Nintendo Wii Console, White (Renewed)

It's always interesting reading the reviews before ordering and wondering whether you'll have the five star experience from some reviews or the one star experience seen in others... As for my experience, I was immediately happy with the way everything in the box was packaged, -if you didn't know this was a used Wii console and accessories you'd think it was new. Everything was individually wrapped, clean, and some items such as the remote and nunchuck are definitely brand new. The Wii console itself is squeaky clean, and maybe I just got lucky, but there's like, NO scuffs or scratches to speak of. I mean, I didn't put it under bright light in an interrogation room to get it to barf out all it's dirty secrets, but neither me or my son or my daughter saw anything obvious that would indicate it was a used/refurbished item. Like, nothing. You'd think it was new. The ONLY thing I might ding the overall package on was there was no battery for the remote or any charging station. But the listing didn't say there would be so I'd already ordered more remotes and batteries and a charger. I only mention it because it is the only thing that would keep you from having a complete plug it in and play experience with this package. -But, again, the listing was clear. You get the items in the listing. And I have to be clear as well. What I got was the closest thing to brand new one might expect! In terms of functionality, once plugged in and fired up, everything works exactly like our old Wii console that got ditched years ago when my kids decided the Xbox was the way to go. Discs load and eject properly, and with an HDMI adapter it puts out a very nice screen to our big honkin screen big screen TV. I would definitely recommend the Mayfair HDMI adapter for doing the Wii to HDMI conversion. It works great! It's been about a week, and I'm super pleased with this purchase. Everything looks and works like new, and the best part is my semi-adult kids home for the holidays, laughing and having fun with their favorite old Wii games as if the past ten years never happened, and saying things like, "why the heck did we ever get rid of the Wii for that stupid Xbox years ago? This is awesome!" I might even get a chance to fly around Wuhu island again, one of these days... If they ever go back to college and let me... Five stars for this experience for SURE!

Pros - It runs discs perfect, set up nice, sensor and controller perfect, all slots for controllers and memory cards work, instructions for pairing the wiimote to the device is included, as well as a business card that MAY of had a contact number or email- I honestly forgot since its been about 2 months since I've unboxed it. Ive played both Wii and Gamecube titles from disc and had 0 freezes or anything fishy to effect my gameplay. Honestly the frame rate seemed better than I remember my one from childhood having- maybe its just me. Cons - Im noticing though that the Wii settings in the start menu dont seem to stick? It seems I must switch my screen ratio and controller volume every time I play. It doesnt annoy me to the point where its a real bother in my mind, but worth noting in case thats a deal breaker for you (Its set to standard by default). The controller is defaulted to too high a volume for me, so I simply put a piece of electrical tape over the speaker to muffle it when I['m too lazy or] forget to change volumes and its been fine. I want to also warn people that come across this too to save you a panic attack: my wavebird controller made the system have a hard time trying to... register it? So, I plugged it in and it wasnt working with my game, even though the indicator said my controller was on and responding to my gestures. About 30 seconds later, it would kick on and kept working until I turned it off. This happened for the first week give or take, maybe 10 uses before it started being immediately responsive as soon as the system booted up. Have had zero problems with it since, but I had to mention that so no one here has their heart momentarily sink while they have thousand year door, galaxy, and twlight princess all ready to go lol Ive kept it running for a period of 4 days consecutively, use and abuse it, and it doesnt even get warm sometimes or hum. It's so so pindrop quiet which I love. Ill just wrap it up and say, this was the best priced system I could find with the basics to get you going. Im totally happy with it, and would recommend buying from this vendor.

