    Question Wii questions....your help required please....

    I recently had to turn to ebay in order to buy my Wii - which I have been playing on for nearly 2 weeks now - and have a question about accessories.

    I bought my Wii from Germany and was wondering if I would be able to buy a new UK adapter for it? Would doing this mean that the Wii would still work ok, or does it run off different voltage to Germany?

    Also, I am looking for a good value charge station that will hold 2 Wii remotes and Nunchucks for a decent price (and free delivery in UK would be good too) - just wondering if anyone knows of any good deals flying about.

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    Truss.

    The UK adaptor should work, but I personally dont think its worthy of spending extra money on, when a simlple plug adaptor does the trick with ease. Germany and the UK run off pretty much the same voltage, so no worries there.

    ^^ as above

    Pretty much the same electricity as here, so you just need a 2pin-3pin adapter - or just force the 2pin in a UK socket if your feeling cheap (not reccomended tho!)

    It will work fine - my Swiss DS with a 2 pin charger works just fine in the UK by using a 2-3pin adapter

    As for charging stations I havn't heard of any decent ones yet..but 4x rechargable batteries + a charger can be had for less than £10 at tesco..better option imo

    Mac Pro, 2x Quad core 2.8ghz Xeon, 512mb 8800GT, 4gb DDR2 FB-Dimm
    Macbook, 1.8ghz Core Duo, 2GB Ram, Superdrive
    iPhone 2G 2.0.1
    "Is it a coincidence that an anagram of gordon brown is "born do wrong" ?, I rest my case.
