Wii - help please with accessories

[coffeekaren]

Hello all - well i am completely at a loss with what to buy with the wii i have just bought so looking for help. So i have - red wii, supermario game, and wii sports - comes with one wii remote plus + numchuck. I have on my list still to get

1. wii fit plus and balance board
2. there are 4 of us so one more remote plus + numchuck. -
3. supermario galexy (mum already bought for ds)
4. wii sports resort (is this worth buying if you have the wii sports)
5. super mario karts (again is it worth buying if you have wii sports resort) all ds and dp would enjoy a racing game.

Do I need a charger? and are there any other accessories and games we will need (family wanting hints) got wii at a good price so am pleased. Thanks

IMO you don;t need to get sports resort, not to begin with anyway. We've had the Wii for just coming up a couple of years and only bought the Mario Kart last month, it is great fun and well worth getting.

What are the ages of the DCs using it?

there are four of us and we have two remotes and 2 nunchucks and two wii wheels for playin mario and my sims racings.

we've not got a charging dock as we just use normal recharagble batteries and have no problems with that.

wii sports resort we had that and traded in was'nt very good in our opion.

have the wii board and use that loads.

favourite game as the min is just dance as the kids love to dance to that as well.

Thanks this has been really useful. Dc are 5 and 8 - the 5 year old has a visual impairment and not really into things like this but will enjoy sitting next to his brother with the mario kart wheel. But he wants to do everything with his big brother and of course myself and dp will make use of it.

Now think all I need to get now is a extra remote and nunchuck and mario karts and wheels and wii fit for me- as the red wii package came with the bulk of it.

you can get a game Wii Play which includes a remote its about £29. (remote is worth about £24 irc so game is only £5)

The Wii play game is a few simple mini games which are good for dc's to get used to using the remote.

There is a new game Wii Party out for £35 which included remote and 80 mini games, dont know what its like though.
