SO if they have 2 containers, where will they be sold please? Or are they just being 'sat on' till December?

I'm at my Mum's in Essex & go home to Hampshire tomorrow morning, but will happily get up early & queue at Lakeside if it means getting one for my Hubby!

Thanks very much for all the info though - you lot are great!

however, they also have 130 games to to be released in the next 5 months, and according to our local game store, there are 80 new games in the next 5 weeks.

So they have 130 games being released in the next 5 months, but if Nintendo have lost sales to the 360/playstation3, then there will be less buyers!

Good ploy by retailers to say that they have them in their warehouses, but I have spoken to 2 buyers for some large retailers and they have said they do not know when they are getting them, as there is a shortage. So yes there may be some about but nowhere near enough to satisfy demand.

Nintendo have stated that there is a shortage, and this isnt being caused by retailers keeping them in their warehouses till the first week of December.

Where on earth do you find all of this out...

It was advertised in the sun newspaper,i rang up and they said it was the £299.99 package that was going to be up for grabs 1st come 1st served.

By my calculation, if its a 45ft container then it'll hold approx 3000 cubic ft, one wii console takes up approx 0.5 ft so thats 6000 per container.....

12,000 in total! That should keep a few kids happy for christmas!!
