If I were to play DK Jungle Beat on the Wii, would I be able to use the Bongos, or do the Bongos only work when they're used on the Gamecube?

You can't use the bongos.

The guy who made that has also made a Zelda Wii and Zelda DS and sold them on ebay. Anyone have a link to the auctions for them?

The thing is I don't want to waste money buying the game and bongos, only to find that they don't work on the Wii.

Heh, when I went to Toysrus the other day to buy a game there were like 10 people in front of me at the game department and like 5 had bought Wii's. Considering this, I'm surprised they even had Wii's in stock. Perhaps they just got a new shipment?

I just ordered 4 yesterday. Didn't Nintendo say they would package Wiimotes with the jackets now? Because all the Wiimotes I've seen aren't packaged with the jackets.

It'll probably be a while before we see Wiimote Jackets packaged with the Wii. Anyone seen Wii Play packaged with a Wiimote jacket? That'll probably happen as well...

I've been using the Wiimote jackets for a while now and I quite like them. They make the Wiiimote a bit more comfortable... although it was pretty comfortable to begin with! ^_^

But they do work. You connect the Bongos to the GC controller ports on the top of the Wii, just as you would any other GCN controller...

Look at the back of the game. If it shows a picture of bongos on the top right of the game then it works (but somtimes it dosen't show it on the back but it still works >_>). The best answer is to just call up Nintendo and ask them: 1800 - 255 - 3700 they would know.

When I got me Wii, a jacket was already on the controller. So they are at least packaged with systems. No idea about controllers.

I never use mine.

If I'm ever out and randomly see a Wii, I will definitely buy and sell it for profit. The supply is likely much worse since Black Friday and will not improve until January.

Do Wii's sell for over $300 on ebay just for the system?

^ A quick search of eBay would answer that question for you.

When my grandpa came to visit a while back, he tried out our Wii. He did the Wii Sports bowling, and thought it was pretty fun. I think that was the first video game he's ever played in his life.

I got my Wii for my birthday back in February. It took us a month to find one for retail price though.

Around 6 months after I first got the game.
