Finally ordered my Wii Fit


It is like the hottest commodities in gaming industry, Wii Fit is always out of stock whenever it is available. I'd spent almost 1 month monitoring the stock at various online stores and finally I beat the rest on the latest Toys R Us stock and got myself one. Hurray.


And I'm waiting for Wii Fit accessories after ordered it from Woolworth. Even the accessories are not available on the spot.

Mario Kart from Ebay

After a short chat with Johny, I decided to buy Mario Kart with Wheel. Unfortunately it is out of stock in most game store, I bid it from ebay for £41.12, cheapest in after spending 20 minutes trying grab a final second deal.

This is the most expensive game I ever bought, so hopefully it worth my £££. :)

Update 10/6: Got my Mario Kart and extra Original Wheel from Game.co.uk. I'm ready to be vs :)

Update: 6/6 - Tradefair demo ended on 4/6 and I'm happy being at 29 place of the leader board.
