WOW !!


had my first ever experience of this yesterday - what fantastic fun

and so good for getting some exercise if like me you feel too out of place at a gym these days lol

Oh and I so want to have a go on the new Wii Fit that's coming out lol


Right - so if I buy one - what do I get in the basic console pack - and what might I need to buy as extras - anyone help??

I said i would get one for the exercise bit...but i played two rounds of boxing and hurt muscles i didn't know existed

PS..Argos are doing a good deal at the mo

Welcome to Wii Anonymous Anita lol

They are good aint they I try to do at least 20 mins a day on ours and yesterday got me best wii fitness age off 22!

Not sure what comes in the packs now but when I bought ours the first christmas they came out you had the wii, 1 controller, 1 nun chuck and wii sports

Jax xx

LOL Julie

Well I have to admit i was thrashed at t bowling by a 3 year old ........ but I'm a whizz at the tennis - I have a wicked ace serve lolol

Hi Jax - good to see you back :O))


Is the controller in the pack cordless or do I need to buy special ones ???

Anita

you'll get the console, 1 controller, 1num chuck plus wii sports as Jax said. But shop around as prices will vary, also the shops will do bundles. You'll get a game or two inculded in the bundle price. Games work out bit cheaper this way.

I was exactly the same as you. Tho I kept thinking about getting one, but kept saying I couldn't justify spending all that money on another console ( kids have several) Went on friends to please her son really, and never looked back. Brought my own console within 2 days. And now the kids are the ones begging me cos they want to play my wii!!!!

LOL !!! Welcome to the world of the Wii lololol

Argos do a great console deal but it's home del only. Works out to be about £180 inc del.

You get the controller, one numchuck (sp) Wii sports and the console itself. You can buy extras later on but that will start you off.

I've pre ordered the wii fit and am getting it for my birthday......so I'll let you know if it's any good lol xx

Hi,

Got my hubbie one for Christmas and its still in its box.

Me thinks i will open it later and have ago.

R.B.x

Thanks hun :o)

They are the cordless ones

Shelly...Just loading up me car and on my way round to you lol

Anita...I have for awhile thought about getting one but mine is the same as Shelly i need to justify spending all that money lol

the one in the pack will be what you need. We have brought a special charger tho to save on batteries. See argos item 568/0645

Julie

go for it, it IS worth the money. And you're welcome round here, but currently have two kids playing it and two more waiting!!!

I felt it was hard to justify but went ahead anyhow and don't regret it one bit....... My mum is round every day using it too......it IS great exercise and great fun too .........my advice to anyone would be go for it.........but whatever you do don't play it for three hours solid on the first day, like I did ....... I couldn't move my right arm for two days lol xx

Well yes it's a fair chunk of money - but i have the luxury of a few pennies to spare for a treat just now - and i figure it's got to be cheaper than a gym membership or loads of exercise dvd's that i don't use lolol


*hurries off to Argos in her lunchbreak*

Muffy

Pmsl that seems to be the main fault of the wii LOL we suffered the same fate. And i know several others who also suffered.

Thanks Shelly XXXX

The one i was looking at is

Wii Console & Wii Sport, Wii mega accessory pack & 3 games for £240. saving £55

That Wii fit looks good, & with over 40 activities

Julie - where have you seen that offer ???

Julie

thats sounds like a good deal, as the mega pack retails at appox £30 alone. Console plus sport is about £180. So thats £210. And if you don't like the games there are various shops where you can trade them in, for cash or part exchange on a different game.

Anyone for tennis?

I love it too and tennis is my favourite....so if you fancy a game McAnne....

I really want the Wii Fit. Do you reckon it's best to pre order it? I reckon it might sell out pretty quick
