    See www.find-games.co.uk - all around that price but see what discount vouchers you can find and which site has the best cashback to get best deal.
  • If anyone has seen some offers on Wii consols etc., please let me know - thanks.

    We ordered this on the 30th Dec and it is due for delivery on Saturday (10th). It initially said the 12th but has come forward.
    Beware though, they charge you £179.13 not £149.13 and when I rang I was told it was because we do not have a credit account with them but the £30 will be refunded onto my bank card when it has been despatched. Very cheeky as it does not tell you that at any point.

    Will let you know when it and the refund reach me :T

  • DH came home from work yesterday saying that a lot of guy's at work had had Wii's for christmas (or their kids had;) ) and they were all raving about them. Now the thing is id like to get him one but i know nothing about them, i asume that you can buy them as a package but what would be the best thing to get?, what would we need? a remote thingy, or 2, I think he would like to get fit on one so is a balance board neeeded?

    I know these are basic questions but we havent played games etc on the tv since Sonic the hedgehog in the 80's. so any help/info on a website were i can read up on it would be great.

    Thanks
    My mind tends to wander............If found please return;)

    I can spell...................I just cant type:confused:

    I don't know much about them (yet) as I've had mine less than a week.

    You will need a Wii console which comes with Wii Sports plus one remote and one nunchuck (which is needed to play some games). I paid £176 for mine from HMV but they don't have stock at the moment. Best bet is to just google Wii and then go onto one of the stock checker sites for info on who has them in stock and the prices, they update every minute or so.

    As for the Wii fit, this comes with the balance board. I paid £69.99 for mine but it was part of a bundle from Game, I chose the bundle with Ravin Rabbids game and it was £94.97 altogether - so I paid £24.98 for the Rabbids game which is the same as I paid for my grandsons at Christmas.

    They seem to sell out very quickly at the moment so your best bet is to go onto one of the stock checker sites and just hope you get lucky. Decide what your limit is £-wise and don't pay over the odds, you'll get one at a reasonable price if you're willing to keep checking and wait.

    People are posting Wii fit finds on this thread.

    I'm looking for a Nintendo Wii (which seems to come with Wii sport) and Wii fit.
    Is anybody aware of a bundle where I can get them together or where the best prices are for them individually?
    Thanks.
