        Before anyone asks.... Wii Sports comes in a card sleve and not a proper case. As proven by this lucky bugger:

            As reported elsewhere, I'm sure some talented bod will make up a nice cover insert for it. Only problem is those pretty white Wii cases...

            PS: Ah ha, my Final Destination DVD has a white case.... that'll be pinched

              I wouldn't count on it, most of the time, people who submit stuff to cover sites aren't actually very good at working scanners!

                    Anyone who has access to Nintendo US online store (such as myself) will be able to order them no doubt cos they stock just about everything else US Nintendo related you need in terms of spares (certainly got plenty of replacement Cube cases from them).

                      Nintendo of Europe probably will package the peripherals in boxes like they've always done. NoA always use those damn finger traps!

                          Yeh its a worrying time. Some sources saying the most plentiful console launch in history, then the Nintendo marketing woman saying demand far out weights supply (although she would say that).

                          I'll prolly wait for VGP to get more in if I'm not in the first wave (24th on the NTSC list) and just pray its before the 8th December. Dont want a dirty PAL machine though

                            If you are going to the US you should pick up an armful of Wii points cards and sell them to the good folks here for a tidy profit!

                                Received this morning, very bad news


                                Dear Darren,



                                We are emailing you today about your Nintendo Wii preorder. We have finally been informed by our suppliers about our Nintendo Wii allocation. Unfortunately we have been told that we will not be given units for launch. Preorders were put up based on previous knowledge of getting units for launch. We have not been told when we will be getting units as the demand in North America for the Nintendo Wii has surpassed even Nintendos estimates.



                                We have also been notified we will be getting very limited quantity of the following due to shortages and allocations on the market. We will be filling orders best we can but can not guarantee shipment at launch for these items. Orders for the following will be filled on a first come first serve basis.



                                Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess

                                Excite Truck

                                Trauma Centre Second Opinion

                                Wii Remote Controllers

                                Wii Nunchuck

                                Wii Classic Controller

                                Wii Points



                                If you wish to keep your order in queue you are free to do so but please understand that we can not guarantee a Nintendo Wii system before Christmas as we are unsure when units will be coming in.



                                We will begin shipping available third party software launch titles that have been ordered as they will begin to be released as of next week. If game orders are not cancelled games will be shipping as usual. Please note that you may not cancel game orders and keep wii consoles in queue without at least one launch software on file
