NINTENDO WII SHORTAGES!
With the release of several highly anticipated games such as Super Mario and the run up to Christmas the prices of the Nintendo Wii have skyrocketed over the last few months especially in the UK and the US. Many high street shops are struggling to meet the demands and certain online shops such as Amazon have started putting limits on the amount of consoles a household can purchase in a month.
Sony have recently taken advantage of this shortage and started cutting the price of their Playstation 3 console and have seen their sales increase dramatically.
However many people neglect other means of aquiring these items like online auctions such as Ebay who currently have around 5k units on the US site.
Another option for european buyers, especially those in the UK who are experiencing massive shortages, is online stores such as Amazon.de. The german branch of the famous store is still providing the units at around €249 which converts to around £170 far cheaper than the prices found on the high street. These units only need a cheap plug adapter and they will work fine in the UK. The delivery time is fast and should arrive in plenty of time for Christmas.
