Instructions
Some points to note:
- The manual for the German Wii Fit Balance Board is multi-lingual and there is an English section
- The Wii Fit software (on the supplied disc) will use the default language set on your UK Wii console, so if it's set for English the software will play in English
- The main Wii Fit manual is in German, BUT you can download an English language version in Adobe Acrobat Reader PDF format here:
http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/gameslist/manuals/Wii_Wii_Fit.pdf
- The Balance Board only needs AA batteries, so there is no need for any kind of mains adaptor
- As we're in the EU, the Wii Fit package will be covered by the European Warranty, so Nintendo in the UK will honour that if, for example, you have a problem with the Wii Balance Board
- There is no import duty to pay due to the UK, France and Germany being in the EU

The ordering process:
Words in single quotes ' ' are German, with the English equivalent in brackets ( )
Click on this link: Wii Fit mit Balance Board
You are now on the Wii fit page - the price will be EUR 89.99 (about £71 - check xe.com for current exchange rates) and there will be some orange ratings stars under the image of the package
- Double check that the price is EUR 89.99
- Click on the yellow box that says 'kaufen' (buy)
- The next screen shows what you have in your cart and the price - check the quantity and price, then click on the greenish button in the lower right corner that says 'Zur Kasse' (Checkout)
- You'll next see the registration screen - if you intend to place a few orders with buecher.de then it's worth registering your details so you don't have to re-enter them every time, but seeing as all you probably want to do in this case is to place one order for a Wii Fit it's not worth doing, so ensure that you click on the button at the bottom left marked as 'Ich möchte bestellen, ohne meine Daten zu speichern' (I'd like to order without having to store my data) then click on 'Weiter' (Next)
- Now you need to enter your address, etc - it's pretty self explanatory, but let's go through it anyway. Here is how it should look (an asterisk '*' indicates a field that MUST be filled in):
Bestellung als: Privatkunde
Anrede:* Select 'Herr' (Mr) or 'Frau' (Mrs)
Titel: Leave this blank
Vorname:* Your first name
Nachname:* Your surname
Straße / Hausnummer:* Your house name or street name and number - if you only have a house name, put the house name in the larger yellow field and the street name in the smaller white field)
PLZ/Ort:* Your post code (must NOT contain any spaces!) in the first field, and your village/town/city in the second field
Land:* Grossbritannien (Great Britain in case you were wondering)
E-Mail:* Your email address
Telefon: Your telephone number - optional but useful to add in case the store or courier needs to contact you
Geburtsdatum:* Your date of birth, entered in the format day (xx), month (xx), year (xxxx)
In the top right area, where it says 'Ihre Lieferadresse' (Your shipping address) make sure that the button to the left of 'Rechnungsadresse als Lieferadresse übernehmen' (Your Billing Address is the same as your Delivery Address) has been pressed (as it is by default)
Now click on 'Weiter' (Next) in the bottom right corner
- The next screen is for your payment options - no choices to make here though as you can only pay via credit card so the button next to 'Kreditkarte' (Credit card) is pressed by default, so click 'Weiter' (Next)
- This page shows you a complete overview of your order - make sure that ALL of the details are correct, especially your address and how many Wii Fits you have in your basket! You will see that the delivery cost is 6.95 Euros which is very cheap! Check the square white box to the left of 'Ja, ich stimme den AGB zu' (Yes, I agree with the terms of use) and also check the square white box to the left of 'Ja, ich stimme den Datenschutzbestimmungen zu' (Yes, I agree with the data protection provisions)
- Click on 'Bestellung abschicken' (Order) in the bottom right corner
- Finally you have the credit card payment screen - fill in your credit card details. It's self explanatory what do do here - once completed, click on the red pay button
That's it! Now sit back, relax and wait for your Wii Fit to arrive!
Note: I take no responsibility if something goes wrong with this process and you end up ordering the wrong item. This is all correct to the best of my knowledge, but web sites can change, as can prices!
