Thinking Of Buying A Wii

Hello,

For awhile now ive been waiting to get a Wii but ive had some concerns. Now that i have found on at my local retail store(which is on hold for a couple days).How does the controls work? Which games are good ones to start off with? What is the nunnchuck control do and is it worth buying? I was thinking of buying MP3,Resident Evil, and Zelda to start off. Some of my friends regret getting the Wii some say its the best purchase they made. I played the Wii once had trouble getting used to the controls. I really love metroid games thats the reason i want to get a Wii but im concerned about the controls. Any advice would be nice im making my decision. Thank You

anyone's gonna tell you it's worth it. you're in the Wii forum. If the store is holding it for you, buy it. The games you mentioned are great picks to start with. The nunchuck is a requirement for a lot of games. Don't you have a gamestop nearby that has a Wii display you can play? If nowhere else, that would give you a bearing on how the system controls. You mentioned you have friend with Wiis (heh, never gets old). Can't you play over there?

It may take you a while to get use to the controls but keep playing. Alot of the bad reviews you read about Wii games having bad controls were more than likely written by someone who was over-confident in their ability to pick up the controls right off the bad and when they couldn't, they said that the control system was broken when in reality, they didn't play the game enough.

To sum up, if you've shown enough interest in the system to not only stake out a retailer, wait for the system to become available, request for it to be held and post online saying that you want one, I think you'll find it money well spent. Have fun!

Later,

Dave

Thank You for your input. I will be purchasing it tommorow but im still a little confused on the nunchucks is it required for MP3 or resident evil? Celph_Tiled

yes nunchuck is required, but the wii comes with one in the box, so you shouldnt worry about
