Best Wii deal this season?

[r1lissa]

The deal for the $50 gift card at WalMart only applied to the black or white Wii at our store. Red Wii bundle was not included.

They must be doing it different from store to store because my sister just picked up a red Wii at Walmart in Katy, TX yesterday and got the deal. I wanted black, so I didn't even try for the red at my Walmart.

We've decided to buy our kids (DS10 & DD7) a Wii for Christmas this year. I've been trying to figure out exactly what to buy and where the best deal is. It looks (right now) like the $199 Red Wii bundle at Target is the best. I saw their Black Friday ad today and they don't even have a Wii deal in there... so, I'm guessing this week's deal is the best they'll offer.

Should I go out and buy it... any idea if it can be returned if I find a better deal before Xmas?

What do I need besides the basic system? Extra controllers? Charging station? What are some of the best games?

Any and all advice is appreciated!

Thank you!

Thank you for posting this. I went to Wal-Mart last night and got the black one with the $50 gift card and tonight I'm going to Target to return the black one I got there with the $20 off.

Are there any stipulations to using the gift card? I was planning on buying the Wii and then using the gift card to purchase an additional game. Is the card inside the Wii box or can I use it as soon as I purchase the Wii?

It is just a regular giftcard, they activate it at the register.

When I went to purchase mine, the cashier actually asked if I wanted the Wii rung up separately so I could use the gift card to pay for the rest of my purchases.

Me too, I thought it was great there weren't any restrictions.

Does the Wii come with one or two games?

Red = Sports & Mario
White = Sports and a fitness game (i think?)
Black = sports and another resort sports game

So, now that I have my Wii and balance board for a great price, I'm looking for an extra remote. Where's the best deal?

I need remotes too. I went ahead and bought them just in case, but I'd really like to get a deal and return these.

Is the Walmart Deal that they are offering tonight a good buy?

I bought my Wii last week at Wal-Mart and got the $50 gift card. I'm thinking I need to return it and re-purchase it this weekend with the $75 gift card. I've already used some of the $50 gift card, will they just refund me the price of the Wii minus the gift card?

I just called my local Wal-Mart and the sale for the $75 gift card doesn't start until 9:00.

When I bought mine and got the $50 gift card, they told me if I returned the wii.........I had to return the gift card too........or $50.

Was just at my local WM picking up something shipped Site to Store. I was in the video game area and didn't notice a lot of people. Driving home I heard the ad for $75 GC with Wii purchase ($199). So I would guess that WM has plenty Wiis in stock and it made we wish we didn't already have one, well sort of.

Just found out it starts at 9 p.m. I thought it was 9 a.m. Explains why I didn't see many people in the video gaming dept.

BestBuy, $169.99

On Wednesday night I bought a red wii at Fred Meyer's for $199. They had a coupon for a free wiimote plus and an electronic purchase coupon for $30 off a $150 purchase. So for $183 after tax I got a red wii with 2 games and 2 wii motes. Pretty happy with it. Now need another numchuck thingy so each kids has one, lol.
