Apologies for image quality. Picture was taken on my K800i and without much prep time, as I didn't want to be seen standing on the streets of Belfast taking pictures of an advertising board.

But on my walkthrough Belfast today, I saw 6 of these.

HMV had a Wii Preorder stand, GAME had Wii posters everywhere, and Gamestop had similar. Argos and Currys were also running Wii preorder campaigns.

I go past one of those billboards on the way home from uni ever week ha.

its like spending $20m on somewhere the size of Florida.


what's up with you?

There's about 16 million people in Florida, about 60 million in the UK, ok, we're not some little backwards country, Britain has a very high disposable income, and spends a fair bit of cash on games.
