    It is a rubbish price as you don't get sports resort and the motion plus sensor, which costs £40+ seperately.
  • HMV are doing some good Wii deals at the moment, but this isn't one of them.

    £33.61 from Amazon, although I would rather buy the HMV deal, then buy and extra controller and nunchuck (not from them). Its early days in game support for the motion plus and if you have one, you will be under the usual pressure to buy extra ones for your other controllers at 18 quid a pop (Amazon)

    Oh, and the price is £135 with free delivery.

    The sports resort pack was £135 at Sainsburys a few weeks ago, Asda had a decent resort pack with a Mario game for £169 too, so this HMV deal is not great value.

  • Ok, I’m a complete idiot when it comes to games consoles but my 6 year old insists that he wants a WII for Xmas. I told him that it’d be too expensive but he told me not to worry about the money cos Santa is gonna bring it and his elves are going to make it. What can I say?

    Can anyone tell me what the best bundle deal is? I assume I’ll need a bundle deal cos he’ll want to be able to play Maria Kart & the other Mario games. What else will I need that isn’t necessarily included? Come to think of it I don’t even now what the difference between the sports pack, the resort pack, etc…

    HELP!

    Also does anyone think it’s worth waiting any longer in case they do get cheaper (I appreciate that nobody will know for sure,.,.)

    Thanks a lot,

    Sandra
