I also strongly recommend "soft modding" your system. You can play any Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Ninetendo 64 game. Nothing like a game of good old fashioned original Zelda for entertainment.

Well I'm officially addicted to the bowling game on Wii Sports Resort, spent most of the night last night playing that - outstanding fun, that game. Going to have my kids over this weekend so there will be a ton of Wii bowling going on at my house this weekend, plus actual real-life bowling as well on Saturday.Good times.
If anyone has the other bowling games for the Wii, I'd love to hear if they are worth getting or not. My GF is on board with getting the Wii Bowling ball accessory as well, so I figure I should build up a decent collection of bowling games to go with it.
The archery game on sports resort is fun too. Check that one out

LOL, I forgot to mention too that we have had a couple of close calls with the remote already, so if you have little ones, REQUIRE them to wear the wrist strap. For some reason 5 year olds think the best way to bowl in Wii Bowling is to swing the remote hard enough to embed it into the ceiling. At one point last night the remote went sailing high into the air and headed right for AZBowla's Girl's head. Yikes! Thankfully, it missed...
I'm hoping to come home from work today without seeing a Wii Remote lodged into the front of my flatscreen TV. Wish me luck.
I only have a few games for my Wii; Mario Kart, Mario World and Tiger Woods. Mario Kart by far is the most fun when you are playing against other people.

TWICE, that's right, TWICE my granddaughter didn't use the strap and put the remote through her parents flat screen. I blame the parents for being stupid enough to sit there both times and watch her do it.

Gotta say I never had any luck with the Wii sports bowling game. I just never got it, I guess! I started smacking the crap out of Wii baseball, though, once I figured out the less you move the controller the better off you are.
Not helping the situation since 1983.

TONIGHT WE BOWL! DV8 DAMN GOOD BOWLING
We have been playing the resort bowling game nonstop since we have gotten the Wii the other day. And yes I am very glad that my son did not actually hit me with the remote as it came flying at my head the other night. For some reason things always come flying towards my head. LOL I have no idea as to why, but has always been like that since I was a little girl. Oh well. And I keep beating AZBowla in the bowling game too. Hehehehehehee and when I have been bowling against him for real the past couple times, I have beaten him that way too. Hehehehehehee...![]()
