Hi I live in Mexico City and I can't find Wii points anywhere so I thought I could buy some using the internet connection so I have a few questions for you guys.

Can I use a debit card to buy them?
How safe is this connection?
Is it possible for someone to steal my cards?
Do you know someone who had downloaded wii points?

I'll appreciate your answers and thank you

Best Buy Nintendo Wii

    yes you can use a debit card

    the only way the connection wouldn’t work if your internet cable is unplugged or if some how the power went out at the same time

    well some one could steal your card if they break into your home, and think about it, if nintendo scammed people it would be all over the news and you would hear about nintendo being sued, and millions of people download this stuff

    well i downloaded wii points from a wii card and it worked just fine

    NOTE: some channels are free to download, also i hope you know when you use or debit or credit card that the points are downloaded to your wii immediately same if you bought a wii card because you just input a code from the card and then wii points come onto your wii immediately

    have fun downloading games and channels and download the free channels, and it gets addicting playing the games and new channels so use your wii points/money wisely and HAVE FUN :D

    the Wii does not keep your card information, so it can’t be stolen.

    and even if it did, there are no viruses that target the Wii.
    mostly because there are many millions more people that use computers than Wiis, and it’s easier to target a computer anyway.

    I am from mexico too (chihuahua)
    And i bought wii points 2 times

    and i think is safe,
    I don’t think what a big company as Nintendo stole us by our credit cards, when they won millions at days

    Si es seguro, bueno al menos a mi no me a pasado nada
