Nintendo WII wanted (merged threads)

stormbreaker

I am going out later to buy OH a Wii for his birthday. I think Zavvi is doing the best deal at the moment. Do I need an extra contoller? and if so is this the one that is priced close to £15?

I would advise another control, but it is the remote that you primarily want - If you check the back of the game boxes, in the top right hand corner there's a blue bar that tells you how many players can play, and what they need. 99% require at least remotes. The one prices at around £15 is the nunchuck - A lot of games need this but some don't. I would advise getting both, if you can afford it - But shop around for the best deal. I picked up a new nunchuck at Tescos for £12. The cheapest I could find in-store. :P

I managed to get:
Wii & sports pack £173.99 + £4.99 delv. (dvd.co.uk)
Big Brain Academy £15.79 free delv. (dvd.co.uk)
Kingston Elite Pro SD card 1GB 50x £4.99 + £0.99 delv. (dvd.co.uk)

Wii Play with extra remote £29.99 free delv. (whsmiths.co.uk)
Twin remote charging station inc. 2 battery packs £8.99 + £3.95 delv. (mymemory.co.uk)

Pre-ordered:
Mario Karts inc. wheel £27.20 + £1.75 delv. (littlewoodsdirect.com)
Wii Fit inc. balance board £55.20 + £1.75 delv. (littlewoodsdirect.com) Expected delivery date 6th May (but Mario Karts wasn't expected to be delivered till 17th & it arrived today so Wii Fit might turn up a few days earlier too!)

Decided the only other things I need are an extra nunchuck & a LAN adapter to get online.

Everything arrived REALLY quickly!! Only waiting on Wii Play & Wii Fit (but not released yet I know). Earnt over £16.00 on Quidco and paid on a Tesco credit card so earnt clubcard points to turn into Deal vouchers too!!
A lot of money to spend but well worth it!!
Nearly killed me the first day of play only down side... I now don't get anything else done!! :rotfl:

Hi everybody
iam hoping somebody can help please
i have looked through the site and cant seem to find any threads on the nintendo wii

my daughters birthday soon and was wanting to get the whole package & she would also like the wii fit & the mario cart with the little steering wheel things lol
i dont know what is actually needed as i dont know anything about these consoles
do i need to purchase controlls seperatly ?
do these come with it ?

I was considering argos as had a look on there and could get interest free for 9 months if i done this would it be possible say after 5 months to transfer the lot to a not % card ?
Can i go through Quidco ?

can somebody advise me please on whats needed and best way to pay
i do have a good credit score and really need the best deal to keep price down
Its a lot for a birthday but she has stayed on at school and done great with exams i think she deserves it


Thanks in adavnce for any help its much appreciated

Have a look on the grabbit board as lots of wii threads on there incl fit & mario.

Quidco, a lot of places don't give on the main wii purchase but they do on the games & accessories.

I am sure an expert will be along soon!

I tried my local ASDA they dont have smackdown although they do have the wii and sonic, but no point getting that without Smackdown. Thanks

Hi,
I have no idea about the wii but
I want to buy my husband one for his birthday, which is in 2 weeks time. I want to be able to purchase a package that has everything in to be able to just plug-in and play. Can anyone tell me of any good deals and packages.

Thankyou, in advance.

£230

on the front page of the site click on the mario kart option, and have a look there.

I think that's the correct package, if i've included everything correctly?! i can't check it right now.
