Posted December 7, 2006 Earlier in the thread someone mentioned that only a certain amount of 24hr Tescos will be stocking Wiis, is there a list of which ones available like there was for Asdas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 7, 2006 Just phoned ASDA and the woman says that they are ONLY getting the Wii's in NO extra controllers or leads She says that they will come in at a later date Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 7, 2006 Earlier in the thread someone mentioned that only a certain amount of 24hr Tescos will be stocking Wiis, is there a list of which ones available like there was for Asdas? Nope. I forgot to ask for the list off the person in the actual shop, but then I ran customer services and they didn't even know either (that was on Tuesday). I know that the massive one near Potters Bar is getting them though. Asda seems like the best bet though. And I'd get there early if you really want to get one from there. As last year at the 360 launch, people were waiting around from 3pm until 12 in alot of stores. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As last year at the 360 launch, people were waiting around from 3pm until 12 in alot of stores. Think I got more chance with Tesco where I stay. The closest 24 hr Asda doesn't even do DS games, (tho it does other systems) even though the closest Asda (not 24hr) does do DS!? And also it's not on the earlier list. Although is there any chance they could still get games and accessories even if they don't get any consoles in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 7, 2006 There's a list of the Asda stores with Wii hardware in a few of the other threads. If you're going with Tesco, then I recommend you ring round now to find out if your locals have got any. Store contact details can be found on their website.

Posted December 7, 2006 Is anyone watching ebay ? its tempting to put my one and only pre-order up on it they're going for £300 and above, but then i would have to wait to get one..................... no just can't do however tempting that money sounds! by the way people who have got their pre-orders from game.co.uk and are being shipped by parcelforce do your tracking numbers work ?!

Posted December 7, 2006 To be fair, all the confirmations I've received from Gameplay in the past came at past 5pm and I still got it next day (for the most part) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 7, 2006 To be fair, all the confirmations I've received from Gameplay in the past came at past 5pm and I still got it next day (for the most part) I have had many times when i got the emails from Gameplay to say a game has been dispatched after the game arrived at my door! There still saying over at Gameplay not to worry even if it still say "being picked" tonight because it might not even change by the morning but everyones Wii's are still going out today.

Posted December 7, 2006 Well its confirmed:( play will not be sending me my wii for tomorrow even though i pre-ordered. i am however on a new list which will let me get one in the next batch... think im gonna cancel it and go looking for 1 in town tomorrow.... its the only option i have:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 7, 2006 Pointless cancelling it now, wait till tomorrow to see if you get lucky or not. I'd ring up lots of smaller places like Asda and Tesco NOW and find out what they're getting stock wise then get there early tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 7, 2006 My amazon order has been dispatched! But my zelda order hasn't yet . Exactly the same. For anyone who's interested, when I go to track it: "Dec 07, 2006 01:09:00 PM National Hub Departure Scan" Yet my order with monkey ball and zelda hasn't been dispatched yet.

Posted December 7, 2006 i'll be picking up my wii tomorrow from GAME at around 7:30am and then getting the bus back home to play the god-like thing! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 7, 2006 I just rigged up the GameCube to see how it looked in composite after so long on RGB. Looked absolutely horrible, so my excitement is dampened slightly in knowing this. However on the regular TV in the living room it looks okay More comfy in there as well, so I guess it'll hafta do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 7, 2006 My Zelda hasn't been dispatched, but shopto.net (where I'm getting it from) will ship things as late as 5:30 for next day delivery. I have CoD3 already though, so I can live without Zelda for a couple of days...just... As for the Wii itself, I have a Wii pre-ordered from a local Curry's, and as they have taken the deposit, they have to give me one. they can't take even a deposit if they don't guarantee it for me. That's why most big websites don't take any money until they ship you the item. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
