Please note that Wii U and 3DS Family products featured on the Website are European/Australian versions. This means that all Wii U and 3DS Family software available to purchase from the Website is compatible with the European/Australian version of the relevant console only and all Wii U and 3DS Family consoles available to purchase from the Website are compatible with the European/Australian version of any software.

After you have finished shopping, click on ‘Checkout Securely Now' and you will be asked to log in or create a personal account before providing additional details that we need to satisfy your order.

Once your order has been received, we will issue you with an order number by email. This order number is supplied for reference purposes only and does not constitute our acceptance of your order.

Your order is an offer by you to purchase the product(s) ordered from us. Our acceptance of your order will take place only when we dispatch the products that you ordered from us and our acceptance will only relate to the products dispatched and not any other products included in your order. We may refuse to accept or fulfil any order in our absolute discretion. If payment is taken before products are dispatched and the order is subsequently not accepted in full, the payment will be refunded for any elements of the order that are not accepted.

Price and Payment

The price of our products and our delivery charges will be as quoted on our Website from time to time, except in the case of obvious error. All prices are displayed in Pounds Sterling inclusive of UK VAT where applicable. Our tax ID number is DE132095955 and VAT number is 770211954.

Our Website contains a large number of products and it is always possible that some of the products listed on the Website may be incorrectly priced. We will normally verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that where a product's correct price is less than the stated price, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the product to you. If a product's correct price is higher than the price stated on the Website, we will either contact you for instructions before dispatching the product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection. We are under no obligation to provide any product to you at an incorrect price, even after we have dispatched the products if the pricing error could have reasonably been recognised by you as an error.

Please note that all products that you order through the Website will remain the property of Nintendo until we have dispatched them and received payment in full from you for those products.

Only payments made via a debit or credit card or via Paypal will be accepted. If for any reason any payment by debit or credit card is refused when we are processing your payment we will do our best to contact you by email to correct any error in your card details that may be the cause for the refusal. Please note that we are unable to correct any errors in Paypal payment details once an order has been placed and any orders where payment via Paypal is refused will be automatically cancelled. Please therefore ensure that your Paypal details are kept up to date - this is particularly important for pre-orders where there is a delay between an order being placed and a Paypal account being charged. If for any reason any payment is refused after we have dispatched any product(s) we will have the right to request the payment from you or recover the relevant product(s). We may charge you for any costs incurred by us in recovering the product(s) or seeking further payment.

Delivery of Products by Post

We only deliver products by post to addresses within the UK.

We are not able to deliver orders to mail forwarding, mail hotel or P.O. Box addresses.

Delivery of products by post will be made to the delivery address supplied by you at the time of ordering, using the delivery method selected by you. The delivery times shown on the Website assume that a product is in stock. If we do not have a product that you ordered in stock, we will let you know as soon as possible and provide an estimated date on which the product will be dispatched.

Once we have delivered any product to you, risk in that product passes to you and you are responsible for its security.
