Looking for the best deal on the Wii console with or without games

[StifflersMom]

We decided to get some family members to pool their money and get one great gift for the kids. I am looking for the best deal on a Wii console. Does anyone know where I should go??

Do you want a new one or a great deal?

Right now Nintendo has reduced the price to $199. This includes the Wii sports game and 1 controller/nunchuck.

We priced everything we wanted new and then went on to craigslist and cut our price in more than half.

We got the console, 4 controller, 2 nunchucks, wii sports game, tons of games previously downloaded onto the console, Wii Fit game, Wii fit balance mat, and all the originial boxes for $205. Just $5 more than the original console. Well, Not when you add in tax.

I was kind of unsure at first b/c what if it didn't work etc, but I took my DBF with me and had the person plug it in, put a game in, play it, etc. It works great!!

New you can get it at almost any store and it will be $199. Some stores will offer a bonus game in addition to Wii sports, just look at weekly ads for Target, Best buy, Kmart, Sears, etc.

Thats a good idea, so you made a list of what you wanted and what you were willing to pay for each? I am worried about not having the warranty, especially after having dealt with multiple x-box's. I am searching on ebay and right now there is a 8%rebate if you use buy it now and paypal for your wii purchase I found the wii, with wii fit for $285 before the discount. Plus you get ebay bucks. Still looking to see if I can find anything better. Thanks for the reply.
