I'd say get one, its a pretty fun way to spend your time and the controller is ace.

Yep, just now. first chance I had to get down to Argos! Only problem is, seeing it's meant to be for chirstmas, will only get a chance to play with it (sorry make sure it works OK!) whilst kids at school - Guess what - Half term next week

One quickie - Argos are giving you a £10 gift card if you spend over £100. Offer ends Tuesday aparently.

Re: Wii is Best selling console!

Was on the phone to the missus at work earlier and she suddenly broke off to say 'oo, oo, the post's here, is it for me, is it for me?'.

It was, too. In case you hadn't guessed she's bought a Wii. She's getting another controller and then we'll have a bash later*. It's like being 10 again.

For people still looking, she got on some mailing list that sent out updates when they came into stock somewhere. I can get the details if you like.

* After the 4 year old's in bed, hopefully.

Re: Wii is Best selling console!

Haven't played any games yet, too busy making Miis and sorting out the internet connection. Did you know the Network Services license agreement is under German law?

The remote thing is wonderfully intuitive. Does anyone else think it's nicking ideas from the Mac all over the shop? Not that that's a bad thing in any way.

Re: Wii is Best selling console!

Got a chance to unpack and have a quick go on it today Beat the wife at bowling Unfortunately I've now has to pack it away for Christmas

Now We've finally got it, ideas on a good second game please. ideally a platformer. Super paper Mario looks good.

Also, is Tiger woods 08 anygood on the Wii, save me buying it for the PS2.

Long way to Xmas dude. Spend all that money and not play it for 3 months ? You only live once, crack it open and get playing.

Super Paper Mario is great. My 10-year-old son really likes it. Not sure how old your kids are, but some of the puzzles do take a bit of working out because of the way you flip between 2D and 3D views. It's not a traditional platformer, but it is a great game.

Not played Tiger Woods 08, but all the reviews I've read and people I know at work who have it agree that it's an improvement over the 07 version but it's not quite there yet, and that EA need to work on the controller a bit more to make it as intuitive as Wii Sports Golf but with the extra depth that a Tiger Woods game has.

Super Mario Galaxy will be out in Europe on November 16th.
