    WTF!? They still give a free copy of it in Europe and the USA with every Wii, right? Then what do people do with these games, use them as frisbees? :S

    Kids destroy them probably, I never understood how you could sell a bundled game... I guess it's down to carelessness.

    Thing is in japan the wii is vastly cheaper than both the us & the uk so they dont charge you for the wii sports they give you the choice of weither you want it or not.

    YOU KNOW WHAT THE FUNNY THING IS?

    I lost my copy. :banghead::banghead::banghead:

    I just have to find someone willing to give me theirs.. no use in paying $30 for an eBay copy.

    The people who buy them are the same people who lost, broke, or scratched their discs. There's no other way to replace it (or so they think) so they get on ebay and have a bidding war against each other. I've seen them go for over $40 before.

    I called Nintendo Customer Service and posed the question "I scratched my copy of Wii Sports, how much for a replacement?" to which they replied "$22 including shipping" I thanked them for their time and hung up. Just goes to show that most people put zero thought into their actions.

    The main reason, I think, is because places like Gamestop often sell used Wii's without Wii Sports (who the hell knows why).

    WTF!? look how many bids each one of those is getting! wow...


    That's an awesome shirt Henners. But I'm pretty sure I could beat you in boxing. If I can beat my little sister, I can beat you. :110:


    If you look closely you can also see Hello Kitty on the external LCD. :lol:
    The man likes pink and things that are extremely cute. :nod:

    Funny thing is that I remember looking on ebay a few months ago and only seeing them go for $10-20. Part of it seems to be the christmas rush, part of it seems to be people that never got it for whatever reason.

    Either way, Persona 3: Here I come!
