    If your not afraid of a bit of technology, might I suggest this:

    Look on adverts.ie / donedeal.ie for a second hand HACKED/MODIFIED Wii
    ( or if you can modify it yourself, just get an older Wii (the firmware needs to be 4.3 or below I think ) gbatemp.com has all the info to do it, step by step, it's quite simple (IF you know what your at )

    I've modded plenty of them for friends / family before

    It allows you to download, and play games directly from a portable hard drive... (Costs about €40 for one)

    Serious savings to be had considering you don't need to buy a game ever again...


    Just a thought :p

    Keep meaning to do that to my own one :D


    Regarding Playstation MOVE, it's good, but it doesn't have the same number of kids games etc. She'll like it no doubt, but she'll still want a Wii. Kielo's solution would be best. As each game for the move is going to cost 50quid. You can pick up a second hand Wii for about 100quid!

    What's the price of Playstation 3, I'm seeing 250euro.
    Thought they would be cheaper at this stage
