The UK goes MAD for the Nintendo Wii

Today, Carl & I were on the manhunt for a Wii console. ANY Wii console .... because the whole of UK stock has been wiped off the store shelves, no stock to be found online neither at ANY online store imaginable. This is all due to the mad rush leading up to Christmas 2007. It was exactly the same last year but this except the reason why its sold out in the stores is because people have bought bulkloads and (still) selling it on eBay UK for cutthroat prices to desperate parents wanting to fill their kids' stockings. Sigh ... its so sad the gaming world has been reduced to this. So to those out there who have a Wii console, enjoy your gaming days and think of us/those who don't have the privilege of getting their grubby sticky fingers on one *sniff sniff*

Still hunting, Carl & Celeste
