Cheers for the comments, guys
Hmm.
I'd say "I may wait a while 'till more games come out", however, I think I'd probably end up waiting 'till then anyway due to the current stock drought [Game, Gameplay, Gamestation, HMV, Amazon, Argos, etc. etc.....no Wiis in stock online (loads of PS3s in stock though). Not seen any in any high street shops either].
The VC does sound great. I think if the Wii didn't have that, & the only thing to really play was Wii Sports, I wouldn't even consider it, not for one collection of minigames. But with the VC too...sounds like retro heaven...
I just hope Mario etc. come out soon, & are worth the wait.
I don't want to get one & then find it sits gathering dust like my Gamecube did [bought that before I bought my first Xbox...played Mario Sunshine a fair bit, 'till I played Halo etc., played Mario Kart a little, never got round to playing Wind Waker, didn't like Metroid Prime, & then eventually dumped it, after a long period of no use, & after getting bored of dusting it each week].
