They are selling though! Every shop I go into has a huuugggggge waiting list.


Market research or are you planning on buying one?
A Wii and a GPS fro Xmas... Wenchy is raking it in...  whistle:

MILFH is buying the GPS
Mother Wench is buying the new sofa
Wenchy is buying the Wii for which she has saved and is probably not going to end up purchasing.

As for Hair restorer. Get LL to paint a lot of small rabbits on your pate ~ from a distance they'll look like hares.

Thank-you off to take a look!

We saw loads of Wii's in Toys R Us in Times Square, the Brits were stocking up on them, half the price what you'd pay over here..

Of course they realise that UK bought games will not work on it.

They won't get that far because the US TV adaptor won't let them see the message. ::)

They've probably also figured out it will be cheaper to get the games from America as well. Plus I don't think it will be that long before some enterprising soul works out how to 'chip' them so they can play disks from any region.

Just out of interest Wenchy once you have bought him it is he going to have to wait until you have finished playing on it before he can have a go?  whistle:
