Hi,

now would be a great opportunity to grab a *brand new* and authentic European version of the popular Wii-console. Supports variety of languages, including English so you don't need to get lost in Japanese menus.

Comes with WiiSports and additional WiiPlay-package with extra remote in an unopened case.

The price is 450,000, and it's cheaper than if you bought these things from Europe and shipped to Korea, provided it's not sold out.



I'm living close to Hongdae so if interested feel free to drop by and check the package yourself.

you can call 010 7125 4330 or send sms.

yea i did some googling and nintendo wii is very region strict, so unless its modded and your going to be downloading the games i would guess it would be hard to find games that would work on that system here in korea

actually the 250 with free shipping was to the US only but if you wanted to buy a premodded system that plays games region free then here is a website for that, it would cost you 550 usd that includes shipping to korea, but the system is new and modded so maybe OP should take this into account and adjust his price

This set comes with a WiiPlay-package, which is 75,000 won alone. The console was bit under 300 euros when I bought it last week from Helsinki.

Anyway, I'm ready to drop the price down to 400,000 won if someone is interested. That's already less than what I paid for it myself.

300 Euros! Sorry to say, but man you got hosed! I would be interested in it, but if you can't play Korean or region free games on it, what's the point of buying it?

That's the normal price of it in Europe. Might be different to us prices though. However as it's European model it has better screen resolution than the American.

Better resolution?

So it's PAL, not NTSC? And worthless here in Korea, because the screens here are NTSC.

But my point is that you need a TV capable of PAL to use a PAL wii (or maybe a computer monitor). Korean TVs are NTSC, like USA TVs.

If the Wii has RGB (Scart) out and your tv has the in, then it's fine for PAL or NTSC. Most new tvs can do RGB in.
