WII - The Next big thing for Xmas!!!!!

I thought this was a grabbit forum, not a place to rate computer games? If you don't want to buy it, don't, there is no need to go on about it!

If I'd described myself as a "serious gamer", it might have been funny, yeah...Like "oh, look at that funny oxymoron you said 'serious gamer'...tee hee hee".

Just saying "you're sad for what you do in your life, not like me, who is great" doesn't sound that funny to me?

I know what you mean but, like I said, I just thought it was funny..... It didn't in anyway make me think of you as sad...

I have been searching loads for either a cheap wii or a good value bundle package for christmas (Yes I know it's still september, but I'm sure they will sell out again in the run up) I've found a few worth looking at.

1. Wii on it's own £159.99 from this online retailer... (I don't know how reliable they are)
http://www.shopto.net/page.php?page=search&matcat=&categ=&platform=&codarts=WIICO00&layout=0
(limited to 1 per customer)

2. WHSMITH (INSTORE ONLY, NOT WEB OFFER) Wii package with additional games: Big Beach Sports (£19.99 instore price) and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 (£39.99 instore price)
Total package - £179.99.... This is the package I went for and the offer wasn't available in my local WHSMITH, but I came across it in Hammersmith store... bargain I say

3. GAME - Wii with free Mario Kart and 1 steering wheel £179.99

4. Currys - (Instore, I had to ask them for their offers)
Wii package with additional 2 games: Big Beach Sports (19.99) and Star Wars - The Force unleashed (34.99 - Instore price)
Total Package £199.99

So there you have it... in my opinion the WHSMITH deal is the best but it depends what games you want. :-)

I have also pre-ordered this game, a couple of months back with Amazon.

Looks more suitable to my youngest 2 children though I am sure we will all be on it.

As for how many games I have personally bought for the Wii, I am actually shocked at how many we have. Just as big a collection as my 15 yr old has for his Xbox 360. Not to mention all the extra accessories. In fact if you take all that into accout our Wii collection is larger than my son's.

Yes I am one of the mum's that play the Wii and my kids think it is great as I have become more understanding of their request for more games to play. It is now me and not them thats looks out for the up and coming games releases.

Id just like to say that as a newbie on here, u are suspected of everything, this poor person who posted this was suspected straight away for "spamming" just for using exclamation marks. I think maybe we shud all give ppl a chance first, whats that saying - "dont read a book by its cover". Sorry if i offended anyone didnt mean no harm, just saying.And thank you for posting this find op, its great.

I like the idea of being able to jump on it without being scared of breaking it (like the Wii fit!!).

Also, it would be good for anyone who cant afford/doesnt have a Wii fit. Something to either use in the mean time or use as an alternative.

Actually looks quite fun, a bit like playing the good old Mario platform, but being in the game yourself. :rotfl:

Tbh it looks like a fairly pants game trying to ride the wave of success from Wii Fit, a game that, despite the hype, is fairly pants...and on a console that, despite the hype, is fairly pants....It's gonna sell millions!

i know where your coming from, but there is the odd bit (only little mind) of good in the wii
