Yeah of course, but its got 4 scart sockets (2 unused) and an HDMI so Id rather have them all plugged in as its wall mounted. You have to tilt it back to put leads in and readjust it back.

I know it's a pain unplugging etc. Just thought I'd mention it in case it hadn't crossed your mind. Sometimes one can't see the wood for trees and miss the glaringly obvious.:D

Hi - I ordered one from Argos at 7.10am this morning and got an email at 7.24am... Hope this helps.

Also could anyone help me! Now I have bought this and I have neve played on one before nor do I know anyone who has one... I don't know if we need anything else...!!!?? It has been bought for kids aged 5 and 9.. do we need anything else to go with it and can anyone recommend games for the 5 year old (just 5).

Please !!!!! many thanks all

I ordered an Argos one for a friend and they have just let me know they didnt want it - cheers!

Anyway, I didnt get a confirmation email. I have just rung them up and the order went through fine, but iI have now cancelled it

So if you dont have a confirmation email - hang on in there!

Right, just need a trip to Gamestation to return my other Bundle - then start the hunt for Play and Galaxy!

You have everything you need to get going, I think a 5 yeard old would love Big Brain Academy (included) MJy 6 yr old does. Other than that any Mario title is always a winner

For a good two player experience an extra Wiimote and Nunchuk about £45 should be enough, get an extra Wiimote first about £30.

My fella is going to want DVI or HDMI leads .... more expense!

Is it worth it with the cartoony graphics of the Wii?

if you have a big screen, it is worth getting a component cable for the wii.

Some games like resident evil and mario galaxy look amazing with a component cable but very mediocre with the included composite cable.

it's only £15 for a nintendo component cable so i'd say go for that. all the new game releases support component cable so will look much better on a large screen.

If you have a small tv, i'd say there's no point at all..

I managed to speak to a web advisor for Argos and she told me that the emails get sent in order of delivery date and she also confirm that you get a £10 gift voucher sent separately as the order is over £100, I will believe when I see it! I will be sending back the wii I got from Shopto.com and they have agreed to refund the shipping cost, gave me a warm fuzzy feeling and restored my faith in humanity along with posts I have seen on this forum.
