Need to buy a Wii!

Recommended Posts

Judging by the activity going on here it seems like a lot of your guys already have the wii. Previously I have been too busy to get my ass into gear and get one of those beauties.

 

So I was wondering if those with the experience know where to look that has stock? or will be having stock soon?

Earth.

 

In terms of a specific place, I am not able to offer my assistance further as I am not based in the continent that is Europe.

 

I have at least narrowed your search down to one planet within the solar system.

If that had a little more wit, I would have actually appreciated the response. Though it was in jest so nvm :laughing:

You can try ringing everywhere, but that takes a lot of effort. Try waiting untill january or february when most places should have them, or if that's too long, ebay or amazon marketplace. The prices are starting to drop now anyway.

I got mine at an independent game shop a week after I pre-ordered and had payed 50 euros beforehand. You should ring a few places and stick with the shop that will get it the earliest.

well your unlucky you decided this abit late, as the second big batch was knocking around last week and a lot of big stores, hmv,virgin etc... managed to fulfill their preorders so were putting them out on the shelves....we got 3 to sell at work, went in 10 mins...

 

but that won't be the case now...you won't get one till January (ok so techinically only next week) cos as far as I know Nintendo of Europe take a couple of weeks off xmas.

CLUE: I live on Earth and where I live is a place where you can buy a Wii.

As I suspected, you're a byproduct of the Internet!

well we, sorry, "I" didnt think it was gonna be such a hit,i pre-ordered my GC last time and there was like millions still on the shelfs. clearly i was mistaken, plus most of the people bought the wii for xmass for gifts and so it was more of an impulse buy.

 

ill wait till end of jan, if still no wii then ill just bag and xbox 360 or a DS as i have only my PS2 to pleasure myt self with.

I hope you're wrong , because I was told that mine should get delivered at some point this week , although the lack of communication from the place I ordered means you may be right.

 

Oh well , another week won't hurt much , although the wait is killing me slowly.
