Please could someone tell me where I can get a Wii Nunchuk controller before Xmas?
Are these things rarer than the Wiis themselves?!

I didn't think that the Nunchuks were that rare. You should try getting hold of one of the official component cables, now they are rare!
I would do a ring around all the major retailers tomorrow and see what you get. Worth trying:
- Woolworths
- Toys r us
- GAME
- Gamestation
- HMV
- PC World
- Comet
- Tesco?
Remeber its Sunday trading hours tomorrow though.0 -

No dont panicComponent cables will just improve the picture quality and use a 480p signal for HD TVs that have component input.
The Wii console comes with the standard composite lead (red, yellow and white cables) with the scart plug attachment. This is the normal connection that you would have received with a Gamecube, Playstation,Xbox, etc.
Sorry for the scare.0 -
Ive just done the rounds trying to buy Wii play none any where but the nuchucks were all over game asda woolies no problem remember you do get one included in the console.0

Hi does anyone know the cheapest place to get the Wii Play and remote bundle??
They are normally £35ish, but really looking to spend £30.. I saw it somewhere on here for £29.99 but cant find it through search.0 -
No worries, found it at powerplaydirect for £29.99... delivery is 1-3 weeks though. Tried HMV £32.99, could add a cheap sale item and use a £5 off £35 code... although HMV say on order from supplier, grrr.
Thought I would post this incase it helps anyone else too :beer:
Btw try ebay for a nunchuck controller, there are plenty on there!0 -
From personal experience, I wouldn't order from HMV because their customer service and speed of dispatching back-orders seems terrible. I still have a Nunchuk backordered from their site on the 16th November despite them turning up in their high street stores all over the country.
I've never ordered from PowerPlayDirect but would imagine they would send it faster than HMV. PowerPlay will give 4% Quidco too.
Seems like they are pretty scarce everywhere where so if you want it cheap you are probably going to have to waitMaybe worth giving high street stores a call in the morning when deliveries should be running back to normal again.
If anyone finds an official component cable anywhere then please let me know0
