I'm thinking about getting the Wii Mario Bros. Bundle. This is the Wii that sits sideways and doesn't come with a stand. I want to buy a stand. Does it have the rubber feet that sits into a stand like the older Wii's?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
All the new Wii's are the sideways ones, and yes you can stand it up too, not sure if it comes with a stand or not, it should.
You could just buy a stand from EB games/Gamestop. I have a Nintendo Wii the model 1 with the Gamecube ports/Memory card slots. I never used the Wii stand. Sometimes Gamestop has stands for $1.99 so they should not be hard to get.
I just lay the console flat. A New Super Mario Wii bundle shows. Most people didn't bother with the stand, so Nintendo stopped including it.
Can you get new wiis that play gamecube games or do you have to buy second hand?awakeningland
No new Wii's are backwards compatible, you have to get a used one for that. Given the disc drive issues some Wii's can have, I would recommend buying a new one under warranty and buying a really cheap Gamecube online:

Take that fantastic deal for instance, there are a million more like it..

OK, can't wait! I have a gamecube somewhere, was just hoping to have a system which could do it all but that's okay. Will be putting my 360 and PS3 in storage and going full Nintendo for the forseeable future. I might even sell one or both of them.[QUOTE="WreckEm711"][QUOTE="awakeningland"]Can you get new wiis that play gamecube games or do you have to buy second hand?awakeningland
