Wii in Australia thread

[Deanis]

I shopped round for ages, and eventually got a good deal. Big W were offering Wii with Wii Play and controller for free. Plus the Wii was $388, then i got a 5% discount. Then to Toys R Us for games, and to JB HiFi for an extra Nunchuck attachment (only cos no one else had em). Thankfully all shops were in the one shopping centre, and all that walking round made me more excited with anticipation... Anyways, trying to work out this Friend's Code thing, and hopefully can add some ppl later...

The longest line I was in was at JB and I was just buying Zelda, I went to TRU at 9:30 and only one person waiting. They took about 22 minutes anyway, cause the cashier was hopeless.

I'm thinking of getting component cables but not sure were I asked when i got my wii from Toys r Us when they were getting them and they weren't sure hmmmm anyone when they are??? I got some discount copouns to use

And in complete randomness I just like to mention when i got my wii I spent less then I expected and got more stuff... yes a WTF moment

yer i think that happend to me aswell, i only expeted to get the wii but then i got zleda for 70 and the wii for 370. it was good.
but in the magazine it says the target c-cables are coming out on the 14th???
but they dont look like a quality product, but nonethe less they are only 30 bucks so why not

Just had a look a round and saw prices roughly between $40-$50 and the 14th seems to be the date they'll be avaliable
