Adults vs kids in Wii boxing and Wii bowling! It was sooo much fun - you have to get a Wii if you don't already have one.

I'll have to file it away, since I won't really be in the market for one until the new Smash Bros game is released. Thanks for checking on that.

But there is also a classic controller just for the Wii for 20 bucks that plugs into the Wii remote for old style games. tunequest… so the verdict is that a lot of the Wii specific games require the Wiimote.

The question I think you're asking... whether the GameCube controller will work with the new Wii games - I don't know. I guess I'll shoot an email off to my pal and see if he knows...

But I've not heard any confirmation of that. Any indication that it's true? As a non-hardcore gamer, I'm seriously interested in the Wii, but my gaming space is a bit cramped and I'm certain I'll bust a knuckle or someone's face by mimicking the swing of a bat. It would be nice to have the option to sit back and play if so desired.

The movement also makes it easier to learn how to control the games... instead of having to learn what all the buttons and joysticks do.

Nintendo has always been about simple brilliance, mario clouds f.e. The first Nintendo point and shoot device was 'duck hunt' remember. I guess that evolved to DDR (though not Nintendo). Reintroducing bodily movement into video games is brilliant.... It all originates from Lucas' light saber i think... collectively it's just branded in our heads. I really want to try this out myself.
