Kwaad:
Few people will risk having several preorders in France, as you have to pay 20% of the price upfront for having a preorder secured.
Which means nobody will make 8 preorders except scalpers.
You can get your money back when you want, as long as the console is not there yet.
I don't know how much the Wii is in France but at $250USD that would mean 8 pre-orders at 20% down is $400 down. I can only see scalpers doing that.
