Wii!

Broke down and bought one today at the ol' Best Buy.  Fun!  So do you Nintendo types have any game recommendations?

Let me see here. For fun with the little man:

1) Mario Party 8 (Also good for many people).
2) Wario Ware: Smooth Moves (Ridiculous shit, and fun, despite the fact that I personally won't play it because I tested it)

General fun:

1) Trauma Center. Be a surgeon. Be wacky. Get yelled at by interns.
2) Super Paper Mario. It's groovy.

You must buy or Greg and I will kill you:

1) Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. Not out yet. When it is, buy it. We wrote it.

For family fun, I also recommend Mario Party 8. Board game with flair. The Zelda game for the Wii, Twilight Princess, is also lotsa fun.

Rayman's Raving Rabbids. Played it while I was visiting Bill, and it's a hell of a good time.

Besides, what's not to love about going on a crazed shooting spree against evil bunnies, using a gun that shoots toilet plungers?

(Personally, I'd recommend renting Trauma Center before buying it, because it seemed to have limited replay value to me, but maybe I just missed the fun of the game.)

Thanks guys, they all sound fun. Love the concept of Rayman's Rabbits and Trauma Center. I think you're prolly spot on with rental advice too. It's been so long since I've been into console games I completely forgot about the rentals. :p

Super Paper Mario is the only thing I've spent much time with. Wii Sports is what we've played the most. I love the bowling. And learning to play golf from a seated or lying position (You cast like you're fishing).

There's lots of cool looking stuff coming out like Metroid and Mario Kart.

I keep wanting to get one and then realize there's not a lot out for it I want... Yet.
