How to get hold of a Nintendo Wii this Christmas
Christmas is fast appraoching, and demand is still exceeding supply for Nintendo Wii consoles. The Typical eBay price for a Wii console is £250-280, but RRP is still only £180.
There are few guarenteed ways of getting hold of a Wii, other than paying eBay price, but hopefully with this guide you can tip the scales in your favour.
1. Asda Living stores
If you live anywear near to an Asda Living store, these should be your first port of call. Asda gets a big shipment of Wii consoles, and a disproportionally large amount of these console go to their Living stores. I strongly suggest phoning them regularly to check if they have stock or when their shipments are, or just checking regularly in store.

2. Highstreet
If you don't live anywhere near an Asda Living store, then another good chance is most highstreet shops.
Here's the common highstreet stores that stock Wii consoles, some of them you might not have thought to check.
HMV
GAME
Gamestation
Choices
John Lewis
Woolworths
Boots
Virgin Megastore
Tesco
Asda
Morrisons
Toys R Us
Argos
Currys
PC World
WHSmith
Indie game stores
Someone I know were looking for a Wii a while back, kept checking Game and HMV but ignoring the other stores, I suggested Woolworths and they got one shortly after. Try going at times when it's less busy if you can.
3. Online
The problem with buying a Wii online is that they will go out of stock almost imediatly after they go up for sale, alot of people out there want one. A great way of getting one is regularly checking stock levels at a stock monitor such as Wiipreorder.co.uk. They often come in stock at retailers who are inflating the price or forcing bundles, but if you check regularly, you might get the console on it's own. I will try to post about any updates I get, but time is of the essence really.
4. Ask friends
A surprisingly large amount of Wii consoles are getting little/no play, I know a few people who got bored of Wii sports a while back, and didn't buy any new games. If you know someone who might be inclined to sell it, but can't be arsed doing the eBay thing, why not make an offer.
5. eBay
If you do decide to go the eBay route, there are a few things you should bear in mind. You will be paying more than RRP, by a fair bit. It might be worth considering waiting til around feb/march when they will (hopefully) be reliably in stock again. You should also look out for consoles that include all the packaging, and an original receipt would be optimal.
Other than that, advice I can give are suggestions for some games to get.
