Really, really pleased.
When I seen this offer on the Wii Console and Wii Sports, it was unbelievable I couldn't miss the opportunity, the price was just amazing. Arrived I think it was round 5 days. Well worth the wait. The Wii Sports only had 5 games on it, got a little boring after awhile. But can't complain for the price I paid. I've not seen a wii console and wii sports for the price I paid since. I think I was at the right place at the right time. Just shows you "can" pick-up a bargain.

Thank you Cash Generator, and Amazon



A great fun console, but in need of an update
Firstly, let me just say that I think the Nintendo Wii is brilliant! I believe that there is a Wii game for everyone eg. everyone can have a bash at tennis on the Wii sports game. Lots of games here work really well (Resident Evil 4 is far superior on the Wii compared to it's other incarnations) but more often than not I have been dissapointed by how well the Wiimote (Wii controller) actually captures my movement. (I feel like the PS3's new 'Move' system may well surpass the functionality of the Wii, which can only be a good thing, to raise bar for future consoles).
The Wii has precious little in the way of "serious games". First person shooters are really not well represented on this console. Also the Wii does not produce High Definition images, wheras the other two consoles do.
I suppose the whole Wii angle is that it is bringing affordable gameplay to "casual gamers" ie. people who don't consider themselves as computer game players. In this respect the Wii is perfect and has been THE driving force in opening up this kind of gameplay (and I am completely behind this, I also love these so called casual games).
I really feel though that the Wii's days are numbered. We are due a Wii 2 with a greater graphics power and a better control mechanism (Nintendo approached this problem with the introduction of the 'Motion plus' add on, but I would be willing to bet that the PS3's 'Move' controllers will trump even the motion plus technology. Regardless, 'Move' is going to break Nintendo's monopoly on "casual games" and force them to raise their game.)
As ever though, Nintendo's trump card is their selection of brilliant exclusive games - The likes of Mario and Zelda are reason enough to own a Wii.
For the time being, the Wii is still a cheap and brilliantly fun console that everyone can enjoy, but I am waiting eagerly for what Nintendo will do next.

What fanhtastic exercise
Wow my Daughter and Grandkids just love this must have item a real weight looser Love the Tennis.

Too many flaws
When the wii came out people said it would be a reveloution but now it inot for the following reasons.1.The games are all completely overhyped and generally fun for an hour then they go away.2.The graphics are awful and look like they are from the ps2 despite being next gen. And finally it is now being overtaken by sony and ms whith move being hd more presice than wii motion plus as well a being blu ray and a entertainment hub.

Lots of fun for all the family
This console is great fun for everyone. Teenagers can play games on their own and also everyone in the family can get involved at different levels, particularly in the sporting games. We have found it is a good excuse to get a group of friends around and have a silly evening of laughing, with a good dose of competition thrown in.
Of course, the success of a console depends on the games you buy but start with the games that are thrown in with the various packages and then you can get a feel for what type of games you enjoy most.
I suspect it is not for the serious gamer but that is not me so that's OK!!
