In what could prove to be a stroke of genius, Nintendo have announced that they are to bundle a spare Wii Remote in copies of the Nd Cube-developed multiplayer-fest Wii Party.

Most UK retailers are currently taking pre-orders for the bundle at around �40, though that price could well decrease closer to the game's release. Wii Play launched alongside the console with a free Wii Remote bundled, and that move saw the game become one of the best-selling titles not to be packed with a console of all time.

Wii Party releases in Europe on October 8th. Does the prospect of a free Wii Remote sway it for you? Let us know below...
