Free Wii Downloads
My wife and I decided to buy a Wii for our family. We knew that our active 3 year old would love the Wii’s motion-based games. We also liked that he would get his exercise playing the games as well. Despite all its positive sides, though, we were shocked at the high prices of the games. Most are over $40 per game, and that is a lot of money for our family. In order to make the Wii fit our budget, I started searching for free Wii downloads on the Internet. Thankfully, I found many great sites.
What you need to have:
- A Wii with Internet Connectivity
- The Wii Internet Channel (aka Opera
Browser)
Wii Downloads
Wii Games
One of the best sites on the Internet for free Wii games is www.wiiplayable.com. It offers a variety of flash-based games that will entertain children of all ages.
To access the games, open the Wii Internet Channel and go to www.wiiplayable.com. Once the site displays on the screen, sroll down the page until you see the Wii games. Click “Play” and the game will download to the Wii. This may take several seconds or minutes depending on the game’s size. Once the game loads, follow the on-screen instructions to play the game.
Some of our favorite games are:
- Mini Putt 3
- Duck Hunt (remember the NES version?)
- Bumper Car Madness
