    Hi

    Sorry to ask questions that may have already been asked before - I have gone through this thread very quickly and am I right in saying that Wii Console comes with sports game and one remote. What does the nunchuck do? If 4 of us want to play do I need 4 remotes and 4 nunchucks? Also looking at getting the wii-fit. I have seen some back up rechargeable battery packs (??), and twin remote docking stations??

    Thanks. And sorry again if I'm posting a question asked before - I did scan through the pages..... xx

    It's been over a year, any chance of finding them second hand yet? If so where in Scotland?

    I was in Costco Sheffield yesterday & they had loads in stock saving £10 off usual price - obviously only useful if you/ a friend has a Costco card.

    The nunchuck is used as 'another hand' in things like boxing. to be honest I don't know if you need four of each. I haven't bought the recharge batteries or docking stations as the batteries the remotes and the Wii Fit came with have lasted for weeks being used over an hour a day so I don't see the need at the mo.

    You can get preowned units in Game but there;s not much of a saving as they're still very popular. Bets bet is eBay but be careful as there are lots of rogue sellers out there.

    I've managed to find someone who was advertising their Wii console, sport, remote, nunchuck and chargers for £160... I just hope it all works and I don't end up with a dud!

    He says he's only had it a month but doesn't have the receipt anymore... (this is not something i normally do.. .I usually buy stuff from shops so I can take it back if broken etc!!
    fingers crossed!

    Thanks for Nunchuck info..... would anyone be able to help with question below?? Thanks. xx
    I presume if I want to play tennis (for example) I don't necessarily need to buy the tennis racket, I can just use my remote? Sorry if I'm being dumb!
