    Yup got a message on my wii about this too, pretty nice offer!
    But then again they are probably just using it to build up a database of wii owners.. because you give your name and address and serial number of the console..

    It seems be only for Ireland / Britain.
    Miserable shower of games console manufacturers. :mad:

    lol made up the serial. i just realised being the idiot i am, that its a cover for the Remote thingy..not an accual jacket haha
    Good work fella.. Shame the owner of the Wii associated with that serial number won't be able to register their unit, and could face warranty issues, but as long as you get your free Wii jacket, who cares, right? I hope it fits. :(

    Did you put in the numbers in the box thing too?
    calm down

    the serial i entered looks nothing like a Wii serial key
    Why did you even order?

    In fairness, I can't be arsed going downstairs and unplugging my Wii to get to the serial number, writing it down and then coming back up here to enter it in the site... sounds way too much like effort to me.
    |Cookies has the right idea:p

    I got that email too, and also know some who haven't. It's probably just we got in the first batch to be sent and the rest will follow in a few weeks.

    Mine just arrived. Weird clunky feel to them. Lots of grooves on the back to make gripping easier. Not sure if I like the overall bubblyness of them. All 4 are see through. I doubt the wii mote will feel a thing if it inadvertently falls now that its all bubble wrapped. It makes hitting the B button trigger that little bit more difficult too. I'd say I'll give them a few days before I throw them away
