    Unbox it, plug in sensor, plug in console, plug into TV, turn on. 2-3 minutes. Very easy.

    Even I managed it , and in that kinda time frame aswell .

    The thing that amazed me most was , the following morning while all were still in bed I did the blokey thing and went through the menus ," oh look internet , well I won't bother with that as it will take ages , lets have a look , type in the code and we are connected " , it was that quick and easy .

    unless you have the hydro accelerator turbine youll need to warm the particle generator with the hand crank which will take a good 15 minutes.

    After that there is nothing left to do but wind the rubber bands in the remotes, feed the hampster powered drive unit in the disk drive (remembering to connect the contact wheel to the drive belt and the hampster safety device), prime the accelerometer hyper sensor, attach the proton protector and use a vigintiunus adaptor to connect it to your cathode ray projection device (making sure to select the correct hertz frequency rating!)

    After that just hit the AV button and its all go!

    Actually you just plug in a few bits, put the sensor bar on top of the telly, connect it to said telly with a scart cable, turn it on, put the telly on the "AV" channel and away you go.

    took me about 3 minutes tops.

    the sensor can take a little bit of playing around to get it absolutely perfect so its not quite as easy as say, a ps2 where you just feck the scart and plug in and away you go. but considering the unpacking, putting in batteries, calibrating etc, should take 10-15 minutes, easy-peasy. 3 minutes if your in a brutal rush!

    Are the PS3 and Xbox360 difficult to setup? :confused:

    I've set up a lot of consoles/computers in my time and usually it's not much work than attach to TV and plug into power outlet, ta-da. I don't think I needed to even look at the instructions when setting up the Wii initially.