Where do I start because I swear don’t know where to start!!!! EVERTHING about this system was GARBAGE I knew something was gonna be wrong when I seen how the box was taped smh! I open the box the system was not even secured AT ALL with no foam no bubble wrap NO NOTHING just being rattled around in the box as it’s being shipped, so as I’m taking the system out the box I see that it’s a panel missing from the top of the system second I see that the little door that hold the Sim card is broken off so I still continue to take it out the box set it up to see if it work and just as I thought the system doesn’t work (Rejecting the game) just making a weird noise YUP BROKEN Yes I Know that this was a refurbished or renewed console But I never thought that it would be complete GARBAGE I don’t recommend noone to go through third-party or order from THIS SITE It’s a waste of your time and a waste of your money This is my first and last time ever Ordering from this company I was forced to give them a star but I give 0 stars “DealTavern USA” IS BAD BUSINESS..

I had an older Wii, years ago, that would play the game cube games. My youngest son continued to force the game into the console instead of being patient and allowing it to pull the disc in itself ultimately destroying the load mechanism on the console. When it was replaced I found the new Wii did not accept game cube games, and my boys were really sad. I ordered this console from Voomwa and could not be more satisfied. I ordered this for its ability to play game cube games. The reason I bought it from this sellr is: I was reading the reviews and came across a customer asking if this console would play game cube games, and the statement given by this business selling them stated, if the console does not play game cube then you can send it back within ninety days, and I'll replace it. Well, there is no question in my mind that statement is true. When I bought mine the console came on time, with everything to hook it up, and worked beautifully. To my surprise it came with a Wii remote. The Wii remote glitched all over the place, and I tried to lay it down on a flat surface, reboot it, reset it, you know what I'm talking about if you own one. I really didn’t care about the remote not working, I didn’t buy it for the remote. The company emailed me, like most sellers do, inquiring about my purchase. I told them I was happy and mentioned the remote didn’t work, but I did not care, since I didn’t buy it for the remote. Well, a couple days later I had a brand new Wii remote in the mail box. I would without a doubt do business with this seller again.

Missing a nunchuck, don't care about the missing sleeve or strap for the remote. (Foreshadowing myself accidentally throwing the remote into my tv), but the nunchuck? Come on man the Wii remote looks lonely without the nunchuck. Also I don't know if they replaced the disc drive, because it dosen't sound like a normal Wii disk drive. It reads discs well, but I wouldn't be surprised if later down the line I have to replace the disc drive which isn't hard, I've replaced one before it's not hard to replace. I will have to say either the refurbished teams killed it with renewing or the previous person who owned this Wii in particular took good care or barely played it at all. Still a little sad about the nunchuck, but thank goodness they are cheap to get.

The original Wii (maybe 15 years) started out not being able to read the discs at times and removing the disc and putting it in seemed to resolve the issue. Cleaning the disc seemed to help, but over time some discs would no longer work, and finally none. After swapping the SD and older memory, we were able to pick up where we left off. The one mistake I made was not swapping the SD memory before testing any games. One of our favorite games we have played for years, would not show the progression. I had to delete the newly created profile and recover from my original SD. Now all is well and we are able to enjoy the games we've played for many years.

I remember loving the Wii, I had so many nostalgic memories that were unlocked the moment this system booted up. I was really worried ordering this, I have never gotten a refurbished or renewed game console before, and with the age of wii technology I was really expecting it to be a dud. I was so wrong. This thing works like new. You have to order a hdmi adapter for the wii unless you are hooking it up to a tv that still has AV cable connections, but that is not an issue. For the price, and the quality of this renewed console, I would HIGHLY recommend buying this if you are looking for a wii. The best part is, even if you are worried about the console not working, the customer service is quick and helpful. The wii remote that came with my wii had a busted IR sensor. I messaged the seller, and within 10 minutes they said that they would send me a replacement. 10/10 Would recommend.

Just what I expected. Up and running in a few minutes.

Excelente!!

En la imagen venía con un strap para el control y la base para Wii, pero en el paquete no llegó eso. El lector de discos a veces falla, se puede solucionar liberando la Wii y jugando con tarjeta SD, pero si no sabes modelarla o tienes miedo, te va a costar un poco hacerlo
