Gonna pick up a Wii, just wondering about storage space. I understand that people have been using SD cards for memory, but is there any internal hard drive at all, or am I gonna need a card from day 1? Also how big of an SD card should I get? Keep in mind I will only be using it for saving games, not for other media such as pics, mp3s and such.

There's an internal memory of 512 MB. I have over 6 games and I still don't require a SD card, but that may just be me. If you want one, you should get one of 2GB. Those come around at $35-$90. If you're looking for something cheaper you could always try 1 GB or 512 MB.

Thanks for the info. Looks like I'm gonna hold off picking up a SD card for now.

I recently bought a wii. Don't have a gamecube, but have some game cube games.
Do I need to buy a game cube controller to play GC games on Wii?

dalesd · 11-27-2007, 04:59 PM

Does the Wii still support MP3s like the OP says?

http://www.nintendic.com/news/1438

This says a software update removes MP3 capability.

Im_Wiitard · 11-27-2007, 08:15 PM

wow thx, i wil be refering to post alot now for all kind of info thx again great post.

monkey68 · 11-30-2007, 01:06 AM

Please can anyone tell me if an Australian Wii will work in the Republic of Ireland.Thanks

tnckowal · 11-30-2007, 08:06 PM

Hello - found this site whilst surfing the net. Brand new to Wii. In fact, I was so clueless that I didn't know it existed until this summer!!

Anyway - thank you to the OP for the great info. My questions are - I would like to know if there is a Dance dance revolution game available or the Wii fit?? Are they already out? Are they any good?

I can't wait to see my kids faces on Christmas morning

WiiLord · 12-01-2007, 10:46 AM

There is a Dance Dance Revolution, but not for WiiFit. The Dance Pad hooks up to the Gamecube controller socket and u have to use your hands using the Wiimote to do dancemoves with your hands. It looks pretty good to me. I own a PS2 Dance Dance game along with the Mario one. You can use a gamecube Dance pad if you already have on from the Mario Mix. Your kids would love Dance Dance Revelution for the Wii!

Porter03 · 12-03-2007, 03:48 PM

I am looking for a wii, I have been going to the stored and looking on line but still no luck. I am really hoping to get one of these for my 11 year old son but I don't want to buy a bundle just the system for 249.00. Any suggestions any one?

ninwiis · 12-04-2007, 05:52 PM

porter call your local best buy for the next update. usually on weekends its easy to get a hold of.

Schoobs · 12-06-2007, 11:59 AM

Well the Wii bug has bit my husband and myself. I knew I should of bought one in the summer. LOL Any tips on getting one. So far I am signed up for the Wii alerts and I was at a Walmart this morning and they said that they just received a shipment on Tuesday of 100 and now they are gone. He suggests calling everyday between 10-2 for a shipment. Then I went to another Walmart and they said to call at 2 everyday. Oh my gosh! I cannopt believe that I am racing around like a mad woman for one of these. My husband then drove 45 min away doing business on the way to check another city Best Buy, Walmart and Target. I am laughing because we are crazy for doing this. Thanks for listening. Any advice would be much appreciated.
