The Wii has a 'Virtual Console' which lets you download the old games for a small price.
Heres a link to the Nintendo website about the 'Virtual Console'

There have been lots of details floating around about this topic of the Wii so I have copied this from Wikipedia to show my fellow gamers:
The Wii console supports wireless connectivity with the Nintendo DS. Shigeru Miyamoto said Nintendo was still working out when features using this connectivity would be available, but that it would be soon after the launch of the system, due to the popularity of the Nintendo DS.[56] At Nintendo's corporate policy meeting in June 2006, Satoru Iwata explained that the DS uses its wireless connectivity to communicate with Wii and that no further accessories will be needed.
The connectivity will allow the player to use functions like the Nintendo DS's microphone and touchscreen as inputs for Wii games. The first example Nintendo has given of a game using Nintendo DS-Wii connectivity is that of Pokémon Battle Revolution. Players with either Pokémon Diamond or Pearl will be able to play battles using their Diamond or Pearl Pokémon on Wii with the Nintendo DS as a controller.[57]
It has also been confirmed that the Nintendo DS will be able to play game demos downloaded from the Wii console which they would receive from Nintendo, similar to a DS Download Station.[56] The console will also be able to update and expand Nintendo DS games.
Most of the newer DS games are being made to support the Wii and as we will be able to download demos of the new games form the Wii I think you will be a lot better off with a DS as well as a Wii.
I have a DS as well and I am considering buying the web browser for it. If anyone here has it could you send me a review please.Notice from jlhaslip:added quote tags

I am defintly getting a Wii and I have pre-ordered it.

As we get closer and closer to the launch of the Wii more and more details about the games are coming to us.
You can now pre-order most games from all good retailers.
Nintendo have announced that 27 titles will be out in UK at launch.
I would like to know what games people are looking forward to so I can make up my own mind. I have already decided to buy Red Steel but I am not pre-ordering!
Here is some info about the five games in the poll:
The Legend of Zelda : Twilight Princess
Publisher: Nintendo
We could have been playing this a year ago on GameCube, but Nintendos decision to hold it back in order to integrate Wii control could prove a masterstroke. Now confirmed as a Wii launch title, Twilight Princess will singlehandedly offer the triple-A quality which the GameCube's own launch lineup lacked. With the GameCube version now put back to December, this is surely the title everyone will want to play on their new Nintendo system - and with motion-sensitive arrow aiming and controller-swinging swashbuckling in the offing, we cant blame them.
Red Steel
Publisher: Ubi Soft
Another launch title, Ubi Softs intriguing Japanese-themed first-person action title promises a unique oriental flavour that would improve the cultural diversity of any systems games catalogue. More importantly, it may just be the game that gets the most out of the innovative control system on day one ironic, considering its also a thirdparty title. By moving with the Nunchuk analogue stick, shooting with the wand B trigger, and both aiming guns and swinging swords with the Remote, were hoping to really feel like a badass Yakuza in a way a joypad just couldnt achieve.
Rayman Raving Rabbids
Publisher: Ubi Soft
Not your typical Rayman platformer, Raving Rabbids is instead a less conventional collection of minigames offering yet another excellent example of the diversity of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. Developed by Michel Ancel, the man behind the brilliant Beyond Good and Evil and the critically acclaimed King Kong videogame, players will control Rayman to partake in a variety of shooting, racing, rhythm-action and Warioware-style micro games in a bid to thwart the advances of an evil race of cute little alien bunnies. As ydo!
WarioWare : Smooth Moves
Publisher: Nintendo
Warioware and Wii is an obvious marriage, so it will be no surprise to see the minigame mad series making its debut amongst the new systems first generation titles. What is surprising is the sheer imagination applied to using the Remote in some of its tasks, with everything from balancing the controller in the palm of your hand to wiggling your hips holding it at your side required of the player with not a moments rest in between. This is sure to be a fan favourite, and could well be the title to launch the Wii as a multiplayer platform when it releases shortly after the machine itself.
Although it comes bundled with the Wii here is some info for Wii Sports:
Wii Sports
Publisher: Nintendo
Wii Sports will come as part of the package with Nintendo's new console, getting gamers used to the concept of motion-sensitive interaction with an intuitive, pick-up-and-play dynamic.
Presenting stylised forms of tennis, golf and baseball, as well as new additions bowling and boxing too, gamers will wave the Remote as a racquet, putt with it as a club, swing it as a bat, flick it as a bowling ball, or connect it to the Nunchuk to jab with both hands, in a variety of highly entertaining singleplayer and multiplayer games. If the depth of all the simulations holds up as hoped, then this could be an excellent piece of first-generation software to take home on day one.

This Information Was Just Put On Nintendo's Website:With less than a month to go before Wii hits the shops in Europe, the build-up has reached boiling point; not only in the gaming press but in the mainstream media, too. Respected American magazine Popular Science has voted Wii the Grand Award Winner in its 'Best of What's New 2006' awards, in the Home Entertainment category. Popular Science, which has a readership of more than seven million, voted Wii into first place ahead of a state-of-the-art hi-definition TV, a wireless music system, a Blu-ray disc player and a pair of $2000 hi-fi speakers. That's Wii for you: affordable and award-winning! The magazine's website, PopSci, had this to say about Nintendo's new console: "Remember when videogames were fun? When the controllers had only a couple of buttons and you didn?t have to spend an hour learning the seven-step finger dance for 'walk?' Nintendo does, so it took a step back, looked at its superpowered competitors, and took a totally different path with its new console, Wii."

I know a few people who have had this problem, there isnt anything that can be done, some routers just done work.I personally use a belkin54g and that works fine with both my DS and Wii (as well as our home network).
