Who has one? If you do share your knowledge with me.

I'm sorry

The only reason I would get one is for the guitar hero...otherwise they are a waste IMO..

It was bought as a family gift for some good ole fashioned family time.

Yeah thats cool.... I have friends who do that..they invite others down to play the wii... I'd rather get out of the house and do something. Ya should have waited another several months..the next best will be coming out.

ahhh well it will be fun regardless.

Ok stupid question regarding Rock Band. Is it impossible to enjoy fully if you suck at playing instruments or can you learn on it easily?

I don't know how to play a guitar but Guitar Hero was easy to learn... but you need good reflexes and a large TV not to mention good surround sound to help you out.

What is needed with it? Does it come with any starter games?

I am going to get one soon also. My mom just bought one and loves it and she is 63. I think its fun also, I like the bowling! My wife is the main reason that I am getting one but I think that it is a GOOD gaming system in general for the family. You don't always need top notch graphics for games to be good, hell I play a lot of the old sega and nintendo games and love them.

Glad you are enjoying it Roody!

Yeah, Wii Sports which is pretty cool. I also have the Wii Fit which is cool also.

Too bad I'm too lazy to use it.

I bought one a while ago and love it... although i dont play it much as i used to... (not as fun by yourself) its designed for playing with ppl. Nintendo is trying to remind ppl that consoles were supposed to be fun. just mho.

I love Rhythm boxing on Wii Fit.

I got a wii for xmas from my mom, not sure why she got it cause I'll hardly have time to play it, but I went ahead and got the Guitar Hero regular game and guitar along with another remote and the special component cables cause I can't stand the simple "Yellow" video hookup. Otherwise I also got the crossbow thing and Links Crossbow target game or whatever its called.

Mario Kart is a great game along with Super Mario Galaxy. I dont use mine as much now that I have a PS3 but the kiddos love it.

I like watching Casey Lynch dance around with a guitar.
