Haden Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Going to gamestation today will report back if I get any info.
nstream Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I was one of the lucky few to grab one of Fridays new Amazon orders, and it promptly arrived Monday, Zelda and Rayman was delivered yesterday, and wiiplay and nunchuck have just been dispatched(only ordered last night)...
Haden Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 ... ... ... I could have got one on launch... They left me a voice message which I couldnt access as I have no credit to say mine was there. I was 43 they got 80. Oh well lol. To be honest my tv breaking for a bit and essays due in mean it was actually good I think. They may be getting them in tommorow! But I wont be able to play till christmas unless I sneak a game in quickly then wrap it up lol. Anyway well at least I will be getting one soon.

LegoMan1031 Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 High: My local Asda store had 10 in stock and i was lucky enough to purchase one of them!!!!! (Got Zelda and Wii play from Amazon, but strangly wii play did not come till tuesday, while zelda came on friday.....) Low: I can't play on it till christmas!!! (Its an xmas present from my mum and because my mum was in work early i had to go and buy it.........)
Joe Dark Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Talked to a few shops in Lancaster today, Woolworths seemed to be pissed off with Nintendo, Gamestation will only be getting enough to fill their preorders and HMV have some coming in on Friday or Monday but you have to buy it in a £250 bundle, surely thats illegal or something.
Chipseh Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 I still can't get over the fact that Parcelforce lost/stole/burned/destroyed my Wii en-route... I was one of the first to order at Amazon and now I'll be one of the last to get one. ARGH.
flameboy Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 HMV have some coming in on Friday or Monday but you have to buy it in a £250 bundle, surely thats illegal or something. I don't know who told you that, thats not true at all...I work for them an as far as we are concerned we can sell them to anyone for the normal price.
stuwii Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 friday is the next batch then including hmv? omg!!!!!!!!!!! wii friday for me then
Jav_NE Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 I just rang my local HMV about their second drop and they said they don't know anything yet but they should know more tomorrow or at the weekend (the guy said that's when they usually get contacted). He was hopeful they would have some early next week sometime. Here's hoping... (still can't believe all this hassle, i should've had one on launch; such is life).
badboyace84 Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 well i still didn't get one today but i will keep trying and after going 50 odd miles i did buy my second wiimote and nunchuck (the lady at game called it a numbchuck) hahaha and a classic controller will keep tring asda as they seem to be getting them in all the time
stuwii Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 javnes response was betting than the i have no idea from my hmv
BeerMonkey Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 i preordered from hmv.co.uk i just hope it arrives before xmas i wanna play wii sports/zelda on xmas day gunna ring hmv.co.uk if it doesnt arrive by the weekend
LegoMan1031 Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Well it i found out my local Asda got another 3 consoles in yesterday..... Not really alot for a second load but still better than nothing....... I work for Asda and they just kinda appear on a delivery in the warehouse, no warning about when we get more in or how many.........
badboyace84 Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 aparently asda have to sell all consoles by a certain time before more stock is delivered to there store aparently i was told yesterday that they missed the big order because they hadn't sold them all and ended up only getting 5 in
Mr_Master_X2 Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 I can't believe people are having trouble getting a Wii. I ordered one from Argos about a monthe before release, and it was sent and arrived day of release. The thing is though the extra joypad with WiiPlay wasn't (joypad for bro), so we phoned up to ask what was happening with it. Guess what? They got the wrong end of the stick and...SENT A SECOND WII CONSOLE!! Some poor person out there isn't getting their Wii this Xmas because of this. I feel awfull about it. Of course we're sending it back (instead of buying it for £179, then flogging it on Ebay for a helluva lot more) because this is someone's Xmast present, and I'd know how I'd feel if it was mine that didn't come.
Katie Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 HMV.co.uk gamecube zelda WHERE:? Has it been dispatched? My wii version was sent a week ago and still hasn't arrived so I ended up buying it in town. I should really stop being cheap and go with someone better altogether, My wii remote was on special order with them today so I cancelled and now I've ordered Wii Play from them but I doubt it will come by christmas.

You're the 3rd person I know of on the boards that Argos have sent too many Wiis to, good to hear you're sending it back.
Slaggis Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 you are the savour fro someone this chrimbo!
Majora's_Incarnation Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 I hate Currys:cry: they sent me a letter sayin id get one on the 8th then on the 8th sent another letter sayin i wont get one till new years!!!
Majora's_Incarnation Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 Yeah i keep harassin them so im gona go down torrow too and see if i can get one... they upped me onto some list coz i complained so i might just get one:yay:
BlueStar Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 Still got 3 of them. Argos said they'll send someone to pick up the extra 2 on Tuesday but they were supposed to do that on monday too and did they bollocks. Feel like I've stolen Christmas from the 2 people they were actually addressed to.
