    Hmm that's not bad. I buy all my stuff from sendit.com

    http://sendit.com/game/item/6000000003562

    £179.89 - but with 180 ipoints too (which is equal to £9 in gift vouchers) so it's only £170. Of course, you need to accumulate enough ipoints to get the gift voucher.... HMV may be better. Find if they have any partners online, rpoints, ipoints, etc. etc. - you get points for every spend and you can cash them in for gifts or gift vouchers. :thumb: (its approx 5p per point).

    that seems a pretty good deal, tbh with demand this high it's not going to deviate massively. I expect on ebay in january sales prices could well be higher, as demand exceeds supply considerably.

    I think we're getting one between us for christmas, me and my brothers. Hopefully another controller or two :). And zelda, and that sword game too.

    I'm after a Wii. Loving the whole idea of it.

    I quite fancy buying one after seeing all the promotional videos that i have so far and i like what i have seen too ! I like the concept of it and just the other day saw a promo vid in gamestation for Red Steel and it looked fantastic !

    for £180 who can complain ? I love the idea of using it's wireless controller, it should bring a whole new level of entertainment in itself to gaming.

    Was going to get a 360 but with all the current problems around with it that I've heard of and not wanting to hurl myself into getting a ps2 for the first year to let it settle in the Wii is the safest and best bet for me at the moment.

    Bear in mind I brought my xbox with two games and a controller for £130 from the shops not long after it came out, so £180 is still relatively pricey (especially as it's £135 in America). But that's because with the xbox 360 and ps3 being so expensive, they can charge a lot and still be the cheapest.

    I may invest in a 360 next year, and a wii for christmas.

    I quite fancy a wii. They look quite good, although I'm a biased nintendo geek at heart.

    This is still rip-off Britain though ;)

    To that end a 360, possible PS3 price and Wii in comparison, £180 is ok in my opinion.

    I'm bored with the same old crap on playstation anyway so a Wii would make a rather nice change.

    I might not get one for a while though. I've only had my gamecube for a few months, after not having one for over a year, and I'm still obbessed with it. Espically as I can play Legend of Zelda on it. :yippe:
