    Game in Bangor N.Ireland have them, the manager would not let me buy one by itself and only offered me a bundle, i could choose to pay £278 or £334.
    I accused him of price fixing and told him that that was illegal. I asked him for the customer services number and his name and he then said i could have my wii for £179.99 with wii sports.

    Dont give in people !!!

    I want to buy a package that has both a Wii controller & a nunchuck in as an extra, does anyone know where to get them from together as one box?
    I think it is really mad as most games are mutiplayer and you have to go round buying them as seperates.
    I think it is crazy that we have to do this. ANYONE FEEL THEM SAME?
    but most of all does anyone know where to get the best deal from?

    Console is £220 if you have 2 sets so no Nintendo haven't done it and its because the cant compete techwise with the 360 so why make it cost more that the bog standard xbox

    Game in enfield took delivery of some this afternoon if that helps anyone.

    Thanks to everyone on this thread for their input, We went out yesturday and nowhere had any wii's!! So many of the stores said they couldnt get any in for the foreseeable(sp) future!!
    So today, I called all he local stores of those mentioned here and after a whole morning and afternoon of "no's" I finaly got through to game(enfield) and sweet guy said he'd get a delivery after 1.30 but couldnt guarentee if wii's would be on it but to call back and if they were then they could hold one until end of store closing. Called over stores while waiting and when the time came number was engaged :) guess oher people were calling afer delivery time!!
    Anyway, they had a few in. Standard pack and then bundles.

    Thanks to everyone who have posted and encouraged others not to give up!!:beer:
    look after the pennies.....

    kyle, my local costco didn't stock them so it's worth calling first.
