I’m going to be spending some time Saturday hanging out with a friend I haven’t seen in a while and we will probably be spending some time on my Wii. I’m looking for a game or two to rent and maybe eventually buy. Co-op is preferable to competitive. I would prefer if there wasn’t a huge time investment involved in unlocking the multi-player modes. All I have for the Wii at the moment are Zelda TP, Wario Ware and DBZ BT2 (and Wii Sports of course.) My friend and I have already spent a lot of time on DBZ and he isn’t a fan of mini-game games (so I doubt we’ll be playing WW and Mario Party is out.) Note: Gamecube games that meet my specifications are also welcome. Note again: Unfortunately, I don’t have internet access on my Wii at the moment so virtual console software is out. Thanks for your help. ---

Wii Play is fun…ish. Basically, it’s a few multi-player minigames worth $10, and you get a Wii-Mote worth $40. Seriously though, Wii Sports will probably keep you guys busy for a loooong time. WW multi-player is okay for a few laughs,but it won’t keep it’s charm or it’s fun for much longer than an hour. ---

Rayman Raving Rabbids is the only one that has held my interest so far, but that’s mini-game based and requires some unlocking of multi-player modes. (I, too, am not a fan of Wario Ware.) Wii Play is fun for about five minutes. The shooting game is about the only one that’s okay. ---

There’s bowling. I’ve had a blast with my brother’s in law playing the bowling game. The Boxing game is fun too.
