We've been getting lots of emails from around Europe with people sending in photos and their impressions of the Wii launch. If you have any of your own, please send them in, especially if you got pictures!

From Germany, Kotakuite, paxil, tells of the Wii goings on in Cologne.

The pictures were taken at the official release party at a Toys 'R' Us store in Cologne. They actually had around 400 units (!) for sale with 100 of them already pre-ordered. They told me they had that many because all other German Toys 'R' Us stores had to give a certain amount of their units to the one in Cologne. To be honest the 'main event' kind of sucked. They had a boring show with some wannabe celebrities ... but who cares. I got a Wii!

I want to know who these "wannabe celebrities" were. Kevin Federline? David Spade? Kathy Griffin? Anyone else care to venture any guesses? Flynn De Marco
