    Hiya,

    It depends what games you are planning on buying as to whether you will require the nunchuks. A majority of the games only require the wii remote. I have 2 remotes & 1 nunchuck.

    If you are buying 2 extra normal remotes I would buy Wii Play as you get a game & a remote for around £32.99 & then you could sell one of the Wii Play games on ebay for around £15.

    I have a Wii & it is a great console for fun & games with family & friends but if its real gaming you want then I would go for a PS3 - without doubt the best console on the planet!!
    Nationwide bank charges reclaimed - £1500ish
    Matched betting profit - £94.26 - started 17/11/07
    Quidco - £86.31

    thanks for that, its for me , my OH and our 6yr old she'd sit on the gamescube all day if she could and when the yougest goes to bed we all have a family go of mario party and that sort of game, so for mario party 8 i would be ok for just the wii remote but for games like zelda i would need the nunchucks is that right ?
  • we have a wii - and 2 wii-motes and 2 nunchucks, most of the games we play you can only have 2 playing at the same time, if money is an issue, then i would say 2 controllers and 2 nunchucks.
