    Hello,
    Just picked up a second hand Wii (not WiiU) with some games. Just wondering if/where it is easy to pick up some more second hand games? I would have thought that lots would be available but all seem to be being sold privately with consoles. Any recommendations greatly appreciated.

    Also, Im assuming that WiiU games dont play on Wii so are games still bing made for Wii?

    Thanks.

    Games aren't being made for the Wii anymore. You'll find second hand games in CEX and Gamestop.

    The good nintendo stuff will be expensive though, they are still popular and the best games on the system. The extra price is worth it though since you'd rather pay extra for a good game like Mario than a piece of ****, which there is far too much of on the Wii.

    WiiU games won't work on the Wii.

    It is true, for the most part, that game developers have left the Wii behind, but some titles still are being published for the Wii — and they tend to be the kind of games that are aimed at children and families.

    So you can still buy the latest Skylanders set, or Just Dance 2014, for example.

    If you're looking for older, classic Wii games, it's worth having a poke around some online stores, like Amazon or Zavvi. Keep an eye out for the red-framed "Nintendo Select" re-issues: you should be able to pick up titles like Super Mario Galaxy and Mario Kart for twenty quid, new.
