The Nintendo Wiimote is darn fun, but it can only go so far. Sure, you can swing it around in Wii Sports or Zelda Twilight Princess, and you can even turn it sideways for old-school NES games on the Virtual Console. Beyond that, however, it's sorely lacking. You can't use the controller to play GameCube games or most Virtual Console titles. Fortunately, Nintendo thought ahead and made the Wiimote accept additional accesory controllers and put four conventional GameCube controller ports on the Nintendo Wii itself. Here are the three top wireless game pads you can use with the Wii. The Classic Controller is by far the most comfortable for Virtual Console games, but it won't play GameCube games at all. The Mad Catz MicroCon Wireless Controller is the least expensive, but it doesn't rumble and doesn't feel quite right in large hands. The Mad Catz MicroCon Wireless Controller is the least expensive, but it doesn't feel quite right in large hands. In the end, we have to side with the good old Nintendo WaveBird. It works with any game you throw at it and feels good in the hand.

Buying A Wii Console - This Is Important To Know

By Wendy Hearn

If there is any one thing you really should know about buying a Wii console it is that you will probably have to spend an little extra to really get the most out of it.

The basic Nintendo Wii package ships with just about everything you need to get gaming within minutes. You get the free Wii Sports games, your console, a controller and your connection cables. And at just $250 for all of this, it provides by far the best value of money out of all the gaming consoles on the market at the moment. You can expect to pay at least $150 more for an XBox or $250 more for a PlayStation 3.

However, if you really want to get maximum enjoyment out of your Wii you may want to fork out a few extra dollars for some extra accessories and equipment.

As with any games console worth its salt, there are countless ways to accessorize your Wii, from controllers to carrying cases. However, there are some that are essential. At the very least you need buy an extra controller. The Wii ships with one as standard but you will definitely want at least one more so family and friends can join in the fun.

Also, the Wii's motion sensitive controllers contain all kinds of technology that saps the life out of your batteries in no time at all. For this reason, you should have a battery charger with plenty of rechargeable batteries to hand, or buy a Wii Charge Station.

Finally, while you can have loads of fun with the standard Wii controller, you may also want to buy a couple of Nunchuk controllers. These plug into the standard controllers and provide the controls needed for certain games. So, you should know before you buy a Wii that you can expect to spend another $100 on accessories to really get the most from it. However, even with this it is still great value for money.

In the globe view in the weather forecast channel, if you grab the world and give it a quick flick the world will go spinning (it works better if you zoom out with the - button) you can only really spin it east or west cause it gets stuck on the poles.

Showdown: A poker showdown occurs when a player is called after the River, and could involve anywhere from two players to the entire table, depending on how many stayed in to this point. All players still in the hand show their cards, starting with the last person to bet. At any point after this player showed his cards other players in the showdown may muck their hand, essentially conceding the pot; just think of mucking as folding. They are admitting they have been beat without having to show their cards. This strategy (mucking) helps keep the other players from learning your playing style, such as if you bet heavy on two pairs or like to chase a flush.
