Heh heh heh, might want to return the Wii and get an Xbox360 if you want those games... but in all seriousness, it's AWESOME to see women getting into gaming! YES!

Best advice I can give you though is do not give up if you don't get those shooting games right away. They take practice and you're only instantly good at that genre if you've been playing it for a while. Not sure where you're at in your gaming journey but I've seen too many women get interested in a game and give up after the first week because they just don't get it. It makes me very sad... That hand eye coordination takes practice.

Nah, I'll stick with my Wii. While the shooting games can be fun, I think the majority of my gaming will be spent on games like Mario Kart and the Sims, or dancing games.

PC wise, I used to play WoW and I've played the sims a ton. And Roller-coaster Tycoon. But I haven't played on a game system much in years. I think I gravitate toward games where I take care of people/characters.

Ha ha ha. Fair enough! I'm not a huge fan of the Wii myself which is why I said that. I like those sim games too and freaking ****, I miss playing RCT. I used to drown the guests that weren't happy.

Enjoy your Wii!!

Thanks! I go into nurture mode on RCT too. When the people are all green I'll put them in a little separate path area until they're better. And if they run out of money but they're hungry, I'll set up some booths in that area that are free. I spoil my little characters.

There's one Walk it out. It's fun. it might be easily found at game trader as a used copy. it's interactive too.

The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword is a pretty awesome game. Super Mario Galaxy was pretty fun too. Rayman Raving Rabbids is a really silly game that'll make you laugh a lot!
Do you have friends/kids to play with? Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a game me and my friends have literally spent hours on hours on. And then Mario Kart, of course. There's also New Super Mario Bros. Wii which can be played alone, but it's also two-player and I played with my mom through the whole game.
The Wii was alright overall, but I'm more into the older stuff, like the SNES and N64.
