Good morning, Chaps.

Now, as you all know, Professor Nintendo's Fantabulous Wee-ooh Gaming Machine ™ arrives at the White Cliffs of Dover within a week. To celebrate this remarkable state of affairs, I am introducing this thread for the rest of us charming Gentlemen to discuss the impending launch. Feel free to keep us updated on deliveries, stock issues, UK Wii U news and even excitement when it finally arrives. Nothing too vulgar, if you please. At the end of the whole sordid affair, we can tidy up and swap NNIDs.

I'll get the kettle on.

Ahh nothin' like a good brew.... make that 2 lumps for me please good Sir. A Rich Tea or Jammie Dodger wouldn't go amiss either what what!.

[illogicology]

And would you like a scone to go with that?

[Ambidextrous]

Just thought I would mention there's a pinned topic in this forum where everyone's already been trading NNIDs its highly convenient as a list of NNIDs has been compiled there. Also other PAL territories such as Australia et al will be getting the Wii U come the 30th so would be cool to hear their Wii U stories aswell

Compiled NNID thread is good, will hunt it down. We should still have a regional list though since I quite enjoy playing games with people who are awake at the same time as me.

P.S The Aussies can join this thread if AND ONLY IF they stop beating us at cricket.

Is there Jam?

Yes. But the Bees have got into it!

Lol I don't think anyone has much of a problem in beating us at cricket anymore its as if we just turn up to be laughed at, taking tips from the England football team no doubt lol

Oh noes!

I have gone with Amazon. I know it's not as exciting as the midnight launch, but I like to save for stuff like this in Amazon vouchers and I had about £75's worth built up when pre-orders opened so it was silly to go elsewhere.

I agree the only reason I preordered with game is £500 store credit from previous trade-in's

Ooh, nice.

My only concern now is delivery. I'm on leave anyway so I'm not going to miss it, but if Amazon send my Parcel with Yodel again then I just might cry.
