Hi

Just wondering has anyone been able to but this game anywhere today?

If so will you just mention the shop you got it in?

Cheers

According to toys.ie, Smyths have it in stock everywhere. Try ringing a branch to see if they're selling it yet.

Just called Smyths in Jervis and Gamestop in Henry street. Wait for this, official Wii wheel in Gamestop is €9.99 and the wheel in Smyths is €12.99, forgot to ask was the one in Jervis the official Nintendo one but at almost 3 yo'yos more it had better be.

Just a heads up guys if you are buying extra ones.....

I went to the midnight launch at Gamestop on Henry Street after the pub last night.

I also won a copy of Naruto for the Wii... neat.

It was €49.99 for Mario Kart.

Tried to get this in Tesco in Edenderry this morning .They eventually found them in the stockroom .When i took it to the till it would not scan:mad:.

The nice lady from the hardware dept said she take it to the computer room to get it put on the system.Suggested i call back on Monday when they should have it sorted!

Has anybody else had any luck getting it in Tesco.

Back from the square.
Big poster in the window, saying that new games €14.99 when you trade in any two games.
Fair enough I thought.

Picked up Mario Kart and a spare (official) wheel (game marked at €49.99 and wheel €12.99)

At the till, the guy told me I'd get €45 for Rayman and Red Steel, so it was €4.99 for the game! Result!

I have 2 copies of Far Cry: Vengeance (my brother bought me another one at xmas). D'ya reckon they'll accept these together as a trade in?

Star Lord

Worth a shot! Failing that, have another game that you don't like or are fed up of in your bag/pocket

I traded in rainbow 6 vegas 1 and 2 at xtravision, and got the game and a €10 voucher.

I really don't see why it would like, just a game to them.

paid €45 for game+wheel in Smyths (had to show my loyalty card)

Been meaning to ask,

Is the wii wheel simply a extra like, it doesnt come included with the game no?

Just from all the articles i've read they say its included but I don't like the thought of having to pay extra for it.

e.g
Every copy of the game will be packaged with the Wii Wheel accessory, which is designed to house the Wii Remote to allow more intuitive and conventional steering

The wheel is included and the game costs the same as a normal game so the wheel is free

I see thanks

You get one wheel free with Mario Kart, but you can buy additional wheels.
