New Wii Fit stock coming weekly, says Nintendo UK

[mxwizard]

With the chart-topping Wii Fit already proving a sell-out across the UK, Nintendo UK has moved to reassure consumers, telling GamesIndustry.biz that "stock is coming in all the time on a weekly basis."

Fears over the availability of the anticipated peripheral-based product were sparked a fortnight ago , when it emerged that major retailers has stopped taking pre-orders - having already exhausted the first wave of units.

The update comes as Wii Fit entered the UK charts at number one this week, becoming the sixth fastest-selling UK debut ever. According to sales monitor Chart-Track, the GBP 69.99 title "was bought by roughly one in 10 Wii console owners over its first two days of release."

Worth every penny if you have kids or are looking for a home workout program mate... its definately not just a set of scales lol... its very clever and very well thought out... some of the large game makers are also looking at making the board compatible with some of their future releases of popular titles aswell... all in all mate well worth the spends in my opinion

Excellent, thanks! Might grab one next time I go in. Was considering selling the reservation on the internet otherwise, they seem to be fetching £5 - £10 on a popular auction site! I cant believe people would want them so much to actually BUY a reservation!!

it sucks just like the wii itself...creating too much demand and such short supply....i know workers in argos have been keeping the stock back to sell on ebay....

 

[kasgaroth]

These things have been selling overpriced on ebay noticed one for around £120 yesterday with £20 postage to be added some ppl must be desperate to pay so much over the top or they must have more money than sense.

You could try Amazon Germany.I ordered mine from there,loads in stock.
Took 5 days to arrive and only cost about a fiver more than list price.
If you go to the forum at the bottom of the (Amazon UK) Wii Fit page it tells you how to order with translations etc.
It was really easy.
