where does it say that there is no nunchuk?

robpow
26-01-2007, 09:07 PM
where does it say that there is no nunchuk?I don't think it's right that it's not included, on the official Nintendo web site it says the console comes with remote and nunchuck and I can't see Woolies opening every box and removing it!

Jono
26-01-2007, 09:08 PM
yea thats right it has to have one

Wiii
26-01-2007, 09:08 PM
I didnt know that no, but just checked..."Boxing use your nunchuck controller (not included) as one glove and the Wii remote as the other, and then its time..." .... oh.... hopefully theres no stock panics on them too (!) should be cool to buy one in the high street./..

el
26-01-2007, 09:13 PM
i think woolies ive just got a mixed up in their desription.

I just checked the Nintendo website...

"One Nunchuk comes with every Wii console. You can buy additional Nunchuks from retailers for around.. "
(http://wii.nintendo.co.uk/11.html)

Why would nintendo send out Wii's with no nunchuks? its pointless.
the only thing i could suggest would be that they are cheekily trying to make u spend more money on their accessories.

26-01-2007, 09:20 PM

26-01-2007, 09:27 PM
yeah same here,
even if it dont have a nunchuk 4/5 of the sports games dont need it i think.
At least it wont be a controller at £30 i need to buy,
£15 for nunchuk, not as bad...

Jono
26-01-2007, 09:28 PM
yea ill be buyin the nunchuck wen i get zelda

Did anyone get their wii from tuesday's stock and has now got it?

Nope, still "Processing". Rang the store and they have no sign of it. Ordered at 15:02 according to the website. "Processing" is supposed to mean it is with the carriers - bet that means it's being shipped all the way from Japan!

27-01-2007, 08:09 AM

Your item has been submitted to our suppliers and we are awaiting a response. This may take between 15 minutes and 1 day. (Usually within 1 hour).

If your item is a new-release, we will aim to despatch it in time to reach you on the day of release. Otherwise, this item is on order with our supplier and should be with you on or before the date listed at the time you placed the order. PLEASE NOTE: Our lead times are guidelines only, and ARE NOT guaranteed delivery dates.

they've placed an order with their supply and it shud be with u on the 30(my estimated date not sure if neone elses is the same) or b4 that date

so its a good thing i think :)

The website now says 'Back order or Pre relsease', and when you click on the link it says:

"If your item is a new-release, we will aim to despatch it in time to reach you on the day of release. Otherwise, this item is on order with our supplier and should be with you on or before the date listed at the time you placed the order.

Email response from Woolies...now saying Wii is out of stock....bother...anyone else had the same response?

barnyb
29-01-2007, 02:25 PM
Yep basically the same thing. Have just had a argument with the guy at woolies online. They advertised them as in stock on Friday night but did not actually have any. They were expecting their suplier to gety some in on saturday but they never arrived. They are now hoping to get stock later this week to fulfill our orders but cant guarantee it.

mcwill
29-01-2007, 02:25 PM
This happened to most people that ordered last Tuesday, rough timetable was

Tuesday 14:30 - Ordered -> Security Check
Wednesday Morning - Processing
Wednesday Morning - Backorder
Wednesday Evening - Taking payment
Wednesday Evening - Ready for dispatch
Thursday Morning - Dispatched
Friday Afternoon - Delivered by parcelforce.

Woolworths seem to be getting regular shipments, so I doubt you will be on backorder for long.

How can they do that when I had an email saying out of stock, after I had ordered on Friday :evil: ?

Basically woolies customer services are crap - they don't know what they're doing.

I had the same problems last week, but there's people on here that ordered last wed/thur, that have now had their woolies wii's delivered.
Keep the faith!

barnyb
29-01-2007, 03:23 PM
what they are doing is taking orders knowing that they will be getting some eventually in the hope that you will wait and buy from them rather than looking elsewhere.

simonc
29-01-2007, 03:39 PM
I'm not sure that's the case - otherwise they wouldn't bother saying out of stock most of the time on their website.

Their online order status system is admittedly appalling though - I shan't be using it again anytime soon! At least I appear to have actually got a Wii out of it though (according to parcelforce at least) - and I didn't have to take one of these OTT bundles that other retailers seem to be insisting on selling their stock with.

You may as well take a chance though - if your order doesn't progress as quickly as you would like then simply cancel it.

I would advise anybody looking to get hold of a Wii sooner rather than later to register on that website (http://uk.nowinstock.net/wii/index.php). I was also online today when an email alert came through to my messenger telling me woolies had them available.. and i was quick onto it!

