I've been trying my hardest to get one for over a month now! If anybody knows of where I can buy one from asap, I'd be ever so grateful if you could let me know.
Thanks
Lianne

For the record, I did manage to get one in the end from a shop called GameStop in Birmingham. I doubt they have any now but might be worth a try. They were apparently the last shop to have any left in the whole of Birmingham!!!!
Good luck

I HATE it when shops put the empty boxes on display to make it look like they have some in stock when there are none 
. They could at least put a notice outside to inform people that they are out of stock. I'm sure lots of people ask for these consoles every day so it would save both staff and customers from wasting their time.

I don't know about this year, but last Christmas the Virgin and HMV stores in Brum all put 'out of stock' notices up.
Not this year - It's infuriating
Actually, the console itself isn't bad but I don't think it lives up to the hype either...these things never do, do they?

Woolworths in Tamworth have them in stock...got a call this morning. There must be a good chance then that other suppliers have had deliveries too.

Which instruments did you buy?

I did suggest a big organ but Marble said one was enough in the house!

[The success of the Wii has helped Nintendo to double its profit in the six months to the end of September.
Demand for the console has outstripped that for Sony's Playstation 3 and Microsoft's XBox 360 - selling about 7.3 million units..........Nintendo has upped the number of Wii consoles it expects to sell in the year to March from 16.5 million to 17.5 million.
Demand has been so high that the Japanese firm has had supply difficulties. It is thought that it will take another year before the firm can ramp up production to meet demand. ]
