    Do you think I could trade the games in as pre-owned to the value of Mario Galaxy and a controller?

    Right I am getting caught up in hype here - I am NOT buying 4 games I dont want just for a Wii .......
  • Does anybody know if you were to buy a Wii from a Spanish Toys R Us, and you wanted to take it in for a warranty issue (I know you can deal direct with Nintendo) would they take it?

    i was just about to hit buy then double checked on the web site and they state they have none in stock????
  • If you can sell the games for £70 then you could get a controller and Mario Galaxy, check to see what ebay completed Wii games are going for.......easy
  • Well, I think I got one as my card details went through ok but how long does it take for them to send the confirmation E mail? My 3 will be so surprised I hope!!!

    I caved in ....

    I clicked buy and my order was confirmed, just waiting on my confirmation email

    If I sell the games for a decent price I will have paid about £40 over the odds for the bits I want - not tooo bad

    Plus, who knows if my Marshall Ward one will turn up before christmas .....
  • Keeno i asked in Toys R Us about returning a wii to them from Holland and they said i couldn't do it but i didn't ask if it could be returned to them if it was faulty don't know if it will be the same
