Re: i need a wii!
Argos have some for store pick up only. Some stores are still out of stock though.
http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/5683257.htm I did see a couple in Morrisons the last time I was in. You might need to move the large piles of unsold PS3's to see them though. :D |
Re: i need a wii!
yep not one near me sadley checked 12 stores :(
i keep seeing gamestation / game / comet get them but i wont pay £300 to get some games i dont want :( |
Re: i need a wii!
I got one a few weeks ago. Just by luck. I called round every gaming store I could think of and managed to find a store with one in stock.
That probably your best bet, Call around. |
Re: i need a wii!
I saw a rumour that the stock problems were being artificially created by Nintendo, and will be miraculously resolved this month, in an attempt to help make their figures for this financial year look as good as last year's.

So I think they are sending lots and lots of Wii's out its just they getting sold very quickly and they, like Microsoft, do not have the capability to meet the high demand. |

I used those sites last week to find one..... I had their "auto refresh" stock pages open. http://www.wii-consoles.co.uk/wii_console_realtime.asp http://www.wiipreorder.co.uk/Wii-Stock-Alerts.aspx Friday night last week, both updated with "IN STOCK AT AMAZON!". I shot onto Amazon, & bought one (just the console, no stupid bundle) before they sold out. Just be patient. Amazon seem to have been getting stock fairly regularly compared to some other sites. If you do go for a bundle from somewhere like GAME etc., I think that you can return any unwanted bundle games for a refund. Best to check their Terms though. |

Argos still has the Wii version of Zelda for £19.99 http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/5683415.htm ( courtesy of Gareth - http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/30...a-19-99-a.html ) GameStation have Excite Truck for £24.99 http://www.gamestation.co.uk/product...01279128574277 SSX Blur, which is meant to be very good, is going for £29.98 at Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Electronic-A...6238271&sr=8-1 Also consider..... - Another Wiimote. - Loads of Wii Points for all those classic NES, SNES, N64 & Megadrive games on the Virtual Console. - A classic controller, for the VC games. - A GameCube controller, for playing old Cube games like Mario, Metroid, Resident Evil 4, etc... (and it will also work with VC games, as well as Cube games). - Some old Cube games. Oh, & a Cube memory card for them. - Lots of patience, while waiting for Super Paper Mario, Super Mario Galaxy, & Metroid Prime 3. |
Re: i need a wii!
If you want to get hold of a wii and cannot locate one online then I would get along to your nearest gamestation store.
Unlike game which would not let me pre-order (most strange), gamestation let you put a deposit down for £20 and to join a queue. Under my circumstances I had one within 5 weeks. I am surprised nintendo have not got on top of the supply and demand issue yet. I am not convinced that nintendo are holding them back. I personally think it is down to the demand from the general public for a new generation console that most people can afford to buy and nintendo have under under estimated the demand. |
