    Hey all,

    Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get a cheap wiimote, it has to be official but It doesn't need to be new or have motionplus as I will only be using it to play emulators on my iPad. Some of the prices seem a bit mad considering the wii u has been announced. I checked eBay :rolleyes:, amazon and adverts, 10-15 including p+p would be great. Thanks.

    They will still be used with the Wii U, so the price will stay high-ish.

    Ah okay, did not know that, 10-15 will not be viable then, anyway if anyone has seen them cheap-ish anywhere let me know!

    Just said I would report back, went into my local HMV they didn't have any second hand wiimotes and even if they did they usually would sell them for €40 :eek: went into GameStop just to check thinking I would walk out empty handed as there usually arent great for prices and walked out with one for €25. I was happy enough with it, wasn't going to get it much cheaper on the Internet and plus I have a reciept to take it back if I need to.

    Thanks anyway to everyone who replied.

    sorry I'm late
    Currys and pc world have Wii motion+ remote, official, red, plus WiiPlay+ game for 20 quid. New! Two left in liffey valley pc world as of yesterday.

    You kept the receipt, yeah?;)

    Also, you can get a few ds, Wii and 3ds games for 20 (or 6 for 100. Or was it 8?) in with the Xbox/ps3 offer including Wii and 3ds mariokarts, sm3dw, Wiirayman origins, pokemon b/w and lots of crap. The display is near the front door. Currys had a wiiplay pack near the back with the console accessories.
