Default Wii is awesome

Got a Wii game for my birthday and really enjoy it. Then, DH bought me the Wii fit when it became available. It is totally awesome. Anyone else care to share their opinions on it?

I love Wi-Fi connectivity for playing but I haven tried playing with either Playstation, Xbox or Nintendo that are the gaming consoles more commonly used.

My experience playing via Wi-Fi comes from role playing games I have been accessing via my iPod touch, which comes built with Safari Web Browser, then you can play and surf the web wherever there is an Internet connection available.

Even though I have spent the whole week playing at Neopets.

I got my Wii as kind of a fluke. I happened to walk into a store right when they got them in and got the last one. I also have the Wii fit, is awesome as well. You have to try mario kart completly fun hard to stop playing though

Mario Kart! How much enjoyed that game in Nintendo 64, in fact after that game I change my preferences from Mario to Wario.

I¡m back after dinning out with a friend and I told him about this forum and shared this question, then he made me aware that one thing is Wi-Fi, and another very different Wii, that is the console that Nintendo launched after Game Cube.

WOW, live to learn

My wife and I bought our Wii back in April just before the kids got out of school. Sometimes it's just too hot where I live for the kids to play outside, so they end up playing Wii Sports. My 4 year old is just fun to watch when he bowls. Absolutely no form and he manages to get strikes and spares. He also knows golfing terms now because of Wii Sports.

I think he meant is wii not wi fi, Its different by the way, and wii is Nintendo. think you are a little bit off topic here.

I love Wii also the wii fit, you work out while having fun. Isn't that awesome.

His friend beat you to it Kathleen. See Gate Keeper's second post.

For now Wii is the better choice with great games, a cheap price and a decent controller.

I just had to come in and brag about my 6 year old. He came up to me and my wife and announced that he had 7 strikes in a row. He was just so happy. The Wii has been great for my family.

I have yet to try this system. It looks like it's a neat concept but I would be worried about the controller flying through the air and breaking something. lol. I would like to see how well the Wii Fit works too but don't think I will purchase one anytime soon.

The controllers have wrist straps and can be tightened around the wrist but not to tight. The greater concern is being too close to objects that can be knocked over as you swing your arms.
