Yay Got Mario Kart Wii Today!!!!!!

reddrob36 · 02-09-2009, 07:53 PM

After finding out Walmart, my local game stores, and online companies did not have this game. I went to Craigslist. Found a local guy drove out 30 minutes to meet him. I hate that I paid $60.00 for this, but not bad considering #1 You can't find this title in retail stores, and online is backordered. And #2 if it were in a store it would be 49.99, so I only paid $10.00 more, which is the same amazon would have charged me, or a little more for shipping. Copy was new sealed. I got the version with one Wii wheel. Guy actually said he had bought 4 copies when Circuit City went out of business, and mine was his last. So I am off to play Cya!

I got lucky enough my walmart had it in, it was the first game I bought for it. It's a really fun game even tho im not that great at it yet, just got it about a week ago or so.

reddrob36 · 02-10-2009, 12:06 PM

I think this game is better than Mario Kart Double Dash, and Mariokart 64. So far I am having a blast with all the cars, characters, and the tracks!!!! Best game in my library to date!

Mario Kart has been going way higher than $60 on the internet. You didn't get THAT bad of a deal.

reddrob36 · 02-10-2009, 02:12 PM

I thought I got a fair deal. I just hate to pay $10 over the suggested retail price. However in light of how hard it is to get this game, I can see why I paid a slight premium for it. Thank goodness I didn't get totally gouged! It would have cost me at least $10 to ship it from anywhere online anyway. So that adds up just right

Wow, I didn't know it was that hard to find. I saw it for 39.99 and passed it up... Maybe I shouldn't have...

I walked into Shoppers Drug Mart April 2008 and they had a few left, but I didn't even know they carried games.

My friend wanted the game too and said Best Buy had a bunch when he went (shortly after mine). I guess the game got harder to get after that, although every store I go to I see a copy. Still $60 isn't bad, Wii games could be that price if it were a different console.

I see it all the time. I didn't know it was still that much in demand.

I paid 59.99 for mine probably because I bought it late..
