Nintendo 24 Hour Spectacular!

***wraggster*** · July 24th, 2006, 15:03

Starting Now at Game Stores in the UK, heres the details:

Q. What's this Nintendo 24 Hour Spectacular! business all about then?
A. Simple, it's a great deal, every hour, for 24 hours, where all deals will relate to Nintendo. The golden rule to bear in mind is when its gone, its gone.

Q. These offers end a bit quickly don't they? How do I take advantage?
A. If you're one of the of customers who completes checkout before either the stock or the time runs out then you'll have grabbed a great bargain! Remember that thousands of people are watching the event ready to jump on these offers - and not everyone is going to be able to do so.

Q. How do I buy a product from the promotion?
A. Hit the "Buy" button and follow the checkout process through as you normally would - if you haven't used it before, don't worry, it's easy to follow.

Q. One minute it said there were 50 units left, but the next thing I know they've all gone!?
A. The stock ticker updates as people buy items from the sale, but you need to hit "Refresh" on your browser in order to see the latest information.

Q. Can I buy more than one unit of an offer?
A. No, not of the same offer - it's limited to one per customer. The system just won't allow you to buy two or more of one product. However, you can, of course, take advantage of as many different offers as you want to.

It's no good. As soon as the clock strikes the site enters a massive crawl.
I missed out on the very last Nintendo USB Wi-Fi Connector by a fraction of a few seconds :'(

Stupid bank details. Hopefully 10 O'Clock will bring more joy.
