Nintendo Wii launched in UK and Europe

By redlined on Friday, December 8th, 2006 comments

The Nintendo Wii launches in Europe today, just in time for Christmas.

It seems stock is also extremely low already, with the majority of online retailers completely sold out and not taking orders. After visiting a few shops this morning like Currys it seems they aren't even honouring pre-orders from November; only those who pre-ordered in October will get theirs.

Online retailer Play also let a lot of people down by not honouring pre-orders, Woolworths made the same mistake in the last few days (but did offer £20 compensation as a good will gesture)

Let us know if you've managed to get yours today, if you haven't pre-ordered the likes of Woolworths or a supermarket are probably your best bet or if you'd like to order online the only shop selling stock at the moment is eBuyer; see more here
