  • What do you need the nun chuck for? Is it different to the wiimote?
    You plug it into the wii remote for boxing etc it's like another remote

  • ahhh right, thanks wigan. Does that mean that to play Wii play and sports with my husband we will need 2 wiimotes and 2 nunchucks? Sorry for the questions, we really want a Wii but want to make sure we buy what we need and don't buy anything that isn't necessary.

    Boxing is the only game in wii sports you need the nunchuck so if you want to fight each other you need to buy an extra remote and a nunchuck as you get 1 of each in the console pack. You wont be playing the boxing too often 3 rounds on there is like an hour in the gym its a killer and your arms will hurt in the morning.

    tanks in Wii play also make use of the nunchuck but you can play just with the remote
  • Was in my local Llansamlet Tesco(swansea area) this morning and saw a customer purchasing a Wii so i assume they have some in stock.

    If anyone is looking for a nunchuk and doesn't want to pay the inflated prices on ebay, I managed to find one for £12.99 including delivery via the PC World website. I placed my order on the off chance on 26/12 and it arrived on 28/12. Great find when everywhere on the high street is sold out...

    However, I have just checked the site again this morning and they have stopped the delivery option on it now for some reason. Maybe they have sold out again, but keep checking I guess... better than paying over £20 on ebay.

    They do have the classic controllers in stock at the moment tho, also at £12.99 with free delivery.

  • Just spoke to someone at John Lewis on the phone and they said they won't be having any today and not for sometime. I thought I'd try and catch him out and asked if they have had any recently and he said not. My reply was that it was funny they were one sale on the website over the last week on and off.

    Why are so many places lying about stock, everyone keeps saying they haven't got any or had any and in the next breath people are buying them from them.
