Wii in limerick

MarkR

Looking for one for a colleague, any about?

Lazers pew pew

supposed to be a shortage running up to xmas
my mate had to get one on ebay for €300

Pigletlover

I take it they've tried the usual places - Gamestop & Smyths? Xtra Vision is somewhere people often forget. If it's there's none available in Limerick they should be able to get them elsewhere, my mother had no problem getting one last week (not in Limerick).

Big shortage of them. Gamestop will be getting them in both Limerick stores in the next two weeks, but it will only be a small number.



HMV on Cruises Street may be worth a call. 061418881 is their main line.


Online would be the best way to get one at the mo imho.

MarkR

Thanks, will give it a go.

Was in Harvey Norman in Limerick about an hour ago, and they have an "In Stock" sign on the demo WII console which you can play instore.

Have they still not beaten the backlog a year on?!?! Oh, thats just shameful!

That's a defo no. Won't be back in for a week or two.


Symths had an ad on Live95FM about some offer on the WII this morning, might be worth a phonecall by the OP.

They can't be got in the shops, try buy and sell or ebay.ie

Don't bother with Ebay unless you really wan one for x mass and money is not a problem, its just full of people who are trying to make a lot of money selling off the console for twice its retail value,

Id wait till they come back into the shops after x mass, you wallets will thank you

If your really desperate try Nintendos website they sell the Japenese versions and you could change the plug or whatever......
I heard that Gamestop had them in stock yesterday, meant to be a mad rush. rumour was running all across the crescent!

japanese version plays japanese games... EU wii games wont play on it, its not like the DS which is region free

Unless (which I doubt) the OP speaks japanese and doesnt mine buying all his games off the net

I was in Gamestop in the cresent on Thursday and they had them ...sold 3 of them while I was at the counter being served .

Yesterday morning, Dec 5th, joined smallish queue outside Game on Cruises Street. Ended up there was 50 wii's available. Everyone in queue got one I reckon. I got the tip about this delivery on BOARDS in the gaming threads area.
Check out Boards for future leads!!

the best place mark is ebay but just check the sellers history

Thanks for all your help. The lady in question got her wii delivered yesterday, purchased through ebay at quite a bit more then I'd pay for it!
