alright, what's a fair price?

I didn't even know Wii had 200 games, so you know more about it than me.

I don't know about Yongsan, but I know down here in Busan you can go to the gaming stores and they have hard drives for sale and will fill them with games for you.

You could also just do it yourself. It's quite easy and surprisingly fast.

Why would that surprise you? They probably have an HD image they just toss onto each one they sell. The whole point of modding it is to steal games, so obviously they have no issues with the legality of it.

Yes they give you a 320gig hard drive loaded with games. I don't know exactly what games come with the package, if there is a standard set, or you are allowed to pick and choose, but I do know they give you like 180 games or something crazy.

Well the guy I usually deal with is located in the second building behind ipark mall, and would be a little difficult to give you directions to him. His prices are always cheaper or equal to the other vendors. You can just find the video game vendors in the ipark mall, but they tend to try and price gouge you, so just make sure you pay around 350-370k for the total set up with two controllers.

I also noticed they have the exact same set up for sale at the Sindorim Technomart (saw an employee demoing a USB loader to some Koreans) in their video game sections, which may mean it's actually quite easy to find this kind of modified set up. ALso, Sindorim technomart is usually pretty comparable price wise to Yongson.

thats insanely cheap. So for 350K, they give you a wii, 2 controllers, 2 nunchucks and a 320gb external hard drive with games on top of that?!?

Im going to assume its a korean wii and the korean version of wii games correct? I heard that if I get a korean wii, i'll have to only get korean version of the games, is that true?

Ok well I just called my guy at Yongson about buying either a modded wii or psp as a graduation gift for my brother in the states.

My guy said about 50 of the games are Korean version (which I assume means Korean language) and the rest are in English. This is only the stock set, and he said you can pick and choose additional games for 5k won each, or 10 for 30k. They have most games, but I imagine it would be pretty easy to just erase the korean games and download any games you really want on your own, or pay a few bucks to have them throw them on the HD also.