I also put a pre-order (for £20) in at my local gamestation earlier today (on the advice of others in this forum) but will just see who will supply me first since I can cancel and get my money back on either of them .

In the meantime I sit and wait (but not yet Wii).........

29-01-2007, 07:51 PM
Hi all,

We ordered our Wii on Friday from Woolies and or order has only recently turned to 'Back Order or Pre Release'
Just thought that i would warn all you guys out there that i had a really disturbing phone call from their customer service department saying that due to such a high amount of orders we are looking at the middle to the end of feb before we get ours. Even though our order says that it will be with us tomorrow the 30th. This sucks!
Better than Play.com though we ordered one through them too on thursday and they have said that it can take upto 3 months!

No Wii for us for ages! :evil:

29-01-2007, 08:49 PM
Does anybody know whether you are officially put in the queue for Wiis while your being security checked on woolies order system? I am so desperate for a Wii (will that pun ever get boring - I THINK NOT) that I actually feel nervous about whether I blooming get one or not. I don't want to be pushed to the bottom of the list because im not security checked (ordered earlier)

I played my cousins Wii and ended up off work for three days with a back injury (I seem to have overdone the bowling game) but I've recovered now and ready to do more damage to my body :-)

Fantastic forum by the way...

Wiii
30-01-2007, 07:42 AM
Tis kinda crap saying "in stock" and then going on back order coz they think theyre gonna get sum in. But I guess its just a standard website message so you can actually click buy, still lame....

Well, here's hoping summit happens today..... getting b4 the weekend would be nice :)

I ordered on Friday at 20.54. Actually got through on their call centre today and was told I definitely have one and that it should be here by Thursday. So I would assume that also applies to anyone who ordered before me. If you haven’t already received it.

cheers for that info m8 :D i wos getting worried of when i was expetcing it , ordered on same day but at 20:24 shudnt make a difference tho

FYI:

Ordered mine with woolies on monday. Its just gone to ready to bill, which in theory means they've matched the order with stock and are taking the payment before shipping. :D

So, like the others posting here I didn't stay on back-order for long.

Here's hoping things keep going and I see that "despatched" note soon.

I'm at 'Ready for Despatch' just now, except for, oddly, my component cable and WarioWare.

Does that mean It's going to be sent to me immediately?

FYI:

For those on back-order, keep the faith.

Just to confirm. Ordered mine ~16:00 Monday. It spent a day waiting "security check" until I phoned them and checked up on it and it went to "back order"

Today it went through billing and has been fulfilled, which apparently means the supplier has confirmed its been shipped.

So from ordering to shipping has been 2 days. Great stuff.

I'm not sure I'll entirely believe it until the damn thing arrives at my door.

have you tried sending them a message via your account? they reply pretty quickly

Venger

Processing. Well that could mean several things. Processing your card or processing the console. You should have got an email from Wollies yesterday when you ordered it. There's a reference number on it. If you're still concerned, then you could always ring them up quoting the ref number.
Just be patient. I've ordered stuff from other places (Play.com) and I've received the goods and my satus on my account page was still on 'order taken'

Just did that....we'll see what they say. It would seem Woolies do not fully understand the importance of my having a Wii, and the consequences for the human race in general. :twisted:

How long do they usually take to reply?

Yeah, but its all sorted now. My order's at Ready for Dispatch, which I think means that they're waiting for Nintendo to confirm that it's been sent to the courier.

Not sure what that means, when you click on the link you get an empty window.

Strangely.. When I hover over the Processing link the URL contains solStatus=DELTOSTORE so thats probably why it changed because it is heading to the store for my pickup.

I'm a bit anxious about the in store pickup, I doubt anyone who works there knows what the internet is let alone what to do with an order off it :P

For everyone who ordered from Woolies on Friday - I have just received my Wii today after it changed to dispatched yesterday.
I did ring them a few times and emailed them a few times too so if you are still waiting it may be worth a call.
Good luck for those still waiting.

Didnt get an email as the woolies website said I would but instead I got a nice text message on my mobile saying it was in-store ready to be picked up.

Went down, picked it up (printed out email instead of driving licence..no problem! :shock:) and have pretty much played Wii Sports all night :) Tennis rules.

As expected, comes with Wii sports, Nunchuk and Controller.

So there we go, the instore pickup worked well and quite impressed all round by Woolies.

Cheers for pointing the stock out Jono... :)

What games anyone else get? :P

Didn't think this deserved another topic, so I thought I'd just post it in here instead.

My friend asked about Wii stock in Woolworths on Sunday, and he was told that they were getting a big batch in this week, and they were going to be sold online rather than in stores. Couldn't be more specific than this week unfortunately, so check regularly!
