Will a Wii Fit from Spain work in the UK?

Options
Hi

I am off to Spain soon and am thinkng of buying a Wii Fit for use back in the UK. Will it work ok or do I need some kind of adapter?

I am also thinking of buying more than one to flog on. What are the regulations with regard to bringing items such as this back to the uk?

Thanks.

    I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work; Spain and the UK are both region 2 as far as I know, maybe someone else can confirm that the wii uses the same region formats as dvd? I'm not too sure as don't know much about the wii at all.
    With regard to your second point, doing that is technically illegal; breaks customs laws if you then sell stuff on, but you're ok for personal use. You should be able to get away with it but thats your call, and you would have a hard time explaining to customs why you have several brand new wii fits in you case if they stopped you at the airport.
