Classic Controller: Ã,£12.99
Wii RC: Ã,£24.99
Nunchuck: Ã,£12.99

Ã,£51 for the complete set, or Ã,£38 for the rc+nc.

For comparison - Offical 360 controller: Ã,£29.99

That confirmed?  I heard Ã,£10, Ã,£30 and Ã,£15 or thereabouts, which to be honest made me sh*t my pants as Ive got to buy (or persuade my mates to somehow procure) 3 more wiimotes  :shock:

Thats off play.com.

Id wait for third party ones, they only for mates/other people.

How many multiplayer games are going to need the nunchuck? Depends on what games you like and how many friends you have, but Im planning on two "full" sets plus two additional Wiimotes. For the tech in the controller it seems a perfectly sensible price to me, and the classic controller is pretty well priced to my mind.
It's all fun and games until a 200' robot dinosaur shows up and trashes Neo-Tokyo... Again.

Zelda has multiplayer, metroid, Any other FPS, there seems to be a lot of Non fps as well that need it, But I am getting to see what the plan is from nintendo, you got to have your classic controlers around flor classic games, your wii remote, nun chucks.....
You will end up with a lot lying around.
All very well priced but you will be buying a lot of them.

One thing though - we have the wii controller at a decent price and it has a mic, vibration and a giro. The PS3 will have all but vibration and just spring loaded buttons and an interface button, whats the betting it will be Ã,£39.99 and everyone will ask why they have to cost more.

...Because you are buying potential, man!

FuMaN

By the way, if i pre-order a Wii, will they take payment immediately or on arrival of goods?

Deaths Head

Play.com only takes payment when your order is processed, ie they have stock and are ready to ship.

Highstreet stores ask for a deposit, mine was Ã,£20 from Gamestation.
