same price @ CEX with 2 year warranty

Nice to hear your girlfriend hasn't previously been on the game.

Good price. Arguably the best console ever given it still has a great Virtual Console line-up, plays Gamecube games and has some of the best games ever made (SMG1+2, Xenoblade Chronicles, definitive versions of Resi 4, Okami, Pikmin 2). Many of these are dirt cheap.

Mine is now used by my 5-year old daughter for games like Animal Crossing. Mario Kart and Wii Sports. Great value for the hours you get out of it.

You couldn't pay me take this awful console lmao.

If your playing Gamecube games on your Wii always use a componet cable and always play the NTSC versions of the games. That way you can force them to play in progressive scan mode (480p)and they'll look so much better.

Fantastic game.

Exactly the same as the arcade, you just don't have to keep putting £1 coins in haha

I never got the gun to play that and CEX do them for £3. Is the game worth playing?

I've just finished playing HoTD3!

After this deal, I have busted out my Wii and loaded up my wii light gun games. All on the rail shooters, house of the dead and Resident Evil. Still so much fun! Console at this price after softmodding it is worth it, every penny!

Because we're all entitled to our opinion on products and he/she didn't like it. Plus there's no need to tell him to crawl back under a rock that's just me voicing my opinion. I'm just saying mate we should all be civilised as we're all on here for the same reason and that's to bag a bargain buddy. :stuck_out_tongue:

OOS?

How old is this console plz? I suppose this would be OK for an 8 year old

Although a good buy,so heat added,I have not used my Wii in years thanks to the superb upscaleable PC Dolphin emu.
As far as the sensor bar goes,get an original second hand wireless Nintendo one (I got mine for £20 from the U.S,delivered),fantastic bit of kit,batteries last ages,as does the LEDS,unlike the plethora of cheap knock off versions I have had the misfortune to own,including the so called 'Dolphin Bar',which lasted all of an hour....
As for the Wii Motes,a cheap bluetooth dongle,and a copy of Bluesoleil worked wonders for me,although the newer versions of the Dolphin emu apparently has bluetooth connectivity built in (have not used it in a long while).

Far superior selection of games at a fraction the cost of a Switch. You don't always need the latest thing.

this will play all of your retro games for free once you softmod it. Way cheaper than a NES mini.

How so? Original comment was pointless, that's all.
Don't really think I went too hard on them... that was already the polite version :wink:

CEX doesn't refurbish let alone clean the items before sale though.

Softmod this system and install RetroArch and have a great retro gaming console on you hands!!! Heat!!!!

also a decent media player with the homebrew channel

I remember when you only had to spend a penny.

Plays backups from hard drive including GC games (legally owned of course)

I have 4 wii's it's a great console but gumtree people gumtree.. these average £15-20 with games! I've had 2 both mint condition with games and accessories granted no warranty but at £15 each what do u want? Worth £20 all day but not cheapest price to be found..

This is a great console for price. I paid £14.99 from game at xmas. Had one back in the day. Best thing you can do:

Mod it, install homebrew channel, buy yourself a hard drive and you can install as many on it to as you wish.

GameCube is 100% backwards compatible, VC games are great...and... this is the best console for light gun games!!!

Amazing price mate. I worked with them for 15 years launching NES - SUPERNES - & GAME BOY. LOL..

Nice to have you back Mr Turkey. Buzz has been having it all his own way lately. I guess the the sheriffs back in town. :stuck_out_tongue:

Not sure they're all boxed the same, mine came with one remote + nunchuck and the TV sensor all in working order.

What do u get with this do u need to buy the controllers or camera ? Ive never had a wii before sorry

I got one from them on the last deal at £15.
Refurb is a joke. It was grubby, had someone's name written on the strap and needed a good clean. After some TLC and bleach to remove the name I can say it has been properly refurbished by me. At least all the bits were present.

Does it need a camera with this ?

these average £15-20 with games! I've had 2 both mint condition with games and accessories granted no warranty but at £15 each what do u want? Worth £20 all day but not cheapest price to be found..

Picked up a black wii from cex a few weeks ago came with a motion plus controller which was nice. Perfect console for my GF who has never gamed in her life

Good fun if you actually play the right games, Mario and them are a right laugh with family members.

Discounted from CeX on a console like the Wii would often mean things like the flaps missing, stickers on it, a few scratches etc. But it should function perfectly.

If you are lucky, they will not have reformatted and it might still have some virtual game purchases on it

I used to have one, hooked up to projector, only ever played house of the dead with a gun.
It. was. Awesome.
now because 2 out of 3 deals are a tv on hukd, ive given in and bought a nice big one, might be time to get a wii again and remember the old times

Got one from MM a few weeks ago, was worried it'd be trash but it's pristine.

im also interested in this source :smile:
great deal op :smiley:

Got one for 16.99 a while back but came filthy. Good clean but works fine. Great for playing GC games too so enjoying the cheap purchase.

Thanks! Went for the one off Music Magpie in the end as it worked out cheaper with the delivery and it's apparently refurbished.

Got one boxed with 2 controllers, 2 nun chucks and 7 games for £30 off eBay delivered

You couldn't pay me take this awful console lmao.

Bought this when it was £16.99, good product but came dirty :smiley:

Games consoles are graded as one of the following:
Boxed - with all essential accessories. First party controller.
Unboxed - with all essential accessories. First party controller.
Discounted - Product in poor condition, with all essential accessories, box not required. Any controller.

Discounted may have wear and tear/scratches I believe.

Anybody have any idea on what the difference between the 'Discounted' and non-discounted Wii on Cex is?
I thought it might have something to do with the quality of the product but the discounted Wii has a higher rating. Wii Console, White (No Game), Discounted is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 36. vs Wii Console, White (No Game), Unboxed is rated 4.2 out of 5 by 18.

Are the Wii consoles on Music Magpie actually refurbished?

Games from £1.89

Welcome back Turkey! :smile:
