No they are fine at the moment but give it another month and you won't be able to get one or a Nintendo DS.

Yup.

When you buy a Nintendo DS for €149 you get one of the following free, Brain Training 1 or 2, Maths Training, Sight Training, Big Brain Academy or 42 All Time Classics.

and get €5 off another game or accessory pack.

(Am I allowed do this if somebody asks me a question?)

I picked up the wii deal at lunchtime. The 'free' game i got with it was Mario Kart with the wheel!
The savings on the receipt - €104.97! Rather happy about that

Hmm, getting a Wii for my daughter's Xmas present, this looks like a better deal then 25% off at Tesco, for €67 extra you are getting a free game, another controller and a nunchuck, which is definitely a good deal. Very tempted.

The one in Gamestop is also quite good too. The wii including wii sport, extra controller, nunchuck, Wii Play, MarioKart with the wheel, and any €29.99 game for €329. So you are getting Wii Play along with another game extra to the extravision deal assuming you take Mariokart as your game with the extravision deal

Thats a better deal than that from Gamestop so. So comparing like for like, It will cost €279 for Wii and extra controllers plus any €49.99 or less game,+€5 extra for Wii Play+€29.99 for another game of that value= €314 compared to €329 in Gamestop.

Aer you sure ?
I phoned XTRAVISION (where I bought the bundle last night) and they have no information. They say that I could have opted for Wii Play as the game included, but they had no detail on any add-on offer.
Also, are there any other such add-ons ?

Got this deal yesterday. Added the Wii Play for extra 5.00 Euro.
Just go back to the store and get them to change the extra Wii controller valued at 45.00 euro for the controller with the Wii Play game included valued at 50.00 euro. This is how the extra 5.00 is added in. Hope this helps.
Not too sure if there are any further ad-ons but imo highly unlikely.

See my other post on Zavvi deals for wii controller rechargeable battery pack (8.00 euro each) that connects onto back of Wii controller and will save you a small fortune in replacement battery costs.

Cheers,

Hard to believe the RRP of the Wii is still €270, 2 years after release.

All it is is a Gamecube with a new controller and a measly(in fairness) 512MB of Flash memory.

You'd think with the price of memory lately Nintendo could throw in at least 2GB.

I'm still refusing to buy one.
Super Mario Galaxy is the only game that interests me on the system TBH.

It's not expensive for the use it gets. Theres mobile phones with less technology and cost more.

I've been looking around for the last few days for some WII deals and luckily enough spotted this thread this morning after which I ran up to my local Xtravision and bought the console with their deal. Thanks Jenno.:D:D

Hi Neonitrix,

I got this deal in Xtravision Blanchardstown Centre. Just get your local store to phone Blanch and that should clear up any issues.

Bought one of these deals in walkinstown, they had no extra controllers in stock but they said they'd ring me when they get them in just bring receipt, does anyone if I can get one in another store?
