My youngest saved up his birthday money and bought one. I will echo what others have said about how difficult it is to find one. We went round just about every where but ended up finding one in Sears.
It is worth getting the extra controller, but you can manage with just one to start with, you just have to keep swapping between players.
The sports pack that comes with it is awesome. We can play those games for an entire weekend without it getting old. The gameplay itself is fantastic, way more involving than your usual video game and everyone else playing gathers around to watch each other. It really is quite a social activity.
