Set up the mario kart WFC last night and was playing a friend in belfast - mighty craic!

Is there any way you can play friends plus have the other characters in the race?

CB, either you or your friend should join a worldwide vs race, then a wee message should could up saying that your friend is online and currently in a vs race. It will give you the option of joining him and just hit the "join friend" button and hey presto, the both of you's are racing against the American's and Europeans and Japanese

Cheers corporal

How do you download the browser, i tried but it said i needed 500 points, how do you get them?

Also, does anyone have fifa, shocking hard to play!

We got one last week, had a go at Tiger Woods PGA 09, driving and approach shots to the greens are ok (in easy mode) but putting is an absolute nightmare.

Bought CoD too, haven't played it yet though - does anyone know if you need the gun adaptor for it?

Also got My Fitness Coach, for obvious reasons 

Don't have a wireless connection at home but will be getting the USB to RJ45 adaptor so play online so will join in if I can

Lads, seriously, get a real console.

CoD is best played without an adapter, tried it myself with one and it is difficult as hell!!

RIght have bought the wii for the eldest (6 yo) and need some advice on accessories. Firstly do I need additional controllers as come with 1 off motion control and 1 off nunchuk? What is difference in wii remote and motion control? Can you get decent adult games? By adult I don't mean pornographic.

Thank you.

Additional controllers are handy, saves passing it back and forth between people.  Am not sure about the difference between wii remote and motion control.  You can get many adult games for it, just depends what you are into

Cracked open the box there and I now realise that the nunchuk is an extension of the remote rather than two separate controllers so I'll buy a couple extra and Mario Kart as it was played flat-out on the snes circa 1994/95!

Anyone downloaded any games from Wii channel? Just looking at them here now, some great NES, Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 games can be bought.

Got a Wii for my birthday a few weeks ago,they are great craic.
Got Tiger Woods 11 which is excellent and Mario Cart is great fun.
Any other games worth buying?

Haven't played a whole lot of the actual Wii games, but I'd definitely recommend having a look on Wiiware (the equivalent of Xbox Live) and looking at some of the classic games you can download. Downloaded a few myself and there are some great games for cheap prices.
