sorted by'WIld goose chase'? Putting your postcode in the stock checker isn't quite that.
Now at the time you had people stating back then exactly the same as you do now...too expensive....too few games...going to wait until it drops to £150 and now the new one 'NX is due in x, y or z timeframe.
I still have more games for my Wii U than I have for my PS4 bought in December 2013, and far more exclusives and have had 2 years worth of fun....whilst ironically people keep bringing up the same old crap!
Yeah, I'm totally sick of these wild goose chases...
Completely different situation. The Wii servers were tied to GameSpy's services. When that died, it killed a whole lot more than just Nintendo's games - polygon.com/201…ing
The Wii U's online service is provided by Nintendo with no reliance on a third party like GameSpy. Claiming that it will suffer the same expiry timeline of 18 months after the release of the NX is misleading.
This should be the price of the Splatoon/MK bundle by now especially after the NX announcement. I'd buy this if I could though.
Announced in what regard? People were saying stuff like this before Xmas.
I also got a Lego WiiU bundle last year. My greatest HDUK moment. I had phoned up about 20 stores and they all said they didn't have it. The 1 store closest to me didn't answer the phone. It's weird, even though it's the closest branch to me I'd never been to it. So I thought **** it, I went there and by god they actually had 1. In my excitement I had forgotten to ask them if they had the Pro controller as well, which was going for £10 at the time.
I've had a lot of fun with the console, mainly with Mario 3D World which I've 100% completed. I probably would have eventually bought it anyway but to get the Premium for £75 brand new still boggles my mind.
Ignore Bertlam, there's a reason his comments only have 4 likes, typical troll who's probably just annoyed whenever he misses out on deals.
Enjoy the Wii U, I love mine it's a great console
Exactly, I got mine much later than you and have been glad I purchased when I did.
I got the Wii U 8gb with Mario Kart 8 for £140 on the Smyths website last July, a lot of people on here thought that was a bad deal because it wasn’t a 32gb Wii U. However I simply added a £20 64gb sandisk micro usb thumb drive to one of the back usb ports and have been loving it since.
So £160 for a Wii U with 72gb of space and a physical copy of Mario Kart 8.. great stuff! And still better than most of the Wii U deals since in my opinion.
Granted I have probably since spent another £100 on 4x Wii U Pro controllers so I can play 4 player games with my mates, however we’ve had more fun playing Mario Kart 8 than anything else out on the Xbox One. In addition the Wii U was on firmware 5.3.2, so perfect for homebrew / hacks if the scene ever takes off.

Bishopbriggs one came back in stock.......... guess someone reserved it but didn't collect it!
I've reserved it and collecting it tonight! awesome!
Well I can and I bloody love it
Here's a PS3 One Piece edition:
Sony's been pretty lazy too but it's still better looking than just a standard black console:
Anyhow, good price with WWHD.
Understood. My 8 year old is obsessed with getting wii u for some reason so I will probably pick this up tomorrow but I'm grateful for your input. Cheers
If he likes Minecraft then that should keep entertained but on the Wii U it costs more (£20).
Loves minecraft on 360, but wants wii u for Mario maker etc. Thanks for comment and reaffirming my love for this site X
Nice reply. Appreciate that X
The Wii U Minecraft ain't up to date and you will need a pro controller for 2 player, so there's an added £39 if you wanna join him for a game.
We have it, we still play 360 co-op.
I agree. Even gaming sites seem to be convinced it's coming in 2016 but with nothing to actually back it up!
There's nothing to say that NX is coming out this year; Nintendo have said they're going to share more information this year - we don't even know exactly what NX is! Also Nintendo shut the MK Wii servers down after six years or so, so I don't think that's anything to worry about any time soon.
That's not to say people shouldn't wait until there's more information on NX if they're unsure, but NX may not be out this year, may not be a home console, may not be worth getting at launch (none of the three current consoles were IMO) and may not have a Smash, MK etc until maybe 2018 or beyond!
I bought my ps4 and xb1 on release days in Nov 13. I play them constantly and my wii u premium lego city bundle which I got for around £75 in a tesco discontinue is gathering dust. So it can work both ways.
Or those in South East of Scotland
That's great. Enjoy.

I can back this up with science: My dad can drink more than me, therefor, is more powerful than me.
Don't worry if you don't understand, that was some high grade smienzzzce there for ya. Trust me, I'm an expert.
