Yes, but they sell things like that at a loss/equal margin to encourage people to buy it, and then there'll be a wjole load of new games brought out to use the board with!
It's a marketting ploy!
You can't buy the games without the board, so you keep the board cheap.
Possibly, though it's showing as RRP £34.99 on the link above, so it looks like they are basing their offer on some incorrect info. Unless they are selling the game without the balance board.
They can't be selling the game without the balance board. First of all their website says " WiiFit (with Balance Board) " and second i dont think nintendo will be selling the two separately. Well not at first at least.
It is the correct price!! It says on this link that the retail price is set for the us and Japan and in america it is $75 and in pounds that is £36.00!
So tempted to pre-order but I am worried they will not honour the price on this one as the Fifa image worries me that I will end up with that game being posted through my letterbox, and I hate mucking about with returns.
Good luck to anyone who has the balls to do it though haha

I'm afraid it doesn't work like that - though I wish it would. We have to wait for a confirmed European & UK price which is set independently from US/Japan. Maybe they are thinking RRP £40 rather than the £50 we've been expecting.
shop-to certainly seems like a cheap place anyway so I don't think it's much of a risk to pre-order, at worse you'll be a couple of quid down on (say) Virgin, but I still think it likely they've mispriced and you'll be quids in.
Anyone pre-ordered yet?
Seems like nothing to loose? Best case you get for less than RRP, worst case;
option 1: they send fifa07 and has to be returned/refunded,
option 2: they realise the mistake and don't honour advertised price and we have to pay the difference to proper rrp (or less as Shopto pretty competative on prices?
given US pricing, I would bet that it's an error, but could be a loss leading pricing strategy of Nintendo and they make money on other games sales that need the board for control?
Think i'll go for it and see what happens. Fit was one of the reasons I went for the wii, keeps the missus interested in the console and not a purely a 'boys toy'
