Hi Steve,

there is little chance in my opinion to get a Wii soon in any retail store. As someone else mentioned somewhere all pre-orders will be fulfilled first. If any shop happens to get new stock imagine all the campers who'll sleep in front of the stores or the chaos and then within minutes all will be gone.

Another option - a very secure and reliable one which least know of actually - is to purchase a Nintendo Wii thru any trusted 3rd party seller directly at Amazon. They have good feedback, deliver on time, mostly are merchants themselves simply and Amazon operates as the platform, in fact the purchase is processed directly via Amazon as you would usually buy from them.

You might check it out at

and then click on "See all buying options" at the right.

This is actually currently the best choice to get your hands on a Wii at all - without any hassles.

You might also try out Ebay Express in the UK. Only selected and trusted merchants are accepted there:

If they are also sold out there you might try the normal ebay listings:

Good luck!

My husband and I got one about 4 weeks ago from Argos. When you type in the catalogue number to see if any are available it said no but by reserving one we got it the next day! Argos even sent us a text message to say it had arrived!
I think they are saying none are available to put people off - a work mate of my hubby's got his from Argos in day too. Worth a go!

Answer 5

if there is a gamestation nearby you should try there and where eva you decide to buy it from, hint that you are planning on buying it from elsewhere and they will more than likely offer you some extra goodies, but to tell you the truth unless he has lots of friends and they are about 15 dont expect too muh out of it, the games are quite expensive for what they are and there arent very many of them out.

Answer 6

hi
think the best thing to do is keep ringing argos, game, gamestation etc to check if any due in.

my friends son did this and last saturday managed to get one from game. Its a first come first served basis so you have to be ready to go when u ring!

hope this helps
