Zack and Wiki sounds like a must have.
Crossbow training, if I can get it off ebay cheap, dont want that zapper crap.

I'm also probably going to get GWG, as I havnt played the xbox one much.

I'm currently tempted by Geometry Wars: Galaxies and Link's Crossbow Training.

But I really need to play SMG a lot more first, plus I've just bought Endless Ocean ......... I think us Wii owners are being spoiled right now. :D

Link's crossbow training has become my wife's favorite game. I'm really impressed by what you get for 20 bucks. Now give me some Wii-ware updates.

I've just experienced my first ever Wii crash ....... clicked on the SMG channel, Mario yells out 'Super Mario Galaxy', I clicked Start, and a few seconds later thw Wii crashed. Power was still on but nothing on the display (but briefly before it crashed I saw a flash of garbage).

Power cycled it and all was well.

I'm guessing a bit of dirt on the disc - anyone else experienced anything similar before, or is my Wii preparing to take a nose-dive?

Mine hangs occasionally after opening the disc channel.
Restart and its fine again.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. :)

Is yours an early Wii? I bought mine a year ago.

hmmm...Gamers are skeptical about it, but I think the general reaction is positive. Nintendo has been heavily promoting it.

In my case, my mum insisted on getting one. I assume Wii Sports players' would buy this one as their second(or third) Wii title.

No offence intended, but just in case that's not a typo, that's not correct. Player's = belonging to the player, players' = belonging to many players, players = plural (two or more) of player. HTH :)

aw, thanks for your kind and clear explanation :) Japanese basically has no plural form, so I have troubles in this area...

If it's any consolation, most native speakers mess it up on a regular basis. I know I do.
