    I can live with 180, it was the top end of what I expected anyway.

    Edit, 250 Euros.

    Giving serious thought to just importing an american; one even with p&p and import tax would cost less and i'd have it earlier

    No DVD. No CD. No second controller.

    Yet it's actually at a price that could be described as ridiculous.

    Not happy about that at all.

    True, it's just that after the Japanese and US price details it's a little dissapointing. Smilie

    you say 'Wii Sports bundle as default'. Someone at my place said, that there are 2 controller-pairs included. But I think it's only one, isn't it?

    Okay, december 8th... very late. shame!
    the rest: okay!
    I find your lack of faith disturbing!

    Good news, certainly that of the price may consider being patient for even longer and wait to get a UK console- the game pricing is also good when you compare it alongside that of XBOX360 and the price you will have to pay for PS3 games. a great chirstmas is to be had by all- M XMAS

    It's only one controller in the console bundle it seems. The mention of the other controller is a game 'Wii Play' with a load of mini-games designed to teach you the remote control play, it comes with a free controller.
