Have you seen all the people on ebay selling wii play without the remote for like 25 dollars and up? this is insane. theyre taking the remotes and selling them full price and selling this game for more than its actually worth without the remote. sigh..

an example... "remote sold seperately" yea im sure.. 30 bucks for this? HA

It may be a predatory business practice (IMHO), but if idiots consumers are willing to pay for such a package, then more power to them. It's not like the sellers are misleading the buyers about the contents. The auction you linked to clearly states, "NINTENDO WII PLAY GAME ONLY NO REMOTE CONTROL".

Yeah. If I needed a third Remote, I would just buy Wii Play again and sell it to get some of my money back.

Maybe people actually want to play the Wii Play games. I thought the pool game was pretty fun. I really wish that and bowling from Wii Sports were on the same disc.

I have nothing relevant to say, I just like the rhyme and meter of "Wii Play crooks on eBay." What poetry!

Actually on second thought I do have something relevant to say - if you need another Wiimote PM me. I'll buy Wiiplay and sell you the Wiimote for a $5 discount since I already have 4 and I only want the game, so I'll get Wiiplay for a better price than I would from the eBay scam artists.

I suppose if you REALLY want Wii Play, you could buy it for ~$30 on eBay. But why not just buy it retail and sell the extra Wiimote? I think you'd come out better overall that way.

Personally I have 2 Wiimotes right now and am thinking about picking up the Wii Play package to get a third. Wii Play may not be the best game on the console but it's gotta be worth $10, especially considering that I bought Sonic for $50 to get a free TRU $30 gift card, and so far I don't see anything in Sonic that's worth $20!

If you want Wiiplay you can also check EB. Go to EBgames.com - type in to search for Wii Play. It will bring up the $50 bundle - click show backordered items on the bottom of the page and it will show just the game used for $20 and let you check if there are any copies close to you.

Just got this today at Wal-Mart today. Hope I like it when I get to play it soon.
