    Hey, I got a Wii recently enough and it already had one of the jackets included with it. Problem is my extra remote(s) don't have any jacket. Does anyone know if it's possible to get more?

    Problem is they won't send free ones if you already got one free with your Wii. The serial numbers don't work with the latest Wiis. So instead of getting 4 you only get 1.

    Are the ones in game stores the same type, are they 3rd-party ones?

    I can't get the free ones from Nintendo cause my Wii is fairly new so it already came with one jacket; serial number doesnt work on the site.

    I want to get a couple more of the jackets like the one that came with my Wii. Are the 3rd-party ones any good or can I buy the official ones anywhere?

    Thanks

    OP I have 2 spare Wiimote covers that Nintendo sent me for some reason (I got two separate deliveries). They're yours if you can cover postage if you are interested.
