    Hi, I got mine late yesterday from Asda Bury (Pilsworth Store). I phoned first and she said they had quite a few in. There number is 0161 351 2500. I'm sure they'll put one away for you. Hope this helps.

    Yay! :j
    I went to my local Asda (Gloucester) thinking I'd have no chance. Found the console box, and then looked for the games (only vaguely remembering which ones they were!). Managed to find both, but saw no adverts anywhere in store. Went up to the counter and said that I had seen an advert for the offer but I wasn't sure if it was these games. The girl laughed and said "where did you find that, we were looking for it earlier!". She said they knew about the offer but didn't think they had it. Thankfully, she let me buy it and I'm a very happy bunny! I was going to get the deal posted before at Gamestation but ummed and ahhed and by the time I decided I'd missed out on Wii Play and Mario Kart being available. This is great though. Will exchange the Smackdown one and put it towards something else. Just got to find Wii Play from somewhere now. I tried to find the post on HUKD but couldn't find it as I wanted to thank the person on there that the OP cited.

    Anyway, many thanks and it's always worth going and having a look and asking even if there's no mention of it in store.

    Well Done :T

    I've order wii play today from www.zavvi.co.uk where it states instock for £30 delivered. Doubt if you'll find cheaper than that.
    I've also just used my £5 Amazon voucher, that i got free from the 3V promotion, towards a nunchuck which meant i only paid £9.99 delivered.

    Yeah, I had a little look and that seemed a good price so I've ordered one too. What's the 3V promotion and have I missed it?

    Lucky you, the nearest Asda to me that might have one is 100 mile round trip, a bit too far to go on a moped so will just have to wait for another offer to come up. Irony being my local Asda store 15 mile round trip as had a couple another delivery of wii fits.

    I thought it was was going to be more difficult than it actually was.
    I had my reservations about a Wii, siding from experience with the PS2 Eye toy - but at this offer was worth a punt, and 1st impressions are i'm well impressed.

    Tell you something though after playing Wii Sports for a few hours on different events, who needs Wii Fit :o
  • spent 40 mins in traffic getting to Beckton Asda on saturday. even thought it was advertised out of stock in their store the shop attendant had no idea of the offer. they phoned Dagenham, and they had them in stock. drove down. picked up my wii and loving every minute of it.

    ive seen the reviews for the games in the package and they aint great. trading them in at gamestation, do they need to be sealed? would i get more as trade in if they are sealed. im asking because im tempted to open them just to have a go, but i dont think i really want to keep them. (wii sports has been sufficient fun so far).
    Treat everyday as your last one on earth! and one day you will be right.
