Great saving on a fantastic game!
Have you heard of Guitar Hero? If not check it out - it’s one of the most fun games available on the Wii. It’s quite expensive at £70, but you do get a wireless guitar/controller for your money.
Just for you, I have tracked down a great offer, saving you £10! Order now while stocks last at this price..
Guitar Hero 3 plus wireless guitar - SAVE £10!
It seems that the tide may have turned - look at all the places that have bundles in stock currently! Amazon seems to still be the best place to get just the console - check regularly as they have stock most days currently.

Thank you for the great advice! I ordered my Wii just now and your instructions were perfect. I had my doubts about going through the process not knowing the language, but I’m glad I did. I’ve been searching for a Wii for weeks now!

yay! i was really starting to get worried about being able to find a Wii for my little boy, or that i’d have to pay £100+ over the odds (like some of the ripoff merchants are charging, on ebay and other sites). but even i, a dumb blond lol, managed to place my order.
thanks again! xxx

Just ordered Wii from Germany so fingers crossed all ok. Bit nervous incase it doesn’t work etc what do I do then?!!!! One point for those about to do the same - the german site doesn’t offer Maestro as a payment option. Had an e mail reply confirming order (I think - as ofcourse it’s in German!)
November 5th, 2007 at 10:23 am
Yeah! Big thanks - just ordered mine (hope it works!!!!) So nice to stop searching and searching……

I prefer a UK version with UK power supply. Buying from eBay may be more expensive but I get the UK version and know there wont be any “problems” with my insurance if my house caught fire due to a faulty power supply.

Molly, good point, I’ll update the listing. UK orders can only be placed using a Credit Card (Visa, Mastercard).
Thomas, Kate, Molly, Ellie - great to hear you managed to place your order. A weight off your mind, eh?
November 5th, 2007 at 10:35 am
Just ordered mine, seemed really easy (hope it works). Nice to be able to stop looking now.
November 5th, 2007 at 10:37 am

Wow it’s great to see so many people using the guide!
Richard, thanks also for posting the email. Just in case anyone wonders, this is what the first section says:
“Thank you for your order. We send you shortly a confirmation by E-Mail.

Of course without additional forwarding expenses for it!”
According to babelfish translation at least!

I have followed the advice and things seem to be flowing. It’s a pity that the UK market always suffers so much from shortages in the run up to Xmas and you can purchase relatively freely from europe. I checked just now and the Amazon France site had 9 in stock. In case you get stuck in any translation issues try this link:- http://www.dictionary.com/translate/

Hi there
Just wanted to say I ordered 1 from amazon Germany last Monday and it arrived on Thursday, everything works with no problems and just needed a shaver plug adaptor to get it working everything in english and simple plug and play, go for it.
