Hmm, yeah, but I don't have an attic. I have a small studio flat, with one small storage room which is very busy with a bunch of crap.
Even if the Wii breaks now - it's getting up to 3 years after I bought it, so any warranty would probably be with Nintendo anyway, so they won't want the box.
Cheers for the advice though. I think if I had the space, I'd keep the boxes....

And cheers to Sphincter too - you make a good point! The re-sale value is not very affected by the boxes at all!
