cheets Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 My gamestation was like, come on it mate, but first can we get rid of the pre-orders. I may sell one of my Component cables on here but how could I do it? Raffle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were half reasonable I reckon you'd get a fair few people interested. Most would rather wait than keep feeding this low supply + high demand = high price problem. I know I would.

cheets Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I know, but I would love to offer something to here but I aint going to give it away for free. There is 12 component cables on eBay and one is going for £47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog-amoto Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 My god. I've been up since 4.30 this morning. My GAME doesn't open till 7, not setting off for another hour or so, but I woke up and couldn't get back to sleep! Got the day off today, so excited!! FFS, I'm a 28 year old bloke and I'm as giddy as a kid on Xmas Eve. Times like this make me glad that I play games!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Apparently buying WiiPlay is the way to go get some Wiimotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is 12 component cables on eBay and one is going for £47 Don't get me wrong, I can't blame you for wanting to make a buck. I've just found myself on the wrong end of way too many launch shortages to remember and the fact the same thing happens every time with people getting hold of stuff and selling it on more expensive just riles me up. £47 is a lot, but it proves there are people mental enough to pay it.

Sooj Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Its 06:12 am and I simply can not get to sleep. Just 2 hours away from getting my Wii its going to be amazing then later in the evening I'll be getting all my mates up to have a good ol' games night WiiTennis should go down a storm lol. I plan on getting an extra wii-mote and nunchuck, hopefully I get it! Sad thing is, I've been practicing WiiTennis and WiiBoxing with my TV and DVD remote control on a powerless TV haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was hard at midnight They had none in stock at all, the Wii remote is in short supply full stop, considering people want 4 per Wii time a millon thats 4 million wii remotes for US and Jap alone.

Sooj Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 . all these people saying they are getting them soon are u store orders or online edit if ur trying to get a wii remote in store u will be very lucky gaemstation and asda had none at all, they are really in short suppy. In store, GAME are opening up at 9 but even though I have pre-ordered and guaranteed one, I'm going to be there for 8:30 hopefully. Pick up some controllers, nunchucks, Wiiplay + my Wii, Zelda, RedSteel. I'm a massive Zelda fan, but I'm more excited to play WiiSport Tennis and Boxing against my mum right now than Zelda lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheets Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I am tempted to go down to my Game store but after going to Asda and Gamestation there is no point, the acessories will have been delayed or taken by the first few pre-ordereres. There is not enought to go around, its the xbox 360 launch all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 No sleep either for me tonight, erm last night, er... this morning... Whatever!

Stocka Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I woke up early this morning with excitement. I'm going into the city soon to buy Zelda and then I just need my wii to come from Parcelforce, preferable before 11am. Doubt it'll be that early though, mail has been getting later and later recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
