Just thought I would share with all of you who are still awaiting for Mario Kart to come back into the shops.

...You are looking at the end of May (yes over a month)....

Please note that this is for UK (well England) only. I have no information about other parts of the world.



As for Wii Fit, it is worth trying shops this Friday, Saturday and Monday (if you area is sold out) as this is the earliest a shipment should be due in stores.


I hope this helps for all those trying to obtain these two items.


In addition, anyone trying to get GTA IV on XBOX 360 should try there luck at the begining of next weeks. As for this game on PS3, not even the UK suppliers know when this is going to be available again.

I've been struggling a little recently too, i keep forgetting to book preorders then have to go crazy trying to hunt the games down - i think i secretly enjoy this part

Anyway, i've been having some good success using Argos.co.uk, you can check the stock for any local Argos store. You can reserve the item if it's listed and they'll give you 48 hours to go collect it.

I checked this on and off all day on the GTA4 release date and got lucky around 1pm, reserved the game and was playing it an hour later.

Yeah Agros is great pre-ordered on monday got it tuesday =D, they said that all the ones that were coming got pre-ordered (i got one of the last ones)

That was wii-fit btw

Gamestation have managed to sort me out with mariokart the day after launch, and GTA the day of launch... both without preorders...(was a bit skint at the times..)

was talking to the guys in there and they got absolutely loads more stock than anyone else in the area..

give them a call, you may be surprised
