I went into the city today and braved a total of 6 stores to ask for stock of incoming Wii but none would take a pre-order as they wanted to avoid any guarantees or disspointment.
One lady managed to divulge info that more stocks will be coming in on the 25th Nov on a first come first serve basis.
I can't stop thinking about having to get one for Christmas I seriously think I am going mad.
oooooh ... one shop let me put my name and mobile number but I have to buy a "bundle" console with 2 games when stock arrives. They are supposed to ring me and I have to pay over the phone ! Then it got me started ... well I'm going on holiday to Austria & Germany & Switzerland on 8 Dec for a week *brags* so what it they try to ring me then ?
So I had to brave the 7th shop : my mobile phone provider today and queried about International Roaming and they said the 3 Mobile Network is very global and covers all those locations I will be in. I am chuffed to bits (to be "chuffed" means to be really pleased with oneself).
I think I will sleep better tonight ..... well just a bit more than the last few nights anyway !
