I think everyone (on GAF) who wants one has one. All the major UK stores have been taking pre-orders and fulfilling typically within 2 weeks.

It's not that hard here really. I don't know why US stores are doing this whole 'call back next week' crap.

Still on preorders in most shops although deliveries are getting much better now. You can walk into most shops at delivery time and you've got a decent chance of finding one now. Nintendo should have done a much better job supplying machines though - with the PS3 launching last month, I don't even want to imagine how many extra sales they could have picked up if there had been enough stock

If you care enough, you've been able to pick them up quite easily for a while.

They sent more machines to Europe than in the history of video games consoles and they all sold. Job done I say.

UK/ Europe has two weeks of massive hardware availability for Strikers - biggest shipments since Xmas apparently.
