    My Wii should be on its way very soon!

    Just need to know what games are worth purchasing/playing now?

    Ive already put an order in for Wii Play from Virgin Megastore at £27 minus 10% discount brings it to £24.30 which seems VERY reasonable - people are buying this on ebay for over £40 an item!

    Wii Big Brain Academy might be another game im considering - any others guys?

    Wii Brain Academy isn't really worth the money in my opinion, even at the £20 price tag. It consists of just 15 'mini-games', which just keep repeating themselves in very slightly different forms. I'm not exaggurating when I'm saying that you'll have played everything the game has to offer within five minutes of starting. It's a laugh for a while to race against friends and family I suppose, but it's short-lived.

    However I have to agree that Zelda Twilight Princess is an incredible game, and I think it can be found for around £20 in Argos which is an absolute steal. It's only a one-player game but it's very very good. Super Mario Galaxy, out in a couple of weeks, looks good too. For a good puzzle game, I'd recommend Mercury Meltdown Revolution. You have to navigate a 'blob' of mercury through different stages of increasing difficulty by gently tilting the Wiimote. It can get a little frustrating but it's good to show how well the Wii technology works. Resident Evil 4 is an excellent game, too, particularly considering its sub-£30 price tag.

    Why are people paying so much for Wii Play?

    Its only £27 at Virginmegastores complete with the controller and you can also get another 10% off that price making it £24.30

    Why are people paying almost double for this item?

    <surprised>

    It's because Wii Play is as rare as the console itself and it's hard to find places with stock.

    You find me a place that has stock in currently and i'll order it from them instead.
