Nintendo Wii: UK site helps Find Wii Consoles

Demand is out of control and supply is short, so one website is helping consumers find the Wii consoles they're looking for.
While parents are struggling to find Wii consoles for their children for birthdays and grand parents make morning trips to local retailers at early morning hours, one website is helping to put Wii consoles in the hands of consumers and lessen the headaches of finding the popular system. http://www.wii-consoles.co.uk is operated by IT contractor Darren Mckillop and is helping prospective Wii owners realize their goal of owning a Wii.

Darren Mckillop said, “Demand is massively outstripping supply, and that means anyone wishing to lay their hands on one has to pounce immediately when the opportunity arises.”

Mckillop went on to say, “No one can wave a magic wand, but our website is proving very popular, and has already helped thousands of people get hold of the Wii. Stock levels are currently worse than ever, but we will continue doing our utmost to point buyers in the right direction. There are various rival sites out there, but we believe we offer the most up-to-date real time information.”

Wii Locator offers many unique services to visitors including updated stock quantities that update every 60 seconds as well as pop-up notifications when consoles become available. Additional tips for attaining a Wii once they have become announced as well as historical data on each retailer give visitors the best chance possible of finding a Wii.

Due to the success of the Wii locator, Mckillop has already set up a Playstation 3 locator site for the upcoming March 23 release of the PS3. That site can be found at http://www.ps3-locator.co.uk for the thousands who will be looking for the PS3 in the weeks and months following launch.

Darren Mckillop is no stranger to providing this type of service, as his Xbox 360 Locator was his first work in helping gamers find seventh generation consoles.
