Wii wish you a merry Christmas

I was lucky enough to receive a Wii for Christmas. I had a Wii once, bought on release day but sold a few months later on ebay for a healthy profit. I sold it primarily for the money (I was skint at the time), but partly also because I was unimpressed both by the technology (or lack of) inside the Wii, and the poor game selection on offer.

As far as the tech goes, I didn't find the remote particularly accurate but was most disappointed by the lack of any kind of HD or digital audio connects. The thing looked and sounded terrible on my first generation Samsung set. And as for the the games ... well, you can hardly call a set of sports-based demos and a copy of Zelda a library.

This time round though, things are different. It's still the same TV, but the games selection is vastly improved. I received the same set of sports-based demos, but also Mario Kart Wii and FIFA 09. I intend to pick up Zak and Wiki along with Mario Galaxy and Boom Blox. Can anyone recommend me anything else? Comments below or email to the left welcome.
