What should my Wii setup be? casual gamer

[StevieG]

Thanks, guys.

OK, so here is my shopping list:

Wii
Wii Play game title (with additional remote)
2 additional remotes
3 additional nunchuks
set of component cables (they do not come with the Wii)

Aside from additional titles, am I missing anything?

you won't get a whole lot of use from the extra two nunchucks so I'd wait on those.

4 remotes + 2 nunchucks is a must though. you can get a good set of component cables from monoprice.com (they're cheap and just as good as the licensed stuff)

regarding games, that's a whole other discussion depending on what you're looking for.

I'm surprised - do none of the Wii Sports game allow 4 players at once and simultaneously use the nunchuk?

Is there any such game currently?

Again, thanks, guys, this is all very helpful.

Rayman has some games that are simultaneous and require the chuk. AFAIR they are all dancing games where you drop your arms to the beat of the song.

The only game on sports that uses the nunchuk is boxing. Naturally that's 1 on 1. The other games are baseball, bowling, tennis and golf which are sports where you either play one handed (bowling, tennis, pitching in baseball) or both hands do the same thing (batting in baseball, golf).

Of the obvious games you would get Rayman I discussed above, Mario Party has no use for the nunchuk, nor does wariowares.

edit: Meant 1-on-1 for boxing, fixed.

2 on 2 boxing?!?!?

mario strikers charged uses 4 nunchucks (for 4 players), which is what i got my extras for.

you'll probably want to buy some wii points so you can download stuff from the virtual console... and you'll need a classic controller or two if you're interested in those games

I was about to ask what that was, then I found this thread:

Need nunchucks for Mario Strikers, which is the game getting the most play for me
