...and it will be a Wii game that I can enjoy before school. However, I can't decide between Twilight Princess, Mario Kart, or SSBB. I want a multiplayer game...but I don't have two Classic Controllers (or GCN controllers). I do have wi-fi, and what I'm thinking is SSBB, a second classic controller, and a box of Pocky. However, I'd like to play with my family. My sister wants Twiilight Princess, but she wants to play it and it's a one player game and I'm not terribly interested in it. Should I be? She doesn't like fighting games, and Mario Kart Wii...should I buy it? Would it be more expensive than a regular Wii game?

What you hate Tingle too?
Anyway SSBB is probably the best of those games.

Twilight Princess is excellent, and if you're a Zelda fan you really should have played it. But once it's done, it's done. Brawl has more long-term appeal.
Mario Kart is a bit rubbish.

Well, if you don't have a GC controller, get Twilight Princess. Epic game...

Brawl does have Subspace Emisary wich its a blast to play with another person (and its kind like arcade game 90´s style)
Mario kart is the most family friendly (anyone in the family can pick up) and has the best online in the Wii yet (Brawls Wifi is rubish) of those games but its also the one than has least content.
P.D. Brawl can be played with just the wiimote sideways, thats the way I play it (as I find it more precise than the GC controler), people who never had acces to Melee usually find it easier to play with the wiimote sideways.

Actually, I heard Mario Kart is underproduced and won't be available until Christmas.

So, which can I hate: Tingle or Todd?

I'd disagree with Fry and say MKWii is both awesome and would be your best choice (offers online,doesn't need NGC/Classic controller, family will like it, online).
If that one is out of the picture, then it becomes much harder. Brawl give longer appeal but you lack multiplayer and your family wont like it as much. TP is a fun experience, but like Fry said, it's done once the credits roll.

Unless you meant in terms of controller use - in which case are you forgetting you can also play Brawl with just the remote? I don't (good ol' Gamecube controller is permanently fixed to my Wii right now) but that doesn't mean you can't. |

Brawl and Mario Kart are both miles better with the 'mote - nunchuk combo anyway, so don't worry about buying classic / cube controllers.
Go with Mario Kart for the reasons already listed. Its great. Fryguy is a nut.

Woah woah woah. Gamecube control is the way to go on both games! Especially in Mario Kart Wii, because the controls actually work if you use the GCN controller (although you don't get to use all that wide track thanks to not having the ridiculous steering circle you get with the wheel accessory).
Oh yeah. And I'm not a nut. Mario Kart is just plain annoying.

Do a trick with the Gamecube controller. More importantly, hold a wheelie. Go on, do it. Do it and tell me that is superior to just flicking the Wiimote up. You can't. Or you can, but you'd be a filthy rotten liar. Or just wrong. Oh so wrong.
The nunchuk - 'mote combo is the most comfortable controller ever. Cramping your hands together like you do on a regular controller is ridiculous compared to having your arms pratically anywhere (wireless nunchuk would be better though). Doing quick motions by flicking the mote instead of having the have it assigned to some obscure button (hold left bumber and push x - the wizzle is that hobo?) is also better. If you deny you're a fool.
And Mario Kart is not annoying, or at least not any more than the last ones. If blue shells and whatnot affect you too much you just suck / take gaming way too seriously. Get over it.

I'm starting to wonder now, Mr. Molecule...why isn't Mario Galaxy on your list?

Maybe...he's already got it? ;D
Anyway, I'd go for Brawl...TP is pretty easy to beat and has little replay value, whilst MK Wii can get highly infuriating (with the computer getting tons of blue shells, lighning bolts, etc...)

Twilight Princess is not easy to beat. It's full of sidequests to keep you playing for awhile. I liked it way better than Mario Galaxy and Brawl.
Though, I'd also recommend No More Heroes. It's so artsy!

Twilight Princess is not easy to beat. Well then, I must be better at you at these types of games then. I managed to casually stroll through the game, with a great deal of ease, with only Ganon presenting a decent challenge. (Okay, I played the GC version, but both versions are practically the same...right?) Majora's Mask was way harder, in my opinion, than TP. |
