  • Thanks welshgirlmel

    Just been on and ordered mine - it said they would be in touch with delivery date, so hopefully won't be too long! Went thru quidco so should get another 4% off. Been on all the websites this morning but they are all out of stock, so thanks again!

    Where did you order from and for how much?

    hiya, I ordered from boots and it was wii sports pack, £189.99 with free delivery. Had bonus points also so that wasnt too bad.
    Just been online now and its showing out of stock :cool:
  • Hey guys, spent the afternoon trapesing around Broadmead in Bristol trying to find one of these little beauties...absolutely EVERYWHERE out of stock with no idea of when they are all gonna get any in. Was gutted as it is meant to be for my daughters birthday in a couple of weeks...luckily for me my bro managed to find one in Tesco in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, said there is now one left if that helps anyone in Wiltshire land? I am so lucky my bro did that for me, or else I would have one very unhappy young lady to deal with. Whay are these blimin things so hard to come by? Crazy as they have been out since the end of last year...

  • If you need a Wii for xmas then get one now.
    Statement from Nintendo:

    "The Nintendo of America president has said the firm will not be able to cope with the demand for its Wii console this Christmas and that it's likely the system will temporarily disappear from the high street.

    Speaking to the Mercury News, Reggie Fils-Aime said: "We're working very hard to make sure that consumers are satisfied this holiday, but I can't guarantee that we're going to meet demand. As a matter of fact, I can tell you on the record that we won't.

    "What I can tell you is that typically, our inventory is lasting a day... I don't think we will know when supply crosses with demand until after the holiday season."

    Fils-Aime went on to state the problem is not the production of the console, rather it is the huge demand that is causing the chaos, adding: "The issue is not a lack of production. The issue is we went in with a curve that was aggressive, but the demand has been substantially more than that. And the ability to ramp up production and to sustain it is not a switch that you flick on."

    The surprising news comes following Nintendo's promise last month that an "unprecedented" number of Wii consoles will be available for the Christmas season."
    TESCO R&R was so much fun!.. Over a grand made!

    I am hoping to buy a Wii for my two sons for Christmas. Can anyone tell me what extra things I should buy for them. I suppose I would need two control pads or whatever they use. I looked on the Gameplay website but there seem to be so much stuff for the machine, I didn't know what to buy.
    Waddle you do eh?
