So, Mrs Geordie has tasked me with acquiring a Nintendo Wii for Geordie Junior this Christmas. Despite having a PS3, I’m no gamer, and have no idea where to start with the Wii.
For example, is the console standard, or are there various versions? I’ve seen that the Wii U is due out at the end of November, but other than the flash new controller, I’m unsure what it really adds. What additional hardware would people recommend? Bear in mind, Geordie Junior is 3.5 years old, so it all needs to be fairly robust.
Finally, can people recommend any good games for younger kids please? Mario Kart will definitely feature, but what else would be appropriate? He likes the idea of tennis, but not sure how easy it’ll be for him without getting really frustrated. Equally, the idea of dancing with Mummy and Daddy appeals as well.
Oh, one more thing. I’m looking to buy second hand – anything to watch out for?
Thanks,
Andy
