For 7,000 pounds ($1,800 USD) from "Radwan Al-Ogail" (import specialty shops). He's too rich to care about the price. I played Fight Night and was amazed at how realistic the graphics looked...too bad he wasn't running them on an HDTV.

I guess what's so special about this was that I was "officially" the fourth person to play this thing in Egypt. He told me that the clerks at the shop congratulated him for being "the first person in Egypt to buy one" (no wonder why).

Now if only I can be the first person to import a Wii.:hmm:

I smells bullshit.

Also, since when was £7000 equal to $1800?

Dollars, not Euros.

Okay, so I don't really think it equals EXACTLY 1,800, but it's pretty close.

Egyptian pounds.

Maybe if he'd made that clear in the first place, seing as this is a european forum, and punds is english currency.

Yeah, but that would be like a Maltese person saying pounds on here instead of putting LM (they say pounds)....causing us to go "Fuck, that was cheap you fucking liar"
(Though games and such are a rip-off there, like quite a few other places, it costs them 30 pounds for a game.;):heh: see what i did there? :heh:

1 LM = 1.56 GBP
1 GBP= 1.96 USD *coughweakarsescough*

I can't believe Malta are gonna go to the, much weaker than LM, Euro:nono:

the wii price,

That wasn't a joke.

That was another joke. FFS, I'm an Arabian. The picture I posted was a redhead posing with Miyamoto.

I don't care if you don't believe me, but I played it.

The fact he said it was bought in Egypt, didn't use the £ sign and the fact that 7000gbp isn't $1,800 may have been a clue.

You say:

He's too rich to care about the price

But then you say:

...too bad he wasn't running them on an HDTV.

Something doesn't make sense there...

Did this even need a thread? Theres a PS3 thread, you just had to post in there saying you played it, yet you extended it to a 'ITS TOO EXPENSIVE HERE, SYMPATHY PL0X?' thread.

If he can afford the ridiculous import price and as you put it ;

He's too rich to care about the price.

Surely if he's that rich he'd have a HDTV..

But he doesn't have one. He has a 42" regular TV. It's not even a flat screen or a plasma. ::shrug:
