Where can I get a Wii?
 

It's my Birthday in Jan and I really wanna buy myself a Wii, am asking for Money for my B'day to go towards it. Ideally I'd like to get one before Xmas so I can play over the holidays, but early Jan will do. Anyone know where I can get one?

Realise my odds are slim.

Unfortunately, I'd say that your chances are probably zero - I seem to remember that everywhere sold out within hours :shrug:

Possibly on Ebay, but of course it's gonna be priced outta the door :(

Re: Where can I get a Wii before Jan 4th
 

Amazon market place has some, I don't know what the price of them should be but they are £379.98 on there which sounds a lot to me :(

Keep checking places like Woolworths, HMV, Game etc.

They'll be getting supplies every so often up till Xmas and in the week in between. It was the same with the 360 last year, after Xmas Day a bunch appeared in shops.

I've tried my luck with Studio One, they claim delivery within 14 working days which will take me to a couple of days after my birrthday, but at least I'll be paying the retail price rather than some over inflated price.

Fingerrs crossed cos I need a wii :)

Supermarkets are your best bet.... My local Tesco has had a small but steady supply recently, and there's supposed to be 2 further deliveries this week (one on Wednesday and a final one on Friday, from what I've heard).

There was a large delivery on Friday night for lots of shops, so you could try hitting any of the gaming or electrical stores in your local town... just give them all a call and see if they've got any left.

As a last resort, prices on ebay have been falling steadily, so they're not fetching the completely ridiculous prices they were on launch day.

Update:

Many Games should be getting more shipments this week. Phone you local game store and ask, then phone each morning and get down there if they have one

ebuyer.com are putting more Wiis on their site tomorrow afternoon. Bundles only (unsurprisingly). They'll be posting in their forum one hour before they go live on the site, for anyone that uses their forums.

Good luck!

www.wiipreorder.co.uk and www.wiistock.co.uk are good sites to keep your eye on. I just got my Wii today after ordering from Woolworths on Thursday! Cancelled my preorder from Play as they have been so useless.

if you don't want to buy off ebay www.uksoftwaretech.co.uk have some in stock by £329.99
