    If this is confirmed and national then it's either an official price cut or the retailer are cold feet fire selling all stocks.

    Please support Wii U - it's awesome!

    on phone to York store now asking after buying faulty £84 one at tesco. bundles

    Update: They only had them in bundles at £175 for basic with smash bros, and £225 for premium with smash bros. apparently it might not be nationwide but i always take what shop assistants say with a pinch of salt

    Forgot to mention the girl I spoke to checked all Scottish stores stock on the computer and confirmed there was no Individual White Wii-U consoles. Hence no stock in Scotland, hope they redice the packs as there is no chance of getting this unless you are really lucky!

    Hot - and a proper likely-to-be-in-stock deal, too!

    They probably lied to you so they can grab them all themselves. (_;)

    Either that or take what the Trotter's say with a pinch of salt.

    In London Bell's Green Sailsburys, it's still 179.99 as one of the team scanned it.

    If you haven't got one yet.. what are you waiting for! The PS4 is gathering dust in my household since we got a Wii U. I think its really underrated, and has the best games, by far, of the current gen consoles.

    As the Premium promotion has ended, maybe stock is being cleared for a new model/promotion.

    Thanks for that! I was in Sainsburys looking at that very one (in the York store) and was just thinking I'm a tool for not getting it price checked. Saved me a trip back out. I assume you've mine swept all the local tescos too so I don't need to bother with the Grimston bar one? I checked clifton moor this evening

    NONE in Scotland, phoned up nearest store They only have the Wii-U pack at £179 unless you are lucky like the Tesco deal this seems to be another wild goose chase especially if you live in Scotland!

    No Wii U at tescos within 30 miles of us i'm afraid! I bought the last basic from Askham bar at 6pm but i've brought it home and it doesn't even work sadly so that'll be getting returned tomorrow. I had them ring around checking out the other bundles and its only the newer full price (£200ish ones) rather than the Lego or Basic models that are on clearance. Such a shame

    Just called Norwich Longwater and they have confirmed they only sell the Wii U Basic Pack with Smash Bros at £179.99. They also said they only have bundled versions of the Wii U Premium. He seemed to think that Nintendo had phased out the console only packs as so few sell, instead going for bundles with the most popular games.

    That is more like a Morrisons price, Asda would be £94.97.
