UK gets more Wii stock before Christmas

So you thought North America would be the only one with a busy holiday shopping weekend, did you? The lucky folks over at Europe would also be screaming "Wiiiiii!" as Nintendo UK's David Yarnton just promised yet another shipment coming soon. After the first 12 hours of having sold one unit per second, they're going to continue their sales with unabated force.

Yarnton says that they're going to hold up their part of Nintendo's promise of shipping four million units internationally by the end of the year. He adds:

We are continuing to work with our customers to make regular and multiple shipments across the UK in the coming days and weeks in order to manage the unprecedented demand for the biggest global launch of a console the industry has seen in the last decade.

We're wishing them all the luck with their goal. At the rate that they're going, it seems as if it's not that hard a goal for them to achieve. It's just the start, after all. They'd have to build on their launch success with these kinds of promises. Spread the holiday cheer, Ninty!

Yes indeed, I queued up outside Toys R Us from 2am this morning for their 8am opening. I was 6th in the queue, and many people were turned away. I managed to get my Wii and 4 games home safely this morning!
