just for clarification, if one buys a Wii in HK, its going to be a US Wii and will only play US Wii games?

I.e. they can't take it back to the UK and buy UK Wii games for it?

ok- I'm not the techy one, and we haven't bought our Wii yet (holding out for a slightly larger apartment- all that waving of the controller makes me nervous) but...
my brother spent 4 years in Japan, bought a Wii there (he speaks/ reads Japanese, so just bought the Japanese version) and brought it to the US this spring when he moved home. It worked fine. No problems at all. Except when we borrowed it, and realized its all in Japanese...
sigh- to be multilingual would be so nice : )

good luck

I'm not sure how you are reading it, but it's quite clear:
