Re: Wii Remote

I believe the ones at ASDA are madcatz so not orginal, reviews of them say they are not the cleaver.

Instore only Asda selling unofficial Wii Nunchunk for £5 and Wii remote for £15 - Page 2 - HotUKDeals Forum

I would (As I Did) Buy the game Wii Play and get a remote with that, mabe gameshops in town will do a pre owneded one or try ebay.

Here is what I mean.
Play.com (UK) : Wii Play (includes Wii Remote) : Nintendo Wii - Free Delivery

Re: Wii Remote

thanx for that Mr D, i was asking one of the lads at cash gen the other day if they get them in often....and they don't

don't fancy trying one of those from Asda because i bought a docking station and battery packs from Argos yesterday and i doubt the battery packs will fit them


oh by the way, the docking stations and battery packs have gone down to £6.66 at Argos in the sale (down from £19.99) if anyones interested

Re: Wii Remote

They are good but you have to keep taking the clear grip things off to charge them though. You can't charge them with the precision thingy on the bottom either. I just use rechargeable batteries in ours.

Re: Wii Remote

typical, you like it uncovered, can you feel it better

They brought them out to try and stop people throwing the wiimote at each other and the TV. They even gave them free to people who bought Wii's before the grip things came out. You just filled an online form in and they sent them to you

Re: Wii Remote

Having had most games machines I find the original controllers are always the best, longest lasting etc.

I still have working original xbox controllers while the madcatz etc have all failed.

Mrsmatty wants another wii controller with motion plus, thats gonna cost the best part of £50. Not cheap

We have an old one that keeps losing connection, I'm going to have to sort that out when I get a roundtuit

Re: Wii Remote

hey flashy i just ordered my 5th item from china today on ebay and so far not had a single problem, even if you did paypal always and i mean always side with teh buyer not teh seller if you pay through paypal due to their new policy of scew the seller no matter what.

you should be ok an dpaypal have you covered and also the controlers are genuine nintendo parts just got chineese writing on teh box but a dam sight cheaper
