Bugger. Knew I should have used that store credit with CeX to get a Wii for resale.
There is a bright side for me, though. With everyone going mental over the Wii and iPhone, it's going to make it a piece of piss to get myself a Playstation 3 this November (though I'll probably get mine from America), just in time for Time Crisis 4.
Aaaaahhhh, Time Crisis. Already got the other 5 on my PS2 (yes, 5 - there were 2 spin-offs) and I'll be damned if a little thing like the Atlantic Ocean is going to stop me having the 6th one.
Brain Training, 1001 Mario games and Dragonball Z, or MGS, TC, Final Fantasy, and some proper games.

I did have a cracking idea for a Wii game, though. Not Star Wars - that should have been out on release, FFS. Nope, I'm thinking Highlander. Bear with me. The Wiimote features an integral mic if I'm right, so here's what you do. Swordfighting etc, as you might imagine, but before you can kill another immortal you have to yell into the mic "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!" I have these wonderful mental images of teenagers doing that in their bedroom at 1am and causing complete havoc. :-)
Shouting into the Wiimote - the only way you can look more stupid playing a Wii.
I'll get one eventually, I imagine. Just not yet, and certainly not at £280 from CeX! A 360 is about that price and a decent PS3 only £65 more!

On the bright side
