Wii sport is the one with baseball, tennis, golf, bowling and boxing. Wii play is purchased seperatly and comes with an additional wiimote, it has 9 little games on it just to get you used to using the wiimote.

Hope that helps

As above. If you're after another controller, you can get the Wii Play budled with it. There are GameStation vouchers available, which means it's £31.99. So Wii Play is only £1.99. Worth it for that.

Would never buy it for £10+

My favourites on there: Shooting Range, Mii, Pool.

Wii Sports is excellent. The tennis, bowling and boxing being the best IMO.

If you want to buy a second controller, which is most likely the case if you want to play with friends at home, then definitely get 'Wii Play'. It's great for that little extra money. Oh, ... and don't forget to put ZELDA into the shopping basket as well, it's awesome to play this game with these controllers!!

So far I have the following games for Wii:
Wii Sports -> Good
Wii Play -> Good
Zelda -> Great
Super Monkey Ball -> Good

Wario Ware will be out on the 12th and I will definitely buy it.

call of duty 3 is very good.

I play tennis most of the time upto skill level 667 now so nearly at the magical 1000 pro level, had to play some 1200 skill level opponents last night which was pretty tricky!

My Wii has stayed in a bag since xmas. Not even played Zelda yet. I tried Red Steel. Got stuck quite early on with nowhere to go, all rooms blocked. Then after about 15 minutes stuck there it crashed, to which i've not returned.

Hoping to get some more time on it soon. Put it's mainly a party piece.

B2z

If you play as your Mii it keeps increasing your skill level and likewise those of your opponents, if you play as a guest Mii then it doesnt keep track of your skill level.
