So my pops been asking me to find a good deal on one, not sure if I should go new or used. I figured I could always check ebay, but not sure about buying that on ebay. I also see there are bundles available. I am totally out of the gaming market and don't know anything about the stuff anymore. We have a modded Xbox, but it never sees use.
What are the basic accessories I should look at getting also?
Thanks

Basic accessories an extra wii-mote and nunchuck. Maybe the recharchable battery pack and charger. Wife says the sports pack is a pretty popular seller at TRU.

I got mine from Ebay. You'll want 2 wii-motes & nunchucks. Package deals on a Wii console with 2 wii-motes & nunchucks and games can be found on Ebay.
Don't worry about buying anything from Ebay, just make sure you buy from a solid seller that has good feedback with numerous transactions.

you could also go to your local game stop and purchase one there they dont have bundles but they can help you decide what you need.

You're all forgetting to add the "if you can FIND one" part...

It's always been like with videos at my house. Used for a party, then sits for months.
I found tons of Wii deals on Craigslist.
Most people are selling them on there stating they need the cash to pay bills!
