    My mam has decided she wants wii play for mothers day... i don't know what i've done to convince a 60 year old that video games are great but shes converted...Went looking in talalght today but no luck.

    Has anyone seen wii play with the remotes anywhere about recently?

    Very very tough to get.. well, there were as of the last fortnight or so.

    Checked all over Sligo and girlfriend checked around Dublin.. couldn't find any!

    Eventually ordered it from CDWOW but if you need it for Sunday, you're shit outta luck in that department.

    Probably best to check out a few of the Smyth's branches.. they seem to have them most often.




  • try xtra visions too, they're suprisingly well stocked

    Yeah. Although in saying that, my local Xtra-Vision is scandalously poor for Wii stuff.

    €60 for each game they have - they've gotten a few more recently as compared to the measly amount they had in January / February.

    More of a shocker is they're charging €60 for that budget title "Rampage: Total Destruction" - which you can buy for €23.99 on CDWOW! :eek:

    None of the shops in Ireland follow the budget title prices for the Wii, Kororinpa is NOT supposed to cost €60 either yet everywhere charges that. I actually spotted a game for €65 today, could have been in GameStop.

    I'd pick up Kororinpa if it weren't so expensive, €25-35 TOPS

    From what I heard, Smyths were the only people with them, but that was a few weeks ago.

    Possibly but i didn't think Kororinpa was an actual budget title.. it's €48.99 on CDWOW.

    thanks for the replies. Will try Smyths tomorrow seeing as their website says they have it in stock :)

    You're right, it was only a budget title in japan.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 83 ✭✭Terrynova3y2


    They have loads of them in the Smyths on Jervis St. I went in and they had at least 20 of them stocked behind the counter, think they are the only place you can get them in town at the moment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 866 ✭✭✭Rockiemalt


    Smyths in Tallaght. All behind the counter though. Game said to me there were getting them in soon also but i haven't been back there yet.

    Yeah, we usually have display cases at the bottom of the Wii section shelves, no room anywhere cos of the stupid PS3!
