I am thinking about buying DH a Wii for his birthday, that we can all then play with . Is there anywhere that has them for less than 180 quid? Also I will get an extra remote but is there anything else that I should get straight away? TIA

Oh Mutt, sorry, I didn't see that before!

They are mostly ad reviews for the non-Nintendo docking stations, but presumably your one is OK?

Okay, taking Mutt's word for the docking station , I am thinking that the cheapest combination would be the Wii Play with remote plus the docking station from Argos at 44.96 and the Wii at 159.99 from Shopto.net (thank you TMB!), which would total 204.95. What do you think?

Had no problem with docking station for charging. DH got himself Wii for his birthday (with my blessing). Anyone know where we might be able to find Wii Fit that actually has it in stock?

Yes, I think I'll stick with the Argos one as those reviews don't look good.

Well I bought the docking station from Argos today but I'm a little concerned as it is made by Quickshot not Gamexpert like Mutt's one. DH's birthday is on Sunday so I guess we'll see if it works then!
