Wii Remotes at BigW for $29.96 Each (Save $34.96). Note: these are not the ones with motionplus built in.
Starts 18 November - Ends 24 November
Available in black, white, pink or blue.
Yeah! Closer to what they should've been selling at in the first place.
Now to wait for any sign of a drop for the nunchuck, which is just $5 away from this wii remote price.
Oh well, a man with 6 Wii remotes can dream.
That's cos they're not just about to release the NunchukPlus ;)
Wtf, you click buy online, and suddenly it's $65. Not really good for those of us nowhere near a Bigw.
because the sale starts on the 18th:)
I wonder if they've sorted out the shipping to Brisbane yet :/
Just so you know, you can almost get two wii remotes (nunchuck included) delivered from an ebayer seller for that price

Replica ones aren't even worth that much.
The fakes like this are junk - steer well clear.
They don't offer anywhere near the accuracy or precision of the official items.
I own a few fakes and genuine wii remotes, both types used extensively.
Concrete conclusion - for $30 a genuine wii remote, don't even bother with the fakes at all. They're more trouble than they're worth for just $10-15 less.
100% agreed!
Do you think Myer would price match the price?
proably not, but maybe jb
I had a few wii games to trade in today at EB so I got them to price match it, then credit from the games. Cost about $10 all up
ordered one online :) $4 shipping to my place which is reasonable.
They're showing up as "Not currently available online", have they run out??
Looks that way. When I checked this morning at about 1am they definitely had black in stock, and total delivery to Melbourne was $4 (with 2 wiimotes in my cart).
Looks like instore-only at this point (or price match elsewhere).
Bugger, I was gonna buy 4…shoulda got in early.
no discount on nunchuck? :( i wanted x2 with 2 wiimotes
BigW in Waverly Garden shopping centre in Mulgrave had run out of the stock in the morning it self. Just checked BigW in ForestHill. Still nothing left. The isle was all cleared. Then went to Kmart in Burwood and the guy was ready to price match with BigW even before we ask any thing :)
They still have few left.
It would be great to be able to buy these in Australia somewhere:

Wii remote with built in motion plus…you can get them on amazon.com for US$30 (White only, for some reason they don't ship the black to Aus). Problem is delivery from Amazon is expensive…$75 for 10 units.
You'd be better off just buying the Wii Remote Plus for $59 on ebay.

Ran out already how crappy…how can it get sold out that quick…unless someone bulk buy before 18th and eBay the lots
If you can go instore somewhere else (DSE, EB, Kmart, etc) and bring the catalog they'll probably price match. I did this at DSE Box Hill (VIC) when the BigW next door to it sold out.
Also, I spoke to the guy at Box Hill BigW, and he said they've already sold out, but more stock is arriving today - so it might be worth trying your luck at your local in a day or 2.
I asked in 5 bigW store..everything sold out!!!. Asked in DSE Epping for price match and the guy said since its sold out in BigW they cannot price match, which didnt make sense at all to me!!
makes perfect sense. they will only match a price on something you can get. as you can no longer get it for that price, they wont match it
That's the condition with all price-matching, the competitor must have stock.
Getting very cheap now :)
