I know we can play our Canadian dvd's here. So presumably that should mean it could play NSTC I guess.

I have no problem waiting for games. We'll just buy a bunch up front and have some more sent over when the next batch of relatives come. Or, as suggested maybe order from abroad.

Might give it a try.

comet555, if your Wii is old enough, you can pay about A$50 and get a WiiKey chip fitted, then you can play whatever games you want, either purchased originals or "for personal use only backed-up games" :D

check out the serial number, if it is LAH1015xxx or earlier, its old enough

Re: Wii
 

We don't have one yet, so I'm guessing a brand new one can't be fitted with the chip.

We just wanted to have our next visitor bring one over for us. But if it's not going to work then we'll scrap that plan.

a mate of mine bought his from Big W last week and that Wii was old enough to be chipped cheaply. He paid A$348.

Re: Wii
 

Thanks for the tip, I'll watch out for that then.

Not sure if i'm understanding this right so thought i'd check :o

If i buy my girls for xmas a wii in the UK, when we move to perth in jan, will it still work and will oz games work in it too??

Trying to find 'small' portable toys for pressies ;)

Re: Wii
 

Yes, a UK wii will work in OZ. You can buy new games over here and they will work on the UK console. Also UK games will play on an OZ wii, my son takes his games to his friends house.

Our son got a Wii last Christmas, nearly drove me insane hunting for one. He now buys games no problem here for it. Console is quite small so my son brought it in his hand luggage. Alongside games and his DS!!

Wii, and DS are good as can take them as hand luggage easy.

Re: Wii
 

Thanks for that Gems, we too will be bringing ds's over - what did people do before these things :rofl:

How are you settling in, good i hope? Have the kids settled in ok too?
