Best Nintendo Wii / Wii Fit Bundle Deals: a Buyers' Guide
Last updated 8th December 2009
We've compared all the bundle deals for the Nintendo Wii console to find the best offers available. For research, we've looked at all the Nintendo Wii bundle deals from Amazon, Argos, ASDA, Comet, Currys, GAME, Gameplay, Gamestation, HMV, John Lewis, LOVEFiLM, CD WOW!, Play.com, Sainsbury's, Tesco, and Very.
We've split the guide into two parts. The first looks at bundle deals for just the Nintendo Wii console. The second part looks at deals that include the Nintendo Wii console and Wii Fit.
The basic Wii console package this Christmas comes with Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, and a free Motionplus attachment. There are still some old console packages featuring just Wii Sports floating around however, so be sure to check what's included before making your purchase.
Nintendo Wii Console
The choice facing those buying Nintendo Wii consoles is huge. We've narrowed the choice down to five different bundle deals, in addition to listing the stand-alone packages on our price comparison pages.
Almost all current Nintendo Wii console bundles come with the Wii Sports Resort package. This package includes Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, and a Motionplus accessory to go with the Wiimote included with each console
For those looking for bundles with one extra game, GAME have a range of bundle deals at the £179.99 price range that offer:
* GAME: Nintendo Wii Console + Wii Sports Resort package + one extra game: £179.99 total
There's a very similar deal over at Amazon, offering a different selection of games:
* Amazon: Nintendo Wii Console + Wii Sports Resort package + one extra game: £179.99 total
For those looking for bundles including two extra games, there's a lot of choice but only a few real bargains. We've picked out the three best deals that offer a combination of quality titles and good value-for-money:
In the third deal listed, from GAME, note that the Wii Play game includes an extra Nintendo Wii controller.
Nintendo Wii Console with Wii Fit Plus
The new version of the Wii Fit game is out (Wii Fit Plus). Several retailers have got bundles that include the game and the balance board, offering some savings over buying the products separately.
The best price we could find for this bundle comes from Play.com:
The Wii Fit Plus has been heavily advertised in the run-up to Christmas, and the bundle here offers a £10 to £30 saving compared to buying these products separately.
This bundle is also available from GAME for the black Nintendo Wii.
As always, we've linked to all the deals we used when compiling this guide in the second column.
While we highly recommend choosing a bundle deal when buying a new console, we do include a standard comparison page for just the basic Nintendo Wii console packages:
