Wii advice

After saving for over a year Charlie's wii bundle should be arriving on Monday but he has a question.
Will he need a memory card?
and any advice about good games, extras, etc will be most welcome too.

I would say get another nunchuck and handset. It allows you to play certain of the games "against" each other rather than the computer.

I love the wii sports, especially the boxing very good for the bingo wings

OH loves the tiger woods golf and we got the mario winter olympics (I think that what its called) which has something for all the family.

I have never been a gaming fan but the wii is addictive, a bit like dogsey

Not to begin with and if you do decide to get one dont get the offical one as its expensive. I have had my wii since launch and still not filled.

Good games I would say are a must include.

The legend of Zelda.
Super Mario Galaxy (one of the best games on any format)
Mario and Sonic at the olympic games is good and brilliant on multi player.

On the download side, I would say get the donkey kong country series and Mario 64(better than galaxy)

His pack has an extra nunchuck included, and he gets wii play with a wiimote (whatever that is lol).

In total the games are

wii sports of course
wii play
Mario Party
Super Mario Galaxy and
Zelda Twilight Princess.

He's been a nintendo nut since he was born.

He's picked good games then . He wants Mario & Sonic and Metroid Prime too but I said he's got enough to be going on with.

He used to love the original Rayman on the pc.

I'm hoping some of the games may help with his operation recovery, especially get his arm movement and strength back.

Mario and Sonic it is a must then, it will get his arms going and then he will want to do it again to beat his best time. Good thing is it gives a message every 10-15mins advising the player to take a rest for a little while.

Thanks for that, I'll keep an eye on gamestracker, which is the best place I found for the cheapest games. It's on my watchlist.
