Nintendo Wii - what do you need for it?

Question

I have just bought a nintendo Wii for my boyfriends birthday. I see loads of accessories for them everywhere. Do I need them? Do I need a memory card? and extra remote controller? Or even a normal controller?
Also what do you think is the best game for it and why?

Answer 1

Firstly can I say that your boyfriend is incredibly lucky to have a girlfriend who would buy him a wii for his b'day and I'm way jealous!!
Secondly I'd have to say that a memory card is a must (I believe the sandisk Flash cards are the cheapest) and the bigger the better of course.
As for extra remotes, that's all down to whether you or any of his friends and family would want a go. I'd certainly suggest you buy a game called 'wii play', which comes packaged with an extra official remote. I'd also sugest you get a numchuck controller as well.
And finally games - a lot of the mini game games are great on the Wii, though I'd probably sugest Zelda, Call Of Duty and Red Steel (though that's a bit of a marmite title in that some people love it when others hate it). Hope that helps.

Answer 2

The memory card is not really a "must" you can save games with the Wii....well atleast Zelda can. I have not bought any other games then that yet as Zelda is the only one I want untill SSB comes out.
