My WII Play

Santa’s bringing a Wii?

Pardon my ignorance, but my 6 and 5 year old’s are asking Santa for a Wii this year. Today at Costco I bought a “sports pack” accessory for a Wii that contains a steering wheel, tennis racket, baseball bat and golf club. I do not yet have the Wii itself and there are 4 of us. I believe the “bundles” that are sold at Costco contain the Wii console and 2 controllers, but I don’t know what games come with it, etc. I’m lost! Any suggestions?

Nintendo Wii’s are fun. I personally don’t have one, but have played many times. You can easily pick one up at almost any retail store such as Meijer or Walmart. You can also get them from “gamer” Stores Such as Game Crazy and Game Stop.

You are on the right track by purchasing a sports bundle. When you do find a wii *if its new* it should come with the system, two controllers, and the sensor that will sit ontop of the TV. Occasionally you will find one that comes with a game, but not usually.

If you are buying it for the whole family to enjoy, I would recomend any of the Mario Party games, they are multi player, and very family friendly. Also, easy for ages about 8 and up.

If you plan on using it for the whole family, you will want to inquire about more controllers. I do a lot of purchasing on ebay. You will find more options, for a less expensive price. This is also a good option if you can’t find one locally.

I hope I’ve helped.
