GO to amazon.de £167 for a Wii, with remote, Wii sports as well. Works absoloutley fine - all instructions in English - set Wii to English language. Its all PAL in Europe, so software and hardwore work fine with it. Only issue - the 2 pin plug. Buy an adapter to a three pin - £1.48 from B and Q. It works - its great - it arives at ur door 5 days from order or next day if u wish!! If you know Amazon - the german site navigates just the same. Any problem, cut and paste the german into Google translate for the English meaning. I ordered my Wii on Feb 8 2007, got it Feb 13 2007. Works fine. If you dont mind the slightly unconventional approach...its a an excellent way to get one. Desperate for a Wii?!?!!?!?!?!

A Nintendo representative told me that UK stores were expecting a large shipment of Wii's in mid January. So we should hopefully see more availability within the next week or 2. (About time!)

So after scouring everywhere for one I'm now waiting for the next shipment to arrive. And I refuse to pay over the odds on Ebay, if it wasn't for those people on Ebay selling them I'd have probably had got a Wii in the first place!! :( They probably all hav about 10 Wii's at home waiting to make a tidy profit on each of them!!! Gits!! Anyway, thanks for the advice that you've given on your site, I've registered with HMV to get emailed when they are next available! Hopefully I'll be successful! Hey,
