I'm not worried about stock problems affecting me really. Not only did I get my pre-order through back in September, but I ordered the Ghetto White model too.

I wanted a white one but i thought it was a better deal buying the black since it came with more memory and a game

The black one just didn't seem worth it to me. A game I wasn't hugely interested in, storage I'll need to expand anyway, a discount/loyalty scheme that's dependent on my spending £50-£60 on eShop purchases for £5 off and a sensor bar I can just take from the Wii. Might as well pay £50 less and get NintendoLand, USB HDD and spare sensor bar over the next couple of years as I need them.

I guess, I actually got my bundle for £160 because of staff discount and a voucher i had so i thought it was a decent deal.

Oh yeah, I know it's not going to be the same for everybody. I was on a really tight budget so close to Christmas too so that factored in. I don't think either is a particularly bad choice, it just depends on how much good £50 is to you.

My Amazon.co.uk order just bumped up to "Dispatching Soon."

Excitement!

my order stillonly says processed but the delivery date is still 30th so fingers crossed it'll update to dispatched today some time.

[illogicology]

Well, mine just arrived. Fighting with it to take my Wi-fi settings now, but all looks pretty snazzy. More to come.

1. I'm sure the OP is aware of this. Since it is a "British Wii U Thread" he decided to use stereotypical british phrases as a joke.

2. I know lots of people who say "cheerio"

As the OP, I'd like to say that I'm happier saying this like "pip pip" than derogatory things like "spasticated."

Hmm, I'd rather call you guys Nigel's instead.
