    Will these work exactly the same in UK?

    And will the packaging be the same as UK or will it have German writing all over it?
  • aparently they are compatible with PAL but a mains adaptor will be needed. Packaging will be german. HTH

    Anyway - I *THINK* I've ordered one.

    Reading german isn't exactly easy, but my GCSE's just came flooding back.

    Bestellung Abschicken, is "Send Order", apparently.
  • €252.91 with Wii sports, delivered, which is about £170. Their power supply is 220-240V same as ours so all you need is a plug adapter.

    genau! - exactly

    I lived in Germany for 13 years and only moved back recently, all my computer/AV and other electrical goods were purchased there. Most of the consoles (PSP/XBox/XBox360) have the option to change the language, I'd be very surprised if nintedo didn't do the same.

    The unit will work flawlessly here, just chop the Two pinned plug off of it to reveal a brown and a blue cable, these get wired in to a UK plug the same way as any other appliance.

    Packaging could be mostly in German but the instruction manual, like the unit itself will be multilingual. Germany has a 2 year minimum warranty on all purchases so looks like a win win situation !
  • Finally Got my Wii today! From GAME Washington, Tyne and Wear.
    LOVE IT!

    What the Wii or the GAME store? :p

    You can easily pick one up on ebay now for very close to the RRP
