just like my title say ; I buy this mainly to get a extra controller . the controller by itself average to be 49.99 just about everywhere . I get this for a nifty deal during black Friday . the game be ok , not my cup of tea . I be more a hardcore\/sports gamer . I also have a xbox 360\/ps3 , but I do enjoy play a lot of Wii title , mainly Mario . however , when my nephews\/nieces\/kids be over they have have a blast with this game . I have have fun with they play as I do not even realize time have fly by . I recently -lrb- date from this post -rrb- , buy the Nintendo Red Wii Limited Edition and I do not have any extra controller . I do not want to play New Super Mario alone , and think I would get this combo pack . you literally get the game for free always on these combo pack , so I think what the heck why not . I do love the fact it do come with the newer Wii Remote Plus . it do come with battery , and the jacket . all you have to do be sync it and you good to go .
