Could be but you could also get it Saturday morning.

 

In terms of my hype, it's all but gone. I'm going to try Asda but I'm not hopeful. My only hope is some Nintendo fans that have pre ordered 2, therefore giving the shops more. Still considering going to town tomorrow morning. If not I guess it's just wait until Gameplay deliver it when I'll be back at work and having to wait even longer cus nobody will be in. : peace:

Gameplay console orders are dispatched via next day courier I'm sure, so if it gets dispatched sometime today...it should be with you for tomorrow.

 

:yay:

This is exactly why i didn't order online.

I tried doing it in game but for 5 days in a row they were fucking me over saying their system wasnt taking any pre-orders when every othr shop was...so I thought: "Why bother"

 

But its paying off

The consoles will be going via courier (parcelforce), so if they cant deliver the goods, they would return them to their local depot..and that isnt always very close by. If you phone them to arrange a redelivery, they probably wouldnt be able to do it until Monday.

 

Gameplay used to use City Link, and they dumped a guy's Xbox 360 premium pack in his hedge once..lol.

The Amazon orders should all display dispatched throughout today.

 

I ordered Wii Play too for the extra controller, I noticed the person above with a delivery date of 8th - 9th also ordered Wii Play. I wonder if that's what's holding it up? Hope not!

Stocka, what you should be able to do today or early tomorrow is call Gameplay and get a tracking number for the courier. You can then phone them and ask for an ETA.

Mine all still say Pre-Ordered, but I haven't had an email of doom yet. I'm taking this as a good thing.

I would much rather have my wii handed to me in the flesh... walk 5 mins down the road to where I live and enjoy.

I was expecting shortages but seriously not this much!

 

No remote controllers! Hardly any Zeldas! No cables!

 

Pyxis, are Gameplay getting any Component Cables in today for dispatch would you know?

 

It's not running as smoothly as many of us would of hoped....but my god is very exciting!
