    He should get a free one, for all the publicity he's getting the store and wii.

    just seen an email in my inbox from currys:

    Thank you for pre-ordering your Nintendo Wii with us. As communicated at the time of your pre-order and due to the unprecedented demand for the console, along with a European shortage in stock, we are currently unable to deliver your order.

    We are working closely with Nintendo to ensure we will fulfil your pre-order before Christmas

    We are working on a first come, first serve basis and we will contact you again, once your Wii pre-order is available for dispatch.


    I also got that email. I contacted Currys and they gave a date of 31/01/07. They will try to get some out before that date but in all honesty it doesn't look promising. I also went to a Currys in town and they said they won't be getting a SINGLE console in store. The manager was pretty furious at Nintendo. Still, it doesn't help my case.

    Also went to Asda in Trafford Park. Only 8 Wii's available and I didn't get one.

    I work in a game store, and after working a 40 hour week, then traveling to oxford street, didn't have the energy i'm afraid :( Falling over drunk last night and pulling a layer of skin off my foot doesn't help >.<

    Oh well

    Woolworths aren't going to fulfil my pre order, I'm going to complain at them and get compensation since they guaranteed delivery on week of release (As far as I'm concerned that means latest they can supply is Saturday)
