Hey, I'm getting a Wii and I wanted to make sure I had everything down that I would need to fully enjoy it.
-The Wii itself -Wii Controller x2 -Nunchuck x2 -SD memory card. I had a question about that, can I just buy any old SD card and use that, or do I have to use the Wii's SD card?
Is there anything I'm missing that is basically an essential for the Wii?
You don't really need an SD card if your not intending in downloading VC games as the Wii's memory is quite vast. Also a GC controller and memory card for saving playing GC games, and finally a weapon (of your choice) to bash the trollers round the head (example above) Happy Gaming !!

OK, so I don't really need the SD card unless I'm planning on buying Virtual Console games? I can keep my game saves on the 512MB of flash memory in the Wii itself?
Last thing on memory: do I need a GC memory card in order to save GC games or can I save them on the internal flash storage?
Also, you're saying that the cables that come with the Wii don't support 480p?
So I should buy component cables like these if I want 480p on my HDTV, right?

Yeah don't bother with an SD card yet, You DO however need a GC memory card to save GC game data it won't save on the Wii memory unfortunately. The cables do support 480p but the component cables you linked above^^ will just give an improved picture quality compared to the standard scart you get with the Wii, not an essential but I'm fussy and bought the component cables anyway :D
I'd say hold the SD card, I'm yet to find any use for it. You can only backup to it anyway. If you want to play GC games you MUST have a GC controller and a GC mem-card. I also strooongly recommend a classic controller. SNES games aint that good with a GC one, and its wireless and slick and everything... kinda cheap to.
Yes, you do need a gc memory card to store you're gc game data. The games I recomend is Zelda TP, Elebits, Wario Ware and Excite Truck and mabye SSX Blur when it comes out.
