Last Year for an Xbox 360 I queued from midday for the launch at midnight. I was shocked to find they had 12 people queuing already (but had 14 consoles so I was okay)..

Oh mannnn! that's way out of wack lol. I was thinking, getting to ASDA for 10pm on the Thu to claim my prize... - evidently this wont work out!

I still can't believe that people queue from early hours in the morning to get consoles...when they're released the next day!!? - madness (shurley if they want it so much, they'd have had the forsight to pre-order? lol,... says me).

You may be lucky as I believe a lot more Wii's will be available on launch day than we had with the Xbox 360.

Your best bet is to go into Asda at lunchtime on Thursday and see what the manager says (or be prepared to queue)... :rotfl:

Also, make sure you checkout the following forum:

If Wii's are available anywhere it will be mentioned on this forum I'm sure.

Chuffin' hell! On the launch day for the 360 I just went into Woolworths and asked if they had any 360's, hey presto a spanky new 'premium' model & no pre-order!

To be honest I reckon that there will be Wii's on the shelves on launch day. You just have to look in the right shops. Instead of GAME/Gamestation etc try going into the likes of Virgin/HMV/Debenhams/Tesco etc on launch day. Online orders for these machines are sent out from central depots but I'd be willing to bet that they'll also get some spare machines out to the actual stores.
