, and animal crossing. all baby games. Try looking in a game stop, or EB games type store, and you will find reasonable prices for used games.

LOVE my wii!

we like wii sports, carnival games and you can order on the wii any
nintendo, supernintendo, n64, etc. etc. They are downloaded to your
wii and cost about 6 dollars. So my youngest is playing all the games
my oldest started with....pretty cool. My younger brother loves this
the most as he has been a gamer his whole life.

Try renting some games. Try before you buy. Then check gamestop for a discounted game.

I love the wii fit and wii sport. Each gives a varity of games.

We have been looking for the rock band tour set. ugh. None near us.

Super Mario Kart is pretty fun too. The olympic games are fun to play with a group of people...especially kids.

I guess I must be an old fogey because I just cannot understand all the hoopla over this WII thingy. I like to play some word games and puzzels but, some of those games cause me too much anxiety and visual overload.

I bought the nintendo game thingy for my 8 yr old GD and she loves it.

My DD had the 70s gamer that had the little guys running around eating the other guys and stuff..(can't remember the name now). We all played on that for awhile. I remember, even that one, driving me a little nuts.

I don't think I want a WII.....I'll just go to Pogo and Slingo and play the milder games.

I have a Nintendo Wii and I absolutely love it!! I have had it for about 2 years now and wouldn't be without it ... it has really cheered me up on my not so good days!!!

I have the Wii Fit also that I like although I can't play it that often because of my leg as it makes my pain sooo much worse but it is fun to play when I am having a "good" day!!

My best games are the wii sports. I love playing the Bowling and Boxing game and challenging my mum and dad to them! I have High School Musical Sing Star that I like also - it is really good for teenagers so if you have any teenage girls that you know, that might be something to look into!!

My friend is really into Golf and she says that Super Swing Golf Season 2 is really good. I haven't played it before but she says that it is really fun and is like playing real golf but in a virtual world!!

I hope you find a game that you like best and have fun!!
