get yerself Wii Play, it is £35 for the game but you get a remote with it which would cost you £30 on its own

I know they can be chipped for about £40 which then means you can get games for about a fiver apiece

I had a wee today, in fact I had a few 'cos I was down the pool having a post work pint and the bloody typhoon came in meaning I had to stay there and drink more or brave the elements. Well a bit of a shower is fine but frankly, fook that..... :shock:

Luckily our rass turned up with an industrial strength umbrella or I'd still be there. :grin:

Definately get WiiPlay, shop around, i got mine for £29.99!

Get guitar hero III too, its quality, but hard!!

Mario Kart is also amazing!!!

Just ask the gadgie behind the counter for Wii Play, he will know what you are talking about. I think it has 8 or 9 games on it like pool, air hockey and other daft things, worth it though just so you get the extra remote

I can help here. The Wii is wireless enabled thus making it possible to connect to the internet. What you need is a wireless router somewhere in your house. If you have one of those then your Wii is connected to the internet.

Attach of the wires at the back of your PC to the wireless router. Plug in your router and bobs your uncle.
