I am planning to purchase a nintendo wii U when it releases. since the Wii U support backward compatibility with old nintendo wii games I thought it would be a good idea to buy some. now, I am able to purchase wii games at amazon.co.uk since the games are from the UK.. which Wii U console should I buy?
for example: this is a US wii U game system

I'm assuming that it wont run the games I buy on amazon.co.UK play asia have not yet list a UK version of the console.. is the UK version of the console any different from a pal version bought in malaysia? does that mean in order to play wii games on amazon.co.uk I need a PAL europe version of the WII U?

US = NTSC/US
UK = PAL
hence you only can play PAL region games on a PAL console, doesn't matter which country you bought the PAL games from

anyway... there's already a thread about Wii U, please do use the existing thread instead of opening a new one.

oh thanks.
