Wii hardware question

[Bigbloke]

Anyone know if the wii remotes are region locked?

I.e. if I buy a japanese remote will it work on a UK console?

Reason I ask is remote in Japan is Y3800 (about £16 at current exchange rate). And I have a friend visiting Japan soon

Cheers,

No they ain't. I wish i'd brought some back when i went New York.

Thanks mate. Looks like he's gonna be having a heavy suitcase coming back!!!!

It's so annoying that everything in UK is sooo expensive
