Hi.i know the wii is going to retail at 249 euro,and will include wii sports,but thats all i know.
do u get the 3 controllers as well?if not then its bad as the joystick is 20 euro,the classic controller 20 euro and the virtual one is 30 euro,,,,,these are singly priced[wikipeida prices,might not be accurate]

and will marvel ultimate allance be out on release date?

You only get 1 Wii-mote and nunchuk in the pack and Marvel is only out on release day in the US.

You didn't seriously think you were gonna get three controllers with the console did you?!
Developers make a lot of their money off of the accesories that you buy, so they're hardly gonna give awa three of them!

Nintendo Wii is cheap but not silly enough to give away 3 controllers...

The most you could hope for is the inclusion of another Wii-mote(withoutNUnchuk)

PS. i believe the NUnchuk is €20 , the Wii-mote is €40 and not sure of the Virtual Console..
buying accessories for this console - i hope it wont be a gimmick all the same, it already is since the nunchuk is sold separate of the Wii-mote..

but whatever keeps Nintendo afloat is fine by me!!
I just hope game developers make multiplayer games that rock and only utilise the Wii-mote!! :cool:

will Metroid Prime: Corruption be a launch game for the wii ????

TheAlmightyArse

Nope.

Bundled with the Wii, you get Wii Sports, a remote and a nunchuck. There will also be a "budget" priced compilation game out on day one with the likes of Duck Hunt on it that will come with a free remote.

No 2007, it was supposed to be but it was delayed for some reason.

Hi there all, Have wii preordered can't wait But a few questions. If you want to play 2 player do you need a 2nd nunchuck as well as a second wiimote?. If you want to play some of the classic downloadable games what controller would you need? What is the classic controller I see advertised? Ya I'm confused.

thebman

It depends on the game.

If a game only needs a Wiimote then you need two to play obviously.

If a game requires a nunchuck and Wiimote, you'll need two of each to play.

If it's a classic game or a Gamecube game, you'll need the Classic controller.

GC controllers can't be used for Virtual Console games, only GC games.

Thanks, that clears up that. I'll have to buy both wiimote and the classic.
