1. is the wii backwards compatable with gamecube games and if so how does it work, do you use the knunchuk thing or a gamecube remote? 2. Does the wii have online multiplayer capablities or can you only play multiplayer with people that are sitting next to you using the same console?

1) Yes. On the top of the wii are two flaps. Underneath one of them are four GC controller ports and there are two GC memory card slots under the other. Connect a Gamecube Controller and Memory card appropriately and then insert your GC disc correctly (the same way you'd insert a wii disc) and you should be away. Don't forget to select the disc channel from the main menu with the wii remote and click start as well.
2) The wii will have online games but so far, no online multiplayer games are availible yet. Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a confirmed online game and I've heard rumors that Metroid Prime 3 Corruption will be as well. Wii online will use the same friend code system that the DS and DS lite uses.

1. Yes, gamecube games need to be played ONLY with the Gamecube controller.
2. Yes, it does have online multiplayer capabilities BUT there are no games out right NOW that are capable of that but soon there WILL be.
The console will communicate and connect with other Wii systems through a self-generated wireless LAN, enabling local wireless multiplayer on different television sets.
Battalion Wars 2 will be the first to demonstrate this feature for non-split screen multiplayer between two or more televisions

1. you can buy these wii credits that allow you to download older games, and you need to buy the classic controller to play them, but gamecube controller will also work.
2. The wii's online world is still under work, but i read somewhere that the online multiplayer gaming will be available soon and other stuff like dvd playing.

dont purchase it on line. you'll waste money. what you do is: a million) awaken early 2) bypass to gamestop 5 minutes BEFOR they open 3) ask in the experience that they have a wii. Repeat steps a million-3 on a daily basis untill you go back for the era of one then 4) purchase the wii. also the cables, wii activities, wiimote and nunchuk are coated. the charger isn't coated, yet you receives it for 20 money at walmart. P.S. i have were given been given my wii doing that and that i used the internet on it to type this

you should be able to buy a hand held remote and you should be able to play game cube games on your system.
