American wii points

mbarosin · 2008-01-03 02:43:52

Anyone know if wii points bought in the States will work fine on our consoles here. I see no reason why they shouldn't but i know ninty europe would hate to allow us cheaper games

Wii points are region specific. Pity really, cheaper in Japan.

I think we need a European console manufacturer...then maybe we'd get games quicker and extras cheaper.

Wow, that table really shows how much we get screwed with those wii points. And there's none of the shipping/packaging costs that account for some of the mark-up on normal games.
