I think this is a great idea and definitely what the UK high street is missing.
Not sure I agree on the choice of game but hey, its a start.
Now, if only they could work something out for the release of Street Fighter 4, I'll be one happy dude!!
Well, at least I will until I turn up and get my teeth smashed in.....
:D

@3
You're right! As if they've missed out London!
Since they've failed to include it, I'll pass. Not actually played SSB on Wii yet, I was a pro with Pikachu on the N64 version and with Nes. Sick!
