Thanks for all your responses,

and yes TwRoO, it is entirely possible that Nintendo haven't updated their internals much. We certainly haven't seen anyone with model number RVL-002(Country), and that they wont until supply drops below demand. But if that is what we find out from this at least we are more certain they haven't updated them :) I certainly haven't noticed any differences besides the one mentioned, and that seems to be a region difference rather than a time difference.

The problem is most of us bought Wiis early on. Has anyone bought a Wii in the past 6-9 months? I would appreciate responses from you if you have.

You are right in remembering V=IR, and that P=VI.
Often the first equation is substituted into the second, to give
P = I^2*R


So the equation makes sense for my Americas/Australia Wiis
Power Rating on the Wii = 12V 45W
Output 12V 3.7A
12*37 = 44.4

However it doesn't seem to make sense for Euro Wiis
