yes it's been for me the past half hour I'd say

it says this

Unknown Error.

Sorry for the inconvenience. We're experiencing a high amount of traffic at the moment which sometimes causes the server to timeout. We'll be working to upgrade our hardware to meet demand really soon. Thank you for your patience

hey does anyone know when best buy's in canada are getting more shipments? Will it be next friday? ....i hope so

im freeking soo pissed off, i call everywhere and all the stores are like stop calling a few have hung up on me, i have a feeling that tomorrow is going to be the day hopefully

When you get unknown error on itrackr it means that the site is getting hammered and can't respond.

I didn't get a single page or email from it today, although I know at least one Target on my list got Wiis in today. So maybe it isn't a perfect system, but it is the only thing we got...be happy we have that much!

I'm going to hit B.B. & C.C. tomorrow morning when they open. If that doesn't work, I'll do it again on Sunday. That and keep an eye on the itrackr.

I've been having the same exact problem...i hope tommorow is the day as well...i have a good feeling about target but i was just wondering how you guys go about checking for wii's? is it better to call or go there? and what times?

Spicka:

Stop calling stores. They are sick of hearing from people and you don't get good info...

The only way to do this is to show up at the store throughout the day. Ask if the FedEx truck has arrived yet.

the only place that awnsers my questions is TRU and they said they get their shipmements in around noon, what time does bestbuyn open tomorrow??

Spicka:

bestbuy.com will tell you your local store hours.

Everyone:

The same questions are being asked over & over...please read the last ~100 messages or so to get caught up to speed before asking questions. Thanks!

-Merc

ps i dont call the same store over and over again but i do check in a few times a day to see if they have any in stock

so did anyone get a wii today? If so where and when?

I think that today was an overall quiet day, which says one thing to me....SHIPMENTS! It's been days since Philly stores got shipments so I'm hoping that we're due. I'm praying that my inbox will fill with messages overnight of the stores who have gotten wii's.

We'll see. I've sort of accepted the fact that it's likely going to be a while before I get my hands on one. And that's okay. I've decided not to stress about it to the point of affecting my enjoyment of it once I get it.

We'll all get them eventually, and I bet it will be sooner rather than later (although it still might not be this weekend).

I'm hoping for the same outcome...I'm getting out there bright and early tomorrow again. This time BestBuy first then Target (unless alerts tell me otherwise)

Yeah, I think that will be our strategy also. I think that I'll also plan on leaving my cell # with clerks and asking them to call me if they get any in. It's a long shot, but you never know. I'm also interested in checking out the CC situation tomorrow. I think that I'm done with GameStop and EBgames. They get so few when they do get them that you really have to chase the trucks and that's not really all that fun.

I don't know. We'll see what itrackr can do for me. I'm hoping that it works better overnight and is able to give me some useful info.

Hope that you all get your wii's tomorrow!

Has anyone been checking the online situation today? It's even more frustrating than the stores! Both Sams Club and TRU have been coming up as having them available all day (according to the trackers) but they never do! I don't know what's up with that. It's really aggravating.

I wouldn't even bother with Gamestop/EBGames until Wii's exceed demand. The majority of people working in those stores lie right to your face or just hide whatever stock comes in for their friends. No idea why I still go in there from time to time.

Possibly a silly question but has anyone checked or called any KB Toys? Just curious what their situation is like with the Wiis..maybe an untapped source?

hmm im going to look at their site now...

nothing all bundles are sold out....
