You'll need two proofs of ID, I believe they must also have proof of address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 When you go to meet each other, take your DSs for some hot wifi action. PS: Make sure Moria doesn't try to snake. I've heard he does that a lot... I haven't played Mario Kart for ages, I've actually sold it. I'm borrowing one for tomorrow night along with Mario Kart, I'm going to practice snaking when I'm driving in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninestein Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 For all you guys going to HMV in London Oxford Street tomorrow night, here's some important info I just picked up from Nintendo Europe's site... *There will be 200 non-reserved (i.e. not customer pre-ordered) Wii consoles available to buy from midnight on 7th December. *Due to high anticipated demand, the store will issue wristbands to customers wishing to queue to buy the non-reserved consoles. Once there are 200 customers the queue will be closed. Please note that there will be no queuing allowed before 10.00am (Thursday morning). *The event starts at 11.00pm with gamers having the chance to play Wii Sports against top sporting celebrities Ian Wright, Pat Cash, Ricky Hatton and Nell McAndrew. Also available on the night will be a strictly limited edition The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess with a tin to store the game. *Please note that customers who have pre-ordered their console at HMV 150 Oxford Street, London, will be able to collect their consoles at this event only if they have been contacted by HMV staff at the store to confirm that their pre-order is available. *PLEASE NOTE - ONLY ONE Wii CONSOLE TO BE SOLD PER PERSON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blender Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 i just want the zelda tin. Shame i'd have to queue with the non-reserved wii people from 11am. Wouldnt have minded a 3hour queue. Probably give it miss now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabookerman Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I dont think ill bother with HMV. I will have castlevania with bonus and Metal gear portable ops. Thats good enough, infact, better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robrow Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 for what i heard about game in truro no midnight launch but there are opening up at 7 on the 8th , but for what i read on the forum there on 2 game stores that are doing midnight launch , i think its bad on there part on a lauch on a big console like the same store did a midnight launch for gta sa a game , the manger said he want to do it and he got staff to work for free but head office have said no , The only reason i can guess is due to the such low stock of everything there have got and game as a company dont want to look bad . If anyone know of a game store that is doing a midnight apart from london then please tell me . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintendo Fan Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I just got back from HMV in Oxford, you didn't have to queue up at 10am btw eventhough that's waht was said. I got there at 8:30 the shop was closed but there were some HMV staff in the alley way taking down the names and a photo of people that would come this evening. The wrist bands will be given out at 9:30 pm in HMV to the people that have put their names down on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Is this Zelda tin a shitty made HMV one, like the sort of thing they did with Wind Waker and put it in a cardboard sleeve? Or is it something Nintendo themselves have produced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Just spoke to the manager of the store I'm going to tonight, and he's said there's been a distribution problem with Wii Play, and his store hasn't received any copies. Dunno if it's a widespread thing, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
