We can confirm, despite a European shortage of the Nintendo Wii consoles, that Play.com should be able to supply your pre-ordered Nintendo Wii at launch.

If you no longer wish to keep your pre-order with Play.com please login to your account and remove the item from your Outstanding Orders.

Kind Regards

Chanding lady please! Hes wiid his pants  :mrgreen:

congrats mate

party is around yours then yeah?

I rang gamestation today, they informed me, not everyone who pre-ordered will get it on release date.

On the website it says if you ordered before Nov. 9th youll get one on release day. Considering I pre-ordered Sept 16th, Im hoping ill be ok.

Gunna go down to the store in person tomorrow though and see if I can somehow make sure im top of the list. (or at least know how close to the top I am, I hate the idea of not knowing!)

Ive had my Game order confirmed for over a month now

Since I was fifth in the preorder queue its not a surprise, but Ill still be in line for the shop opening.

Whats the chances of getting a wii this year without preorder? (Not for me)

Slim.  You possible option is to camp out at a super market on the day to try and get one at midnight maybe.

consume a vast quantity of alchol and at some point your guarentied youll need a wii    



they do look to be this christmass console though, wonder how many will be about come late january to pick up with nice bundles  

I would never buy a console on release day, its always worth waiting a few months and then having a look at the bundles that come out.

why do you think im waiting?  Ill keep the shiny Ã,£50 X-Box until the wii comes out, then itll prolly become a media server
