Player1 in Maynooth are doing a deal for Wii U Basic + NSMBWU + Smash Bros for €255. I've put money down on it last weekend.

thats a great deal seeing as smash will likely cost at least 50 - 55

machiavellianme

Any deals going on smash for wii u?
I want the gamecube adapter version and it seems to be €69.99 on Smyths and £51.09 (€67) on Amazon.co.uk. Has anywhere got it cheaper?
Will probably opt for Smyths to have it on launch but has anyone used their delivery (ie will I have it on launch day or is it better to collect?)

This is a decent deal but I don't want SSB http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nintendo-Basic-Pack-Super-Smash/dp/B00P68FXY4/ref=sr_1_16?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1416866283&sr=1-16

There's another one for an extra tenner with MK8, Super Mario 3D World and Wii Party U (so extra Wiimote). That seems like excellent value

Picked that up, not too bothered that it's not 2.0, my kid won't know the difference, and there's a couple of figures coming up at 5:30.

Also threw Nintendo Land, Rayman Legends and New Super Mario Bros U into the basket.

I had the Pro Controller in too but removed it, do I need one ?

It seems to be the primary second controller for the console, although if you have Wii Remotes and Nunchucks then those should do in a lot of cases.

ThisRegard

Yeah, already got 2 Wii remotes and 1 nunchuck so sounds like I'm sorted for now anyway.

there doesn't seem to be any great deals on the wii u premium yet.. Anyone know if there's likely to be anything later in the week? Hoping to get a new one for €240 or less

Nice one, been waiting a while for something besides 'ringtones' or 'wallpapers' since the playing cards to order something. Nice box too.

2150 stars left now.

Hoping for a Smash Bros Soundtrack soon, the Kirby one was great.

Look for the homemade soundtracks to Kirby's Dreamland, Super Mario World and Super Mario Land by a guy called XOC.
They are incredible, a google should reveal a few sources.

The Smash Bros soundtrack is unlikely to make it to the Stars catalogue given that it's the incentive / reward for buying both the 3DS and WiiU versions.

Infinity 2.0 down to £39.99 on amazon, which is grand except that it was in the Lightning Deals on Monday, so it's probably going to be back at some point....
Injustice is down to £8.50 and is a solid fighter with fun DC trimmings.
Arkham Origins is £9.99. Only worth it on WiiU if that's your sole console. The XBox, 3DS and PS3 versions were in lightning deals earlier in the week though...

And for a change of pace, the Lego Spiderman SpiderCycle Chase (with Venom, Nick Fury and Nick's flying car which I'm going to call Noleen) is £16.99. It's around €22 in Tesco at the moment, but Smyths had it as low as €17.99 at one point.... it's still a good price though.

This bundle is now been released on December 5th, it's £199.99. I've just pre-ordered it:)

cherryghost

Aside from the crummy internal storage, its pretty stellar value!

martineatworld

That is probably the best value bundle I've seen for the Wii U.

People who haven't jumped on the bandwagon yet... GO GO GO!
