Product condition

This product is in good condition. At NexWave Games, good means:

  • For disc games, the case is still reasonably presentable with signs of use, the manual is included and the disc may have a few small scratches. In some cases the manual may be missing; when this happens, we state it in the product title.
  • For cartridges, the exterior and label are still reasonably presentable with signs of use. Cartridges such as N64 and Game Boy are supplied on their own as standard, unless the title states that the product is complete.
  • For consoles, controllers and accessories, the exterior is still reasonably presentable with signs of use. They never have stains, but may have light scratches. Items in both good and like-new condition always work perfectly.

Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.

Notes: Zichtbare gebruikssporen aan plateau, knoppen en behuizing. Losse turntable; geen game of Wii-afstandsbediening.

Wii DJ Hero Turntable

This DJ Hero turntable controller for Nintendo Wii combines a rotating platter with three coloured buttons and a mixer section. The photograph also shows the slider for transitions between music tracks and the effects dial. Press buttons in rhythm and move the platter for scratch instructions. The game scores your actions. This is not a real record player: it cannot play vinyl or independently mix music.

For the Wii version, place your own Wii Remote inside the mixer and connect its internal plug to the remote's extension port. The remote provides the wireless Wii link and needs working batteries. The original quick-start guide shows how to arrange platter and mixer for left- or right-handed use. Place them on a stable surface and do not force the connection. A separate USB receiver for another console does not replace this Wii setup.

The offer concerns the pictured loose turntable controller with visible wear on platter, buttons and housing. A game and Wii Remote are not included; neither console nor extra instruments are promised. The two DJ Hero games described below are the appropriate uses for this specific controller. We do not pad the list with ordinary Guitar Hero games. The controller follows DJ Hero instructions and provides no general support for other music software or modern DJ applications.

History

DJ Hero arrived in 2009 with a different approach to rhythm games. Where Guitar Hero used frets and strums, this series revolved around scratches, samples and transitions between two tracks. FreeStyleGames developed it for Activision. A dedicated controller made those actions tangible through platter and mixer. The Wii edition housed a Wii Remote, giving the same gameplay concept a different connection from other consoles.

The first DJ Hero presented specially arranged mixes bringing artists and musical styles together. Players followed a note track, learning when to press, scratch or move the slider. DJ Hero 2 developed this in 2010 with an Empire campaign and more freedom during marked passages. Joint performances with two turntables and a singer also gained emphasis. They still required separate controllers and a microphone.

This development explains the accessory's small, specific library. A turntable does not replace a guitar's fret buttons even when games share a publisher and related names. For Wii, two appropriate main games are therefore listed, not an invented five-title series. The historic download store and online functions are not current sales promises. This used controller is described as an input device for existing local content on the correct Wii disc.

Two Compatible Wii DJ Hero Games

DJ Hero blends two songs while you follow the note track. Three coloured buttons handle tracks and samples. In marked sections, hold a button and move the platter back and forth to scratch. The slider switches between musical layers. These are rhythmic tasks in prepared mixes, not free playback of records from your collection. Practise individual actions before building long streaks of correct inputs. Difficulty determines how many controls you must handle together. The Wii edition needs the matching turntable with a connected Wii Remote. A second turntable player needs another complete setup. Any guitar part requires a separate compatible guitar; three platter buttons do not replace five frets. The original extra-mix store and online functions are not promised to work today. This used turntable contains neither the game nor those downloads.

DJ Hero 2 builds on the same turntable controls but offers more freedom with scratches, samples and transitions in marked freestyle passages. In the Empire campaign, work through performances and develop your DJ standing. You still read coloured instructions and divide your hands between platter and mixer. The sequel is a separate game with its own mixes and challenges, not a software update stored in this controller. The publisher also offered standalone software to owners of the first DJ Hero. On Wii, use the Wii turntable setup with a Wii Remote. Joint performances may need a second turntable and a singer's microphone; this single controller is not a complete Party Bundle. The game and additional instruments must be available separately. The focus remains local content you own. Historic online matches, community features and newly purchased mixes are not promised. None of that software or extra equipment is included with this loose used turntable.
