Parents and Casual Gamers beware. If you want to buy a Nintendo Wii for this Christmas period, it might be a good idea to go shopping for it now. I'm trying to find a supplier in the UK that isn't scalping an extra $200 for trying to buy the thing everyone else wants to buy. No luck so far.

My sister mentioned having the same problem the other day—she’s in the UK, & is trying to get one for her daughter for Xmas. They can still be had here in Sweden for the equivelent of £185 If need be I’ll order one here for her…

I want a Wii! We have the Playstation 3. Two video game systems might make my kids the laziest and the dumbest on the block.

We are a game console-free family.

What on earth do you do all day? ;)

The Wii does have a much better selection of kid games. We would buy one if they were available. There are none to be had in our local stores. No Wii for us. *pout*
