Round Up Of Nintendo Wii U Launch Prices In The UK


Today is the day where the UK sees the launch of a new console. with many online retailers still saying the console is in stock, i have created a list of prices for both the Standard (White) Wii U console and the Deluxe (Black) Version. this list only includes the console standalone and not the various bundles each site offers and i've tried to only include stores that have the console in stock, for example Zavvi only has the white in stock.

There is not a huge variety of prices and many stores do seem to have both versions in stock. so far the cheapest White version i've found was at Zavvi who have it at £244.95. the cheapest Black version is shared between Amazon, TESCO and Asda who have it for £299.
