Yes, Wii Sports.
Of course only if u r getting a JPN Wii that doesn't include this.
US Wii came with Wii Sports.

mmm.... For family bonding session only...
Theni might recommend something different,
the 12 games i recommended are mostly "core games" for gamers.
You should get:
Boom Blox
Mario Kart Wii
House of Dead series
Carnival Games
Wii Play
Cooking Mama series
Wii Music
Rayman Raving Rabbit
......

These are for parties and bonding.

I will still recommend Animal Crossing in Family Bonding time, although I'm not sure how many people can play at the same time. Advertisement on Nintendo channel imply two people can play at the same time, maybe more.

For a boy i intro :
The legend of Zelda : Twilight Prince (a must of wii games)
Metroid Prime 3 ( strategy + shooting)
Call of Duty : world at war
Resident Evil.. if u like ghost:P
House of Dead..
No more Heroes ..if u like GTA

Trauma Centre : New blood also nice, be a surgeon:P


My Top 12 List is

Super Smash Bros Brawl
Super Mario Galaxy
Mario Kart Wii
mario party 8,
wario ware : smooth moves,
wii music
The legend of Zelda : Twilight Prince (a must of wii games)
Metroid Prime 3 ( strategy + shooting)

Remember to ask for a US Wii,
I think the Malaysia/Asia Wii also included Wii Sports.

@Khaishin

Yea! I almost forgot Samba de Amigo! Yea, that is a nice party game.

As for Zelda Twilight Princess, if already have the GameCube version,
than can skip Wii one, both almost same.

Internet connectivity is there, but if you want to surf you need to buy the application called Wii Opera Browser.

Wii is WiFi ready out of the box,
unlike earlier consoles or 360.

Your manual come with a clear instruction on how to detect your wireless network.
Remember, when they ask u to select country, select BRAZIL.
This is the famous "Brazil Hack", because other wise u won't be able to buy Wii Points using Credit Cards.

To surf the net, u gotta download a Browser via WiiWare, which will cost.... like 500 WiiPoint, not sure.

So that means have to create a wireless network from, say, my PC ? Allright, and thanks again for the head up.

Yes, from your PC/Mac, or straight from your wireless router,
or any wireless internet within detection (say Starbucks)

And i remember u can connect straight to modem with wire as well,
but not sure how to do it, it should be quite simple.

You'll have to purchase a 'Wii network adapter' in order to use wired cables. Official ones are RM100+ I think(but there are 3rd party ones aswell), so I'd recommend wireless router for multiple connections. That is unless you prefer smoother gaming online with the Wii, then the network adapter is preferable.
