    You can just plug it in and play - but to use online features you need wireless broadband. or buy an adapter on ebay for £15

    The sword game is Zelda and it's very good. Best to sign up to amazon's pre order list or try your luck in store to get hold of one.

    hth

    Couldn't see a sign up list ... tried the links on this thread too ..... can see it advertised for £489.99 though:eek: :eek:

    ooops ... must go O/H is here :eek:

    Cheers I have got security on it, sorry to be so dim but is my network password the one I made up when I installed the broadband (hard to believe after the questions I'm asking but I did really install it) can't remember what it is because I get signed in autoatically. :o

    When I click on my network connection it says this wireless network is secrity enabled. This network equires a security key - is the security key the password I set?

    I beleive it probably will be :)

    Did anyone else try to preorder with Send-it.com? I just get a reminder that it's on pre-order but the date of release is not known yet!

    Yes - and three weeks ago I was told that there was no chance of delivery before January - so i cancelled it.

    I've just done that thanks and the sports games look really good. I'm just totally suprised no-one seems to have come on here yet and said how much they are enjoying it. I guess its the aquiring rather than the playing which is important, like someone else said.

    I think many have bought them for resents and its a bit like cheating to have a go before the person its for. It is tempting though.
  • I have one and can confirm it is brilliant. the remote is very sensitive and responds well, although i do think there is a small room for improvement. Wii play and Wii Sports will be enjoyed by any casual gamer of any age

    Wow...

    But the winner was someone who hasn't been active on eBay for almost 3 years and with a feedback score of 1... I would be wary if I were you.

    Regards

    I hope he scams you 'cos you're a profiteer. If you didn't want it or need it, why did you buy it?

    (rhetorical question)

    To make a profit. How very thoughtful of you. So have a very Happy Christmas and may all your gifts be cr*p:p

    P.S. Amazon will have this at £16.99 released before Christmas, so don't pay silly money;)

    Well after another hunt today still no Wii.

    Gamestation said they are not getting more Wii consoles until Jan-Feb 07 the same was said at dixons/currys/pc world.

    Game gave me a url of http://www.game.co.uk/wii which is apparently their"stock level" indicator for customers. There you can enter your e-mail and they will let you know when they have stock online or in store.

    Apart from the above info, i'm still Wii-less like most of us.
    :wave: Smile, you only get one life, LIVE IT.

    https://www.dvdboxoffice.com in Canada apparently have a third party component cable up for pre-order for about £7 delivered.
    Whilst I cannot comment on the cable yet (i've not seen it/used it), the company is generally reliable if a bit slow at times (I used them a lot for DVD's), so may be worth considering if you want to save a tenner and don't mind waiting a few weeks.
