WipeOut The Game or WipeOut 2???

Does anyone know where I might be able to buy either of these games - urgently needed as a birthday pressie? For a Wii or DS. Thanks!

Wipeout the futuristic racing game? It's on Playstation

Wipeout the people-falling-in-water-is-funny tv show spin-off?
It was released over here as "Ultimate Red Ball Challenge" and rebranded with Richard Hammond instead of the US hosts. Don't remember seeing a sequel.
Edit : I'm assuming URBC is the same game as Wipeout : The game in the US - can't see them developing two completely seperate titles based on the same series but it's not impossible.

As to where to buy it, it's the kind of shovelware you normally see in HMV and Smyths. I've never set out to find it though so can't give you a firm fix on where to go.

Banjo, thanks a mill for that. It's the Tv show one I want.
I'm off to HMV and/or Smyths now to check it out.
I did not realise that about the re-branding, that's why I could not find it anywhere. thanks again!

Banjo

checked the Smyths site, don't see it on there at all - doesn't mean they won't have it, but it does mean you can't reserve it and guarantee it'll be there!

This seems like an after hours thread.

searched everywhere for this game ... not to be found anywhere.
thanks for the help anyway
