How do I Get Hold of a Wii?
- 1). Choose the Wii console you are interested in purchasing. As of August 2010, two Wii bundles are available at retailers. Both the white and black Wii console bundles include the console and necessary accessories, a remote and nunchuk, Wii Motion Plus accessory, "Wii Sports" and "Wii Sports Resort." Both bundles have an MSRP of $199. Additionally, used Wii consoles can be obtained through specific retailers for variable pricing.
- 2). Decide what type of retailer you would like to utilize when purchasing a Wii console. Online retailers like Amazon and eBay offer both used and new Wii consoles, although eBay is an auction site and will require you to bid on a console. Store retailers such as Gamestop and Best Buy offer Wii console bundles, with Gamestop also offering used consoles. In addition to store locations, Gamestop and Best Buy also provide websites to order items and check for in-store availability.
- 3). Visit the retailer and purchase your Wii console. Some retailers, such as Best Buy, will offer product replacement plans and extra warranties for additional cost that will extend the Wii console's warranty. Online retailers like Amazon and eBay will require you to create an account for the website and use an applicable payment source, such as a major credit card or PayPal.
