Just a kids toy?

[ryanb]

Hi All-

So I have a Wii that's in the mail as I write this. I have never played one, but I had read some good reviews. When I saw it online I knew I had to act fast if I wanted it, so I got it. Over the past day, however, I've kind of had some buyers remorse.

I wanted to know from people have actually played it, is it just a kids a toy or do people well beyond their teenage years enjoy it? If so, what games do you enjoy the most?

Thanks!

4 to 40s (my mum hasnt played it yet then it will go up to 50s

The Wii is what games are all about haveing FUN wever its battleing beasts or batting balls

It's not a kid's toy, and even though I am not that old (20 years of age) I really enjoy it without even playing any games, just by going to the Weather channel, Mii channel, and sending messages you really have fun..of course it's also fun if you play good-quality games like The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (a must have for all Wii owners) Wario Ware:Smooth moves is really fun also but I don't have it yet, I do have Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 and I recommend it, it really hooks you, I also have Red Steel which is awesome and Elebits, which I guess some people would call it a kiddie game and it gets kinda dull at times...but for the future get Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3:Corruption, and Super Smash Bros. Brawl

And yeah that's why it's called the "Wii" meaning "We" as in everybody, so everybody will have the desire to play Wii as predicted by Nintendo

That's exactly why I was posting here! I figured you all would be likely to speak from experience.

yeah it's great man everyone loves it, and dont just get zelda coz everyone tells you to. it's a great game but not for everyone, if you like noncomplex adventure/rpgs get it

What do you like about Zelda?

[Axtlar]

everything in Zelda is really great, the graphics are amazing and they are from a GameCube game engine (Wind Waker)

[Wii17]

it is fun if you want a game that takes a while to finish and like rpgs, if you are a fps/racing lover its not for you. i like all games aslong as they r fun

Never buy a console for one game
But the wiis more fun with others (and a fare bit of space dont try to play in a shed)
