How can I play a game online with my Wii with other people in another state? Does Wii offer online gaming?
Hi Christian





You'll need a game with Wi-fi capabilities, look for a blue circular logo stating " Nintendo Wi-fi Connection", here's some examples of games:





*Mario Strikers:Charged Football


*Pokemon Battle Revolution


*Guitar Hero 3





For a full list click the following link and you'll see which games have been and are due to be released and in which region:





http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wii...





Most games allow random matching (you play others randomly) however if your wanting to play your friends then you'll all need to have the same game and then exchange either "Friend Codes" or with any EA game (Fifa'08/Madden'08 etc..) you'll need to know each others Screen Name/tag or similar (EA games run on their own servers).





Perosnally I'd recommend Mario Strikers, its a great game!





If your ever looking for more Friend Codes or more friends for your address book then go here:





http://www.mapwii.com


The Worlds LARGEST Wii number and Friend Code database (over 22,700 Wii Numbers %26amp; over 1200 Friend Codes.





Simply register, send out a few requests, add the numbers of those you requested to your address book and in no time at your address book will start to fill.





Hope this helps you out!
Reply:Um i think you can buy a special ethernet cable you connect into your internet modem but im not sure, there definatly is online play on wii though
Reply:Do you have your Wii conected to the internet??


If so, it depends on the game to weather or not online play is avaliable


in my opinion a fun online game easy to set up to play with your friends is Guitar Hero 3: Ledgends of Rock--$80 bucks or so at gamestop
Reply:if u have ur wii connected to the internet, then go into a game and on the main menu should be something out nintenfo wifi
Reply:The wii can go online and has many online functions including the news channel, shop channel, and many others. The wii does support online game play but only with some games. You should check the back of the game you purchased to see if online game play is supported. If it is supported then you will need to find your friends. Different games will have different ways of doing this. Some will offer gaming room where your friends and you must all be in the same room, while still others may ask you to type in routing information to find a friend. It all depends on the game. So I would recommend checking out your games specific manual for more information. Best of luck to youa nd happy gaming!
Reply:You will need a game that offers online play, like Mario Strikers, check the game box to see whether a game allows online play or not.
