HMV had no support for Nintendo at all - apart from Wii dance 3 that was on special offer at £18 almost everywhere and Mario And Sonic at the 2012 Olympic Games at £25 HMV stores are not making any effort to sell Wiis or Nintendo Products.

Wii was not in promotion, actually their prices were higher than everywhere else. £ds was sold out in big stores since end of november and no new stock arrived.

it is true that this helped them to sell all Used stock - by Xmas no used nintendo console or pre-owned games were available. o maybe this may have been a strategy for a company that had to focus on profits.

Said so they are not importing any new game, Boom Street, Kirby are not available, 3DS games are limited and with high prioces and the console the only 3Ds bundles is the white one priced £219.99 , £50 higher than all the other stores.

Game instead had a few nice offers, blue wii £89.99 on line £94.99 in stores, two day of Main 3ds games at £14.99 including starfox, nintendodogs, pilot wings, Pokemon and more. the stock is all sodl out now and prices are back to normal....

I think all this came to my mind after analyzing last week sales in the Uk, everything on offer at HMV made the top ten and France or Germany had higher sales then most of big Uk titles.

I am not sure what i want to say with this topic, but I had a spare ten minutes to write something...

Well and truly Xbox country

That's the US silly.

Despite having been outsold by the Wii?!  It's moving towards the Xbox, but for a good few years the Wii was consistently the higher selling console.

We're in the present now, so Wii dominating the 360 2 years ago isn't really relevent to this thread.

I don't think a statement like "well and truly Xbox country" can be validated based on a time period of your choosing - it's a generational statement and should be evaluated as such.  If the PS3 outsold the Wii and X360 in the UK next year (and even the year after), that would not make it "well and truly" PS3 country. 

The OP is talking about the present and why retailers are treating the Wii the way it is, don't be so anal about my comment, I'm spot on.

The last 2 years the 360 has been dominating Wii here, and going forward will too. It'll overtake the Wii lifetime at some point late 2012 onwards.

Wii selling well and being the #1 choice here was a long time ago now. The country has well and truly moved onto Xbox, the way they did with the Wii against the PS2.

I'm with Seece on this one- the 360 has as much, if not more, following in the UK as it does in the US. It's madness

lol xbox360 will never out sell wiis lifetime world wide sales its too late kid, for it to do so it would need to out sell wii in every country by two to 1 and its not even doing that! and ps3 is not even in contention either

the main reason could be the nintendo wii u launching this year - with less and less wii games being made -- they may be considering making room for that console as for 3ds i dont know maybe their retarded countries can be like that

Who said 360 will outsell the Wii WW, can you not read the title? UK.
