    Seem to be sold out everywhere I tried or rang. (Smyths, Gamestop, Xtravision, World of Wonder, Tesco Ardkeen)

    Anyone know where I can get one or any that are definitely coming in? Please. :)

    Was told Argos had them ?

    Xtravision in Waterford most definitely won't be getting any before Xmas from what we've been told, only to guarantee our pre-books !

    I really can't understand the reason for all this uproar for DS Lites!! I mean this console has been out for ages, why the sudden surge in demand (don't say Christmas :mad:)

    It seems as if stockists and the manufacturer nearly enjoy creating a shortage for these things, it creates great publicity for them!

    I think it has been a combination between Good marketing and a sudden rise in popularity of the console. There has been a decent supply of them but demand is phenomenal ! It has gotten to a stage where I answer the phone and follow it with I'm sorry but we're out of Nintendo Wii's and DS's !

    JPA,

    If any come in I'll be sure to let you ASAP, I'm working the seven days before Christmas !

    Yea you will, Just basically try everywhere and say a prayer.. I remember last year working in world of wonder I almost got a hug every time I sold one to someone which wasn't very often btw..
