  • Hi

    Thanks for tip.....just phoned HMV and they have a few left so ordered one and it is coming in 3-5 days! I've been trying for weeks to get a wii fit...tried several stock checker websites and phoned Game & Argos daily but always missed out. So I am so happy now. Thanks for your help & advice. Good luck everyone!

    I have been try to find a Wii fit for months. I am on a few shops reserve lists and check with the stock checkers every day, but I finally ordered through Amazon France yesterday for £73.53. You have to be careful (do not click on the one click button ) You have to be registered with Amazon. Make sure its Amazon your buying from and not from the market place. I have cut and pasted some info that helped me. There are no language problems. Wii fit from France, 4 things
    1) Manual for wii ft board is in 11 languages 1st being English.(this has how to look after/trouble shooting problems etc)
    2) Glossy Game Manual is in French but English version can be down loaded from Nintendo site
    3) Board uses batteries so NO plug adapter needed.
    4) AS your console will be setup for English (mine is & I live in France). All games with English on them will automatically play the English version. Wii fit- is a 5 language version inc English.

    As for Germany, should be the same only gaming manual my only be in German. Both .de & .fr have all your UK login details/address/card details so shouldnt be a problem using it. Just double check it is coming from Amazon not a market place. I checked both sites yesterday & they had stock.
    If you go to site a type Wii fit , it should come then click on basket sign and should be same layout as UK.

    On French site - some translations-
    Disponibilit! : En stock. Exp!di! et vendu par Amazon.fr. Emballage cadeau disponible.= In stock and sold by Amazon.fr
    Ajouter au Panier= add to basket
    Passer la commande= check out
    Votre Compte = Your Account
    Supprimer- Is delete
    Mettre Dans La Panier= save till later
    Vous êtes d!jà client et votre mot de passe est= Basically You are an existing Customer so type in Your password.
    ( If you have a UK account, you are already recognised by the French...You are not a new customer)
    Hope this helps

    P.S United Kingdom in French is : Royaume-Uni Good luck

    I ordered using this post as a guide (thank you poster).The advice above is spot on!! My wii-fit arrived after 4 days. very happy and would try this again!

    Thank you for the info

    The argos website is showing no stock anywhere, but if you ring the home delivery number 08456402020, and give item number 568/5970 you might get one if you are quick, mine is coming on monday.

    Good Luck!!

    Got one (and a wii console) for a birthday present using this method - arrived within 24 hours. Thank you! :D Hadn't tried anywhere else so it was painless!

    Just phoned HMV, phone 0845 603 8576, and I'm getting one within 5 days!! It didn't show on any stock checker, I just phoned on the off chance, after it crashing the website the other day! I'm so pleased! Only actually been looking since yesterday!

    Thanks - just got one from HMV on the above number as well.
    Today is the first day of the rest of your life
  • Just got mine from a german site -http://www.buecher.de. Ordered on Sunday night and arrived this morning (Weds). :j
    Was 96 Euro including postage which is about £75!
    Haven't tried it yet as is for birthday (suppose I should give it a go?) but imagine the most I'll have to do is change language settings and can download booklet from Nintendo site.
    There is a fantastic guide somewhere on MSE which tells you how to go about ordering from buecher.de, but I'm afraid I can't find it now - maybe someone out there could post the link if they know?

    thanks for sharing this site, i`ve ordered one for my mum she very happy with the price just waiting for it to arrive now. i was lucky with mine came as part of a phone deal , i had to wait a week but my board came from germany and works fine. thanks again:T:T:T
