Nintendo Wii Newbie in need of help........
A few questions for the Wii educated. I just picked one up by trading about 50 DVDs and a few $$. Realistically though the only way I could have got one.
Putting that aside I am completely lost with what games to buy.
1. What 'cheap' games are out there? I picked up Brunswick bowling cheap.
2. Are there any games like Luxor or Atlantis or Zuma?
3. Any place to get Wii Sports cheap?
4. What are the 'must have' games such as Mario Kart. etc.
Thanks guys & gals!!!!

DVD Talk Hall of Fame
In terms of cheap games, Williams Pinball Hall of Fame and Zach & Wiki are fun and can be had pretty cheap. I'd also recommend Link's Crossbow Training w/ the zapper.
If you're looking for Wii Sports, I think you'd be best off going through ebay or a used game place like Gamestop. In fact, Gamestop might be a decent alternative for picking up quite a few of the older games. If you subscribe to their email, they tend to have a 25% off used Wii games about once a month, which brings their prices down to a decent level.
Must haves: Mario Kart, Mario Galaxy and Twilight Princess are three I'd recommend for any Wii owner. For anyone that hasn't already played through Resident Evil 4, I'd say the remake of that is also essential. RE: Umbrella Chronicles seemed to make mixed impressions on people, but I enjoyed it quite a bit for a zapper gun. Also, Boom Blox is fun and definitely worth the cash if you have other people playing with you.
