Need to know. NOW

[Svenok]

I have just been told to find out about these wii.

I haven't had a chance to talk to any salesperson today, because I work 12hour shifts and as stated I was told now.

Here go's.
What does it come with?
Will two children be able to play with it straight out of the box?
Wtf is a nun chuck? How many do I need?
Does it have wireless controllers?
Can I push a button and make the wife disappear?

I'm floundering now because I don't really know what to ask.
Bottom line is two children, two adults will use it.

Thanks to all who answer

1 Controller and 1 nunchuck .
The nunchuck plugs into the controller and has a couple of extra buttons and also the joystick. Nunchucks are not required for all games.
Controllers are wireless.
You can share the 1 controller although obviously easier with more

it's definately worth having more than 1 controller.
we bought a controller and a game pack in one, cheaper than a controller by itself.
Go figure.

usually a shooting game gets the missus to disappear............ although they will return when they want something done, like dishes or bins taken out

Ok thanks. I'm off to buy it NOW.
I hate Christmas, it’s a pagan ritual dominated by commercialism and I'm stuck right in the middle.

You watch, one week into Feb and it's out with Easter eggs.

imo the wii is the best of all 3 consoles
it is no where near as pretty in the graphics dept , but the interface and general gamesplay is by far streets ahead of the others
as well as the huge reliability factor of the machine , its reliability is something MS can only dream of having
