wii party software

Just ordered wii party from Tesco Direct for £24.70, if you buy from Tesco entertainment it is £28.70 - you do get free delivery but you can have Tesco Direct one delivered for store pick up free of charge - just wanted to share incase anyone was thinking of ordering one as stock is pretty hard to find at the moment.

  • I notice that on the direct one says it contains a controller?

    Have you got a link to this? I can only find the game without the controller?
  • I think i may have found it - it's £24.70 on tesco direct and says it includes a controller. But is this a remote? I saw a while ago they had these and had a picture of a remote on the front of the box so it's a bit confusing.
  • I was thinking the same, the ones I have seen inc controller have had the picture on the front with control but this one hasn't?
    Hope it does come with it as I missed out on the last tesco offer.

    I got the software with the remote from the Tesco offer. I really don't think the software alone is worth £22. I bought it mainly for the remote and because it's the sort of thing my MIL will enjoy playing at Christmas. I guess it's handy if you already have 4 remotes but IMO the software is only worth around £10.

    I ordered this during the last week, thinking it was game only. I'm collecting it from store today so will post if it has the remote with it.

    Good story this!
    I ordered it last Saturday, and don't ask me why, but I took a screen shot of the item description. Anyway, I had a call on Monday to say it was in store for me to collect. I was showing a workmate the game and the description had been changed to no-controller!
    I decided to see what would happen so went to the shop to pick up. Sure enough it was the game only. I was told that the game with remote was £38 and they could not give me that for the £24. They looked on the website and as I earlier said, it showed 2no controler". I mentioned the screen shot and they said that if I brought it in I may stand a chance of something. So I drove home (only 1 1/2 miles) printed out the screen shot and took it back to the store. The assistant looked at it, agreed with me that Tesco must have changed their website, circled the "controler included" on the print", Asked me to put my card in the machine and gave me a refund. She then thanked me and went to move to the next in queue. "Hang on" I said "you just suggested that I go home for the screenshot and now you are only giving me a refund". "That's right" she said. I wasn't happy and said that if that's all that I was going to get then I would have just had a refund in the first place and not bothered to go home for the print as suggested by the staff member. She couldn't seem to see my point and in the end asked if I would like to see a manager. To cut a long soory short the manager sought authorisation and gave me the game plus controler for £24.
    Result.
