  • Aldi Sunday Special Buys 11th November: 1GB SD Card (Tevion) for £5.99
  • To convert my amazon.de wii plug to suit our english 3 pin sockets, I picked up a masterplug shaving adaptor plug for a reduced price of £1.00 in B&Q (Glasshoughton).

    But where can you buy a wii in the first place? I'd love to find somewhere selling it for a non rip off price, but as soon as anywhere gets any in, they are gone! :((

    I ordered Wii from Amazon De (Germany) on 5 November and much to my amazement it arrived on 8th. Excellent service and good price - £179.00 - paid with my Nationwide credit card to avoid extra charges for buying in euros.
    So far so good - Unfortunately, set it up same day and used it for an hour. Next day came to switch it on and 'Nothing' - No power to console. Rang Nintendo UK who were very polite etc but bottom line is they are sending me label to return Wii for them to look at and repair/replace. I asked them to post new one out straight away and I would return broken one but no deal.
    Had I been able to buy say from Argos I would have just taken it back ..... but now have no idea how long I will have to wait.
    I have just been unlucky with this console and wouldn't let this put anybody off buying but think Nintendo as a company could haveand should have done better.

    Can anyone tell me if I buy the Wii from Amazon.de will the Sports game language be in German, or is the language user selectable?
    Thanks

    Default language is english and language selector easy to set up. All manuals in English so no problem

    I agree - poor show - I would not accept a repair on an electronic item used for less than 6 months let alone less than a day.

    No, you don't. The only time I've ever used the card slot was to view some photos in the 'photo channel'.
