yea Rayman is really fun though I'm stuck with Wii sports. Wii tennis is like crack for me
I suggest picking up the console and preordering Wii Play so you can get the 2nd Wii remote with it. Its like a free game along with the remote.
Also pick up a classic controller if you intend on playing Super Mario World as it is necesary.
Good luck picking one up and when u do be sure to post your Wii number on that other thread so we can all link up.
