I do and it's pretty much the same as the other Mario Karts (in a good way).

If you like pinball, Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection is a great pinball sim and available for cheap.

Other than that, I mostly play Guitar Hero III, Wii Fit, and Wii Sports. I don't have Mario Kart yet, but based on everything I've read, it's great too.

Super smash bros is a fun game. Its cool to see link kicking the shit out of Samus and other old school NES stars. Mario kart is great. The controls are awesome. You have to use the included steering wheel. The online is alot of fun. You can play 2 player online so you and your girl can play others online.

i was considering wario ware smooth moves. i've never played any of the previous smash brothers and i've never gotten too into the fighting genre.

random question: how do i connect a game cube controller? i was told the game cube controller is the best option for smash brothers.

i was actually interested in tiger woods too. i read though that the putting makes the game unplayable. do you swing with the wii remote and everything?

i have an xbox 360 and a ps3 so i don't really care for any games that are also available on the other consoles. i just really want a good wii game that makes full use of the wii remote. i'm planning on wario smooth moves. i played mario party and i didn't really enjoy it all too much. just got boring.

There is a slot on the Wii itself where you can plug the game cube controller into it.It can take up to four if i am not mistaken.

If you have the Wii standing up then flip the top open to access the ports. If it is on it's side the ports will be on the left hand side.

Mario Kart is a lot of fun on the Wii. It was good on the older console, but even better on Wii. It's an excellent party game.

We also have Guitar Hero III and enjoy it. It was a little cheaper than for the PS3, but doesn't have downloadable songs. Supposedly that will change for GHWT.

I haven't even played my TW 2007 on my ps3 since I got 08 for the wii. I've never experienced any problems putting or swinging my controller, I don't use the golf club add on either. My swings are pretty accurate too.
