Saw this when I went in to my local woolies today. Promo, official price drop or are they just not shifting them?

I guess just a promo.

There's no way they're unable to shift them, and there's been nothing on a price drop since the console came out.

They are selling like hot cakes due to the store not ripping people off with bundles.

£20 off RRP for a console?

On the high street?

Wow.

Probably best to get one now before the inevitable Christmas rush!

Why do people say "The Wii" as if there's only one?

Moronic comsumers should buy them now so they can't complain about them being sold out at xmas.

I saw this offer in Camborne today. Maybe just in some areas? (poor ones?).

And to think I was tempted to pay this for a pre owned one. Then again that was a silly spur of the moment idea.

It was still £179 at my local Woolies on Saturday. When did the offer start?

EDIT: Oh I see

I don't think there will be either. We're only one indie and we've had more than enough Wii's since Febuary of this year, the same for our competitors like GAME, Gamestation etc... I'm confident that there won't be a shortage of Wii consoles this Christmas.

Of course, never say never in this business.

Now Wii Fit is a different story altogether.
