I didn't get called by Gamestation today, but I'll phone them on Saturday to check. I really hope Gamestation haven't messed up the moving of my preorder, as I don't have it preordered elsewhere. Mind you, I think somebody might have been at home today, so they might have taken the message.

I would say no because there's a lot of demand.Do you have 2 pre-orders?

 

 

No just the one.

 

I dont think I have a chance either tbh, but I hope they have enough stock. They told me they would get enough to cover their pre-orders of over 200 so Im hoping they have a few going spare :D

it's kinda weird that only people who pre-ordered are allowed to go to the midnight launches. either they're opening at midnight just for us hardcore nintenfreaks OR they HAVE fucked up the preorder system and you need to be inline to make sure you get your Wii.

 

either way i'm getting what i wanted-a UK Wii as soon as possible.

.......................

Dear HMV Customer,

 

We are writing to you with regards to your order for the following item:

Cat.No: NIN379

Artist: NINTENDO WII CONTROLLER

Title : WII REMOTE

 

Although updates are being received from Nintendo each day ahead of the launch

of the Nintendo Wii console, we have now received notification of the stock

levels we will receive within our first shipment.

 

Unfortunately, we will not be able to fulfil your order within our initial stock

allocation, and with this particular item, Nintendo are producing very low

quantities.

 

There is an alternate product available, and we do currently have spare stock

for launch, though again stock is limited with this item. The following item -

Wii Play - comes with a Wii Remote attached to it, and is available to order for

£32.99. If you would like your order amended to this product, at the higher

retail price, please reply directly to this email. Full details of the Wii Play

can be found by clicking on the link below:

<http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=592781>'>http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=592781>

 

Rest assured that we will be working hard to obtain further stock from Nintendo,

but at this point cannot provide a confirmed delivery date to you, and the Wii

Remote in particular will be in very short supply.

 

Please note that if you have ordered a Nintendo Wii console, and have not

received an email from us confirming a delivery date for your order we are

unable to provide any further update at present. Once we receive details from

Nintendo of any further stock allocations following the launch on 8th December,

we will be in contact with you.

 

Please accept our apologies for any disappointment caused. We would recommend

that you do not cancel your order, as this will mean you will lose your place in

the queue. However, should you chose to cancel your order, you may do so via

your account on the HMV web site.

 

Regards,

 

HMV Online Customer Service Team

My order with Woolworths have changed to 'Ready to dispatch' for my console (not for my copy of Zelda).

 

The money has also been taken out of my account!

 

Looks like Woolies have come good again.

 

lucky...no change over at amazon, and I've emailed them twice asking about Zelda and they just keep sending the same generic Wii email, that they were sending out before the preorders started!

You know when you shout something like that... you better have a source to back it up.

 

yeah i agree! so your saying where I work we are getting 25 Wii's so we are only gonna get 6.25 copies...no way for one of the biggest titles of the year thats rubbish. Surely Nintendo aren't that damn.

Haha yes! I was jsut reading this thread, and my mobile rang. I answered

"Hello is this Ashley Mattehws, It's Adam from Gamestation"

My order is confirmed! He asked me if i was getting games, it felt, for some reason, awkward to say i was getting them from an online store. But oh well. I need to save money.
