Wii Classic Controller comes with

Although you can buy 2000 points for £15 , so that's not too bad at £7.50 per n64 game.

R.O.S.S.I · 8 Dec 2006 at 19:34

There aren't any points, it was a big fat LIE!

Why dose that mag lye so much damit. I can send you a pic of the page with the info on if you like. I didn't mean to give false hope.

Got to admit I was looking in the box of the Classic controller for points...doh.

It cost me £15 for the 2000 points card, of which I've blown half on Mario 64. I agree the games do come in slightly more expensive than I would have liked. But I guess the rule of the thumb here is to only got for the stuff you really want to play rather than splurg on everything.

I am tempted to get Bonk's Adventure, Bomberman '93 or Sonic but will hold back.

I've also noticed that on the virtual console , you can buy 1000 points for £6.99. They also sell batches of 3000 points and 5000 points. So £6.99 for an N64 game.

Do they take Switch or purely Mastercard/Visa ?

I bought 2000 in the shop but have used them already

Most games take the Wiimote, Classic or Gamecube controller according to the download page (though what is the funny wheel on the front of the classic).

Whoop

The funny wheel releases 2 clips on the bottom of the controller to allow some sort of add-on. Just push it in.

Took the controller back for a refund today, purely as there were no points available. Also took back a 2nd copy of Wii Play I ended up with, they were sold out of Wii Play so they were happy to get one back

You might be able to play it with a GC controller if you have one, the chart I've seen isn't that detailed.

In Japan, buying a 5000 wii point card gets you a free classic controller

Bah why cant they do that here, I'd buy 5000 points for a controller as well

WatchTower · 9 Dec 2006 at 22:44

So annoying, can import these but it looks like the points are region protected somehow :mad:

Wonder why they are releasing the far inferior NES Wario's Woods, instead of the much better SNES version...

Tis a shame as it is one of my fave games.
