Why not just get all 4? whistling.gif

Took me 4 years, but I made it...

And before you buy a Wii, a word of advice: Avoid modded Wiis. The sellers will try to push one to you on the grounds that it can run *cough*ahem* games (if he wants to hide it, he will say that it will make it region-free), but the drawbacks:
- Going online is risky: If you go online, the Wii may autoupdate and updating a modded Wii will cause it to "brick" itself (in layman terms, cause the wii to commit suicide). No online? Can, but where's the fun if you cannot play with your buddies online, send messages to your friends, watch the Nintendo channel, surf the net with the Internet Channel, talk to friends on the Wii Speak channel or buy games from the Wii Shop?
- Using ori discs is risky: Popping in a ori disc and making a wrong choice when starting the game may make the Wii update. And as mentioned above, updating a modded Wii using an ori disc is a very bad idea.
- Cannot update from System Menu. Why? See the last two reasons I gave.
- Missing channels that costs $$$ to add back.

So yeah. You're better off with an official Wii. Official Wii sold in Malaysia is NTSC/UC (North America) version, so no worries about language barrier.

Also, since you already own PSP1K, just cross out PSP3K and add a 16GB or 32GB MS Duo to your list. It's worth it. I gave my PSP3K a 16GB MS Duo. I can download and install demos and full games from the PSN store thumbup.gif

If you try to play ahem disc incorrectly, general answer is yes. I cannot confirm it tho, since my Wii is unmodded US set.

Check the Garage Sales section of the Console Couch forum. You can usually source from there.

PSP 1K/2K is not cheap. Shops I go to want RM1000++ for one just because it can be modded to play *ahem*. 3K however, I got one for only around RM450 from Amazon because they were having a promotion for Hannah Montana bundle. Even after VPost it's only around RM550 thumbup.gif

And oh, Wii Motion Plus is a add-on dongle for the Wii remote to improve it's motion detection. Wii remote is the controller for Wii.
