Wii!Good news, people! Walmart.com has just began offering pre-orders for the Wii Points Card earlier this week. The Points Card is a monetary retail payment system for the Wii's premium game content. Redeemable at the Wii Shop Channel, an online division accessible via your Wii, Walmart.com is retailing 2000 Wii Points for US$ 24. 82.

The Virtual Console games, Nintendo's library of classic video game titles, will be initially offered at the Wii shop for US$ 5 to US$ 10. Meanwhile, Microsoft is also offering Microsoft Points, which basically is an online system at retail that pretty much works the same way. This one, though, sells 1600 US$ 19.99 at retail.

Wii lands in the U. S. on November 19 with a tag of US$ 249.99. And, no Paris. Walmart does not sell walls.
