pre ordered the xenoblade bundle from zaavi for £198 which i'd be happier with but it could get cancelled so considering getting this .... decisions decisions

Getting the kids a wii u for Christmas so been keeping an eye on prices.

Best deal until this was premium bundle with mario kart from gamestop for £220.

November sales coming soon so prices are sure to drop a good bit yet.

I am also looking for a wii u for Christmas so interested on good prices

Will this be the best deal this xmas? For a wii u that is

That's what I'm thinking! Do I order this as its the cheapest iv seen or do I wait it out for a further drop?!

Biding my time for an Xmas Wii U. Fingers crossed a better deal comes along.

Black Friday two years ago I got my Wii U for £179.99, it was the NSMBU / NSLU Premium pack. It was the day Super Mario 3D World was released. I know quite a few people looking to get a Wii U this Christmas, this is a great deal & I'd go ahead & pick it up if you're in a position too, but I reckon there'll be other options to come. Anyone know when the MK8 / Splatoon bundle is released?

I got £120 worth of Argos vouchers that I'm desperate to spend on a premium wii u, just know that price is going to drop if i spend them now though.

amazon are selling the wii u premium with splatoon and mario kart 8 for £260 I think. I thought that was ok but want the cheapest I can get

As always with these shifty Pixel Electronics deals...

(1) This is the EU version, i.e. does not work with your UK 3 pin plug socket and requires a EURO adapter.
(2) The reviews for the seller and WII U consoles in particular are terrible.
(3) Shipping is X amount of time, who knows, could be quick or terribly slow, good luck with it.
(4) Many on here are convinced PIXEL electronics is a young chap operating from his bedroom and drop shipping.
(5) There has never been a documented case of a successful return when things go wrong. Plenty of documented cases on previous posts like this of things going wrong and not being able to return item however.
(6) There is no phone number for the seller, not even on Rakuten - try for yourself to find one!

So buy if you wish, just important all the facts are shared for a balanced HUKD deal post.

Alza have a normal wii u + 4 games for 150£...

I got this exact bundle last week for £180 :smiley: so this price is cold

Where did you got it?

I just looked on the link and it says 250?
The 180 was through that eBay 20% off offer. I went on Spanish eBay and because the exchange rates so good and the console is exactly the same I used the coupon with that :smiley:

That's fine, but the point is that young chap in his bedroom does not accept or deal with returns and does not respond to messages where there are problems or faults. Also as he is just drop shipping the product you could just shop around Amazon France/Italy/Spain or wherever for the same product in the knowledge you will have no problems with any potential return. You will have customer service, I repeat PIXEL electronics does not even have a phone number!


I completely agree the Wii U is a great console with great games and the unit has good reviews. What I meant was the sellers review for their Wii U sales are not great, I recommend people read the reviews for the sellers Wii U sales before making a decision on purchasing from this particular seller.

Just buy a UK adapter. Big whoop.

Regarding PixelElectronics, doesn't a seller have to have like 1000 feedback to be posted on this site? Yet his sales are permitted. Odd.

You don't say, Miguel? That's the whole reason exclusives exist for consoles. So people buy each one otherwise if there were no exclusives then there'd be no point buying more than one.

Well, PS4, Xbox and PC can rely on multiplatforms considering they have 3rd party support whereas Nintendo's Wii U.. just about exclusives (the only games left I'm looking for this year are Xenoblade X and Fatal Frame) and not much, besides indie games.

2016 Wii U games seem to be:
- Zelda
- Pokkén Tournament
- Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem
- Star Fox Zero

Not a whole lot but still better than nothing.

hold off buying.

better deals from reputable retailers are incoming November!

Price now £250 - hopefully you managed to grab one if you were after this folks :smiley:

If you didn't realise some of what has been posted before purchasing, don't worry as Ratuken will refund you and cancel the order if you give them a phone call. I did this a few months back when I rushed into a Pixel Electronics Wii U deal.

And if you missed out and you really wanted the item regardless of the seller, then these deals from Pixel Electronics/Ratuken come along on here like tube trains, won't be long until the next one.

Im not quite sure what you are saying?
Are you saying this is the best price and one should purchase?

I was waiting for some good deals as I too plan to get a Wii u before Christmas.

I was holding out for the new Mario Kart / Splatoon Bundle that gets released at the end of this month although the pre order price of £260 seems a bit steep, hopefully ther will be something better upon release

gamestop are selling the mariokart bundle for £220 and you can pick up splatoon separately for £25

Coolshop.uk are selling Mario cart 8 bundle for £209.95
