That's all well and good, but how could it possibly be better than THE POWER GLOVE??? Hmmm??

I got the Wii about a week ago so I know exactly how you feel. I'm 31+ hours into Zelda and down one set of batteries but I think I'm nearing the end so I'll have to look for a new game soon.
And to all of you talking about moving around and swinging your arms. With the exception to blowing, boxing, and golf I usually just flick my wrist.

If you are a football fan, CosmicFool, I'd really pick up Madden if I were you.
Pickins are slim right now for games on the Wii, they'll be rolling out more in January and then March though. Right now I'd like to play Excite Truck, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, and to a faaaaar lesser extent Red Steel.
There's a game coming out this Tuesday called Far Cry: Vengeance that looks good.

pfft, no problem with that. the immediate post-purchase addiction will be strong but my girlfriend's plane from Argentina arrives in 7 days and 10 minutes from now so I'll be back out and about soon enough.

$250 for the base system, which comes with one remote and nunchaku and a copy of Wii Sports. Additional games are the usual $50 bones, an additional remote is $35, additional nunchaku is $20, which is a fucking rip if you ask me, but oh well.

Monkey Ball is my second favorite game on the system right now. At first using the remote seems very horrible, as many reviewers seem to harp on. But eventually I found that it allowed for better control, also the levels are fucking awesome. It also comes with 50 multiplayer mini-games which are pretty amusing really

be sure to play wii sports while you've got sweaty hands... and swing way too hard. Also, don't wear that tacky armband.
Then send us pictures of your broken TV screen
