This week it sold more than the PS2

Starter Packs. Are you not familiar with them?

I work in a small game shop in Scotland - and I've definetly noticed a huge increase in interest because of the starter pack. We actually nearly sold out of PS3s last week.

Actually, everything's changing - people arn't really buying 360's and the Wii is ALWAYS in stock now. We even have preowned ones that no one is interested in. Anyway, a tiny little store in a tiny country is baerly an accurate representation...

If price was the same, Europe might have out sold the US by now.

O... ok muubam, in my local game store, I go inside for about 5 mins and 2 ppl go in asking for a wii. Well maybe it's different down here in england lol.

But we may become scotland seeing as our new prime minister is now scottish.

We've had Wiis in stock since the start of July, though I'm not sure about other shops in my area. It sells well, like 3 or 4 a day depending (My town has less than 90,000 people). We're usually sent them in bunches of 12 every week and have onyl sold out once in the past month.

I'll maybe take a pic of our stock if I remember tomorrow

na dnt worry about it mate, i was just saying( i werent being sarcastic). Anyway I kno a scottish 'lass' whats the name of the area you live in m8?

 It's fairly well known that the smaller European countries haven't embraced the Wii as much as the rest of the world has.  Not just that but 12 Wii's shipped in per week?  I know some stores in America that would kill to have that many gauranteed each and every week.

Even still I'm sure you're selling far more Wii's now than you ever sold of GC's.   

That's good to hear....

Well, the UK is fanatical about gaming - but we seem to lean more towards things like GTA than Wiisports... which is why the PS3 had such a huge launch methinks.  People are very, very annoyed at GTA IV being pushed back.

The Wii it's self has done superbly here, but the market seems to be saturating. I think, anyone who wants one can just so easily order one from Amazon UK who almost always have them in stock.

We tend to get Wiis in packs of 6, between one and 4 times a week depending on supply. We're more likely to sell out of WiiPlay or Nunchucks before Wii consoles.

I come from Paisley(Glasgow) and am a "lass" myself...
