2000 points cards in the US should cost US$20 because it's US$1 for every 100 WiiPoints.

You probally don't care but in Australia they cost AUS$30 which is correct because here it's AUS$1.50 for every 100 WiiPoints

You can go here (Wikipedia Page so there's a small chance the information is inaccurate) to check differences in pricing.

I'm not too sure but I'm pretty sure that the WiiPoint Cards are Country locked (Someone can correct me) so if Miami and where you live are in different countries (I don't know where you live and it should probally stay that way :D) the Card may not work, But again, I'm not 100% sure.

UK? actually it's more like 70 US dollars in the UK not 60(assuming you're from here) , which i think is a major rip off. and i think you mean 20,000 points. the 2,000 point card costs £14 or around $28(US)

Is there a 20,000 point card? Because I thought that everyone had a 10,000 point limit on how many points one could have at a time.

Nope, you're right

Points cardsa are region locked.

The best bet is to get them from your shopping channel to make sure you're getting the cheapest price possible.

No, but I don't think they work internationally. I'm pretty sure they say on the package that North American Wii points don't work elsewhere.

Where did you buy your Wii? Because Wii Point cards in the US only work with US Wiis. It doesn't matter if you don't live in the US, if your Wii is from there, it can recieve Wii Points from the US cards. That's my case.

Most of the time, I buy my Wii points over the Wii Shop Channel. The Shop channel is from the USA. So, I buy mine in the USA and I'm Canadian. We have the same servers as the Americans have. I think it's more like per territories not by countries. You can't buy European wii points and put them on the NA VC.

Hey guys, I bought a Wii Poinst Card in France, but now that I return here in Venezuela I can't use it...

Anyway, I wrote to Nintendo and they told me that they can't change it for a new one, so I don't know what to do with it...If somebody is interested just let me know....
