I want to buy a Nintendo Wii console

Any cheap deals.. the cheapest i;ve seen is £169.90 at with a game http://www.johnlewis.com/230652555/Product.aspx?source=46387

i am not too keen in Wii fit. i heard that there are other work outs much better than that one, so can anybody help ?

    For just the basic Wii package (with Wii sports), Toysrus have it at £159.97 with free delivery.

    The game with the JL one can be bought for £7 new at Cex. so this is probably a better deal.

  • Great deal from Toys'r'us - thanks for that one Hush-Puppy!

    Not sure about the game though - tennis sounds good, but the rest sound a bit less physical (bowling? - why?). I'm trying to find a game that gets you fit but is also fun for all the family (i.e not wii fit either). Anyone with any ideas, please let me know!

    Hiya, Wii sports comes with every Wii console as standard - sorry for the confusion!

    If you want some good 'active' games, check out Mario & Sonic at the olympics, Wii Play, Family party and More game party. Those are good for all ages! The most physical one from that lot would be Mario & Sonic at the olympics. Family Trainer (with mat) looks good too, but we've not tried it.

  • I have family trainer will mat and is fab. AM very unfit but this is short fun bursts of exercise that leave me sweaty and heart pounding!! i would definately recommend it. My 11 year old niece also likes and can do really well at it (better than me at times) Well worth the investment.
