Anyone Have Any Info?

I recently bough a wii package from argos which included the console, all the leads and sensor bar, wii sports and 1 contoller and nunchuk. I could do with another controller and nunchuk as its not much fun having to play 1 player games all the time, but ive looked at prices for controllers and the going rate seems to be ?29.99 for the remote and ?15 for the nunchuk, which is a little bit pricey imo! So my question is, does anyone know of anywhere that sells the controllers for less than that? You might say im a cheap skate but we all want things for cheaper! Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks

There was a game that you could buy that came with another free controller. I got it from argos. It is called wii play. I don't know if it is still available.

 

You could always try amazon or ebay!

got ours from cdwow

 

were cheapest at the time

try ebay :good:

I notice that they are advertised as "official" controllers.

Does that mean there are 3rd party versions cheaper on the market?

it cost about ?3 more than a controller but came with a controller, the games aint great though, also only a controller not the bit you need for boxing.

Bought mine from amazon. ?40 ish I think.

Ok thanks alot people, i think cos theyre quite new out the controllers are still really expensive, i'll either have to get in touch with the local smack-head or wait for a good bargain at argos or somewhere like that? Thanks again for your suggestions anyway....... :good:

If you offer a local smack-head some cash for 'finding' you one you deserve to be twatted with the thing.

what is the difference between these remotes and these controllers?

i bought a wii a few weeks back, but still not opened up the box - prezzie for kids at Easter.

realise from what i have read that i need extra controllers, nanchuks, etc.

get an extra remote and an extra numchuck - what it comes with is enough for single player

 

also, buy mario olympics and/or mario galaxy

 

olympics is dead easy to stick in and get on with playing

 

you'll look a red ginger when playing but thats nowt new

 

:p

will the sports games it comes with keep the kids occupied this weekend?

thinking of giving it to them on Friday now - due to the great English weather.

How easy to claim that an ill thought out comment was really meant as a joke. Unfortunately once you have been robbed for the price of the next hit you stop seeing these things as funny!

girls or boys?

away at new year and a dozen kids couldn't get enough of mario olympics
