Update: Just wrote a new entry on how to get a Wii in Ireland for the xmas shopping season 207.
If you are hoping to buy the spanking new Nintendo Wii and have it shipped before Xmas … you can basicly forget about it.
Why is it always like that? Nintendo should know that the demand is huge, especially right before christmas.
But I figured out 2 ways how to get your fingers on the Wii.
1. Ebay.ie - They actually have a bunch of the selling there - but of course you do have to shell out more than the actual retailer price… LINK
2. Amazon Germany Dealers still have them in stock - there it’s the same … more expensive than the suggested retailer price.
Any other ways?
I did option number 2 … and have it shipped to my mom in Germany .. since they won’t ship directly to Ireland.
Good Luck!
Info:The Wii is a video game system that no one will forget.

Hmmm, my nephew had no problem getting his Wii in Limerick this week. Although I believe he may have had it booked.
