Amazon.co.uk restocks Nintendo Wii
When the Nintendo Wii first went on sale on Amazon.co.uk, they sold out of pre-orders in less than 10 minutes. On the official day of release, Amazon.co.uk sold all their stock in roughly seven minutes. An official letter from the Amazon.co.uk team that was delivered to people interested in the Wii confirms that Amazon got a lot more Nintendo Wiis.

Dear Nintendo fan,While Amazon.co.uk can't confirm how many it has or how long it will have them, they do know that the Wii is currently in stock.
Great news! We've managed to get our hands on some more Wii consoles and will be putting them on sale between 3pm and 4pm today (Friday, December 8).
Last time we sold out in 7 minutes and we expect this batch to go even more quickly.
Nintendo sold 600,000 consoles in just 8 days in the US, so you can bet that the Nintendo Wii is THE must-have item of 2006.
The wait is almost over!
See the launch line-up
Sincerely,
Amazon.co.uk Video Games Team
7 Comments on Amazon.co.uk restocks Nintendo Wii
"The only reason many companies can get premium prices for their products is because the online shills hype the products until gullible sheep falsely believe they can't live without this product. Then they pay thru the nose for something they don't need but feel they can't live without. See the Xbox, Wii, Ipod, cellphone, PC, and a million other hyped products that almost no one needs, but many believe they can't live without."
How did the world manage without these toys?
