What Are Today’s Wii Deals
Lately Nintendo has been lowering prices on the Wii console, and shipping Wii bundles at lower prices too. They have been working hard to keep their numbers up heading into the end of the year probably; in June Nintendo had their slowest sales ever. However it's true that in this economy, sales are slumping for most game console companies. But these slumping sales mean there are Wii deals out there for buyers who have been holding out for good prices.
The best deals are on the console bundle. Nintendo released its black Wii console by offering either a black or white system bundle including Wii Sports Resort, the Wii MotionPlus, and adding in the original Wii Sports game. Most retailers have this bundle for under $200. Because the console price was lowered, there are also bundles with more components that also have lower prices, like the Wii console and Wii Fit bundle, which can be found for under $300 and includes games and accessories.
Other Wii deals are the controller bundles for the Wii, which are a good way to save on pieces you need to play. The Wii controller comes standard with the console, as well as one nunchuck,but if you want to play a multiplayer game, you need at least one extra controller and nuchuck. Sold separately, these items add up to a suggested retail price of around $60 together. But you can buy a Wii controller and nunchuck combo for under $40 when youbuy both together. an if you buy abundle that includes the MotionPlus, a $20 value, you can get all three pieces in abundle for around $75, which saves you t least $10 or more.
Other Wii sales are on Wii games, which are often discounted in pre-release, but we have also seen big discounts of 25% or more on some popular games such as Boom Blox, LEGO Harry Potter, and more. Some Nintendo games are still near the $49.99 suggested retail price,but at stores like Amazon you can usually find a discount of 5% or more on these deals.
This summer, as Nintendo and retailers try to clear out inventory for the coming holiday season, check around and you might find some of the best Wii console deals on consoles,bundles, accessories and games.
