Posted March 14, 2013 I think the price has just unofficially dropped at a bunch of online retailers. Seems the Premium is now £250 and the basic is £200. A welcome drop, but I think she's still got some limbo in her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 17, 2013 Amazon UK - WiiU Premium £249 / Basic £199. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nintendo-Wii-32GB-Premium-Pack/dp/B008B5YB4W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1363222714&sr=8-1 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nintendo-Wii-8GB-Basic-Pack/dp/B004Y59P3A/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1363222714&sr=8-2 Basic is still £200, but premium's gone up to £290. I've seen AmazonWarehouseDeals sells 'used' Wii Us which they say are tested faulty returns - £222. I'm tempted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 17, 2013 @Rummy If you still have a Wii, you can currently get £50 Credit for it on Amazon Trade-In, to take off the price of the Wii U. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ahh, unfortunately I find it really difficult to part with my consoles, though I did consider doing it. Plus it'd also stop me smashing with gamecube pads :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 20, 2013 Asks the guy with two Gamecubes and two broken Virtual Boys. You forgot my 2 wiis, 2 3ds, 5. Different gameboys and a few gameboy advance iterations (inc. micro) And one virtual boy isn't broke.

Remember, I introduced you to the delights of mario tennis That virtual boy IS broken, the one screen is faulty, I've had a twitch in that eye ever since using it - I think its rotated 36 degrees in its socket. @Grazza And a length of duck tape.

Posted March 21, 2013 Don't be mean, the Wii U has some great games and starting from tomorrow it's going to get much better! What happens tomorrow..? I assume that's when Monster Hunter is released.. but it doesn't interest me I know I was being 'mean', albeit jokingly, even if I was being somewhat serious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 22, 2013 £199 for Premium with Zombie U - In-store - HMV - possibly closing-down stores only? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 22, 2013 £199 for Premium with Zombie U - In-store - HMV - possibly closing-down stores only? Seems like it's in all stores. That's awfully tempting, especially seeing I got paid today... But if the deals are this good now, are they going to be even better by the time there's some games I want??

But if the deals are this good now, are they going to be even better by the time there's some games I want?? I think it's a gamble. If nintendo suddenly start advertising and people see games there they want, prices might stabilise. Unless Nintendo are completely feckless, I can't see them letting this situation carry on for much longer, not with Lego city and monster hunter sitting there now.

Posted March 22, 2013 I couldn't possibly resist that HMV deal and dropped some cash on a system a few minutes ago. £199.99 for the Wii U Premium, Nintendoland and a separate copy of ZombiU. I also grabbed Monster Hunter for the extortionate price of £50 in GAME, but with the console this cheap who actually cares? Nintendo Network ID will be coming tonight.

Posted March 22, 2013 Argh so tempting. It really is a bargain. But I have Fire Emblem to devote my time too for a review, and since I've moved back home, I seem to be bottom of the pecking order for TV use... if I was living on my own again I don't think I'd hesitate!

Posted March 22, 2013 There still need to be some games for me to buy the console, otherwise I'll buy it at a tempting price like £199, and it'll still just sit there! :p Games that interest me: Nintendo Land, ZombiU, Lego City... but that's it and I don't think they're anywhere near enough. Will most likely wait until Christmas and grab a Mario Kart bundle or something maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
