Do not buy if you have gamecube games
On Christmas day my son received a game that wouldn't play on our Wii and we found that ours was old and couldn't play the disc. So, I ordered this console on Christmas day in haste and it arrived today. We have had a Wii console since it came out and previously had a Gamecube. Because of this we have many games which we use the Gamecube ports to play. When this console arrived we were perplex that we couldn't open the side flap to reveal the gamecube ports. You can only imagine our childrens disappointment when we realised this model does not come with these. A word to to the wise, if you have older games make sure, if you replace your Wii, you ensure it has the ports specified in the description.

Good bundle at a good price
The Wii may be a rather ancient platform in technology terms, but it can still serve up an enjoyable gaming experience for children and adults that just like fairly simple, but really good fun, computer games. We bought this to replace an old Wii that had finally given up the ghost after years of good service.Mario and Sonic at the Olympics is one such experience. There are lots and lots of different games to play, ranging from fencing, athletics, swimming and even rhythmic gymnastics! The Wiimote is used in a variety of different ways making each game feel different.It comes with Motion Plus controller and nunchuck, but unfortunately Wii Sports Plus is missing in this package.We looked at buying 2nd hand, and once you added up all the bits to make this bundle it came to virtually the same price as Amazon are currently charging for brand new kit.Treat yourself - you won't regret it.

A great value product
I was puzzled by the cheapness of this console compared to the others and thought it must lack something, but I have yet to find anything if it does. The included game is great and this console works just fine with other Wii games. I had 3 very happy kids Christmas morning

Wii system no Gamecube.
This is the basic slim Wii console. It plays only Will games. For those who want to play Wii and Gamecube games buy the Black or White version. Why has the Gamecube function been taken away? If it should play both then keep it so. It still has the two disc symbol when you go on the disc symbol. Why has it not been changed? System does not do what is aked of it.

Read Reviews First
We bought the Wii Console (Blue) for our grand-daughter for Christmas because of its colour. We also gave her the Wii Dance Mat (Nordic Games)and The Smurfs Dance Party because she likes dance games. We didn't realise that Nintendo had changed the spec on their latest consoles so as not to have any Game Cube sockets (I think they are called this) whereas the regular Wii has a run of 4 under the top flap; this meant the Dance Mat had nothing to plug into. Going from 4 input sockets to none at all is poor and I bet we weren't the only people caught out by this strange decision. Sure we can return the Dance Mat to the store, but the damage is done as it was a Christmas present to a little girl. In all the adverts for the Blue console we read "New Slim Style" "Blue" and with "whatever game" but we never saw anything that said "Lite version" which would have made us think that perhaps it wasn't the same as a regular console. So in future to avoid disappointment my advice to all on whatever you are buying as a gift, Read the Reviews on it First.
