Mods please don't delete this, maybe this thread can be updated for local game shops and wether they have them in or no
FACT: Game and Gamestation get 50 in per week and take Pre-Orders starting after the shipment, pending how heavy the demand is where you live it is highly unlikely their will be consoles available for general sale from the 50 given to the shop.
Other shops such as Argos, PC World, Curry's, Comet, Woolworths get them at a different ratio pending on the demand E.G 10 one week 60 the next
You willl be searching for DAYS finding a Wii in the shops on general sale and the demand has yet to die down.
When will Wii's be commonly available?
The best chance of you getting a Wii will be from the Beginning of Feb to the end of March. After March you may struggle with retailers opting to cull their Wii deliveries for the release of the PS3, with expecption to Game and Gamestation
What is the best thing to do
Pre Order £20 deposit is all that it takes and you are guranteed to have a Wii on the next shipment or what ever shipment they state. No hassle, no thing, they call you and you get a Wii easy as Pie!
I don't have the time to get down to the High Street
I often ring up my local store and ask them about games/consoles and when they will be in or not and they are very knowledgeable and helpful...
You can find the contact telephone numbers in your local directory book or by clicking the following links
