May your wiimote go flying from your hands and smash into your TV.

Ummm, why the hell are you hanging around BB, CC, etc. when you have a wii at home? At least when we get ours we'll actually play it. Jackass.

wiimoter ignorant and purely bitchy remarks aside (who knows why he is harrassing everyone. Maybe he doesn't actually have one! lol) Does anyone have any useful information for when wiis will be available next?

Dude. Why are you here giving us shit? GO PLAY YOUR WII!!!

Seriously, for somebody who loves it so much and thinks they are so much better than everyone else for having it, you sure don't seem to play it much.

What did, you play wii sports for five minutes tonight and wear yourself out? Have you been sitting on your ass so much that your thumbs are the only part of your body that is fit? Or did mommy and daddy say "no more wii tonight" and send you to bed?

Please people. Ignore the little loser wasting his life. Answer my question. I actually would really like one, so lets ignore him. Let him post his pettiness, but ignore him.

I was ignoring him until he kept posting and posting and posting. He's been trolling around here all night long and he supposedly has a wii! How could lurking around here acting like an ass possibly be more entertaining than playing a new system?

IMO, the only thing worse than not having a wii is having one and not playing it!

True, but what do you do with a child haveing a tempertantrum? Ignore them and they will tire them selves out. Same goes for this piece of work here. Chunk, we don't have target in Canada.

Looky who jumped offline!

Okay, now that that's over let's get back to the issue at hand.

What I've discovered is that for Philly ALL stores got shipments last Tuesday/Wednesday and haven't had anything since. That tells me something about Nintendo shipments. They don't seem to ship to BB one day and CC another, but they seem to ship to all stores in the same area at once.

I have to go back to work on Tuesday, so my days of roaming from store to store are over. My new strategy will be to wait for itrackr to show that a Target near me has gotten them and then to haul ass over there and start hitting up all of the stores, assuming that if Target has gotten them then it's a matter of time before they get them too! We'll see how it works. I think that Philly is probably due early next week.

Not as many from what I understand. Doesn't Canada have a good number of them?

No. Nowhere has a good number of them. If Canada did, I wouldn't be here asking for help for shipment dates lol

Is anybody even going to try tomorrow? I can't believe that Best Buy is supposed to have a PS3 sale tomorrow. I heard they were supposed to have a minimum of 25 units. I don't think 25 people will even go in my area. There will probably be more people hoping that they might have the Wii there. I wonder why corporate hasn't figured out that the Wii is in more demand than the PS3.

Sony has to try lol. So much money spent developing it. They have to try and make some more of it back.

I think that they probably have realized that, however they can get a reliable stock of PS3's whereas wii's are so in demand that they probably couldn't get enough in to even make it worth their while holding them. They could get 25+ PS3's, no way they could get that many wii's at every store.

I don't think that I'm going to try tomorrow. I went to each of the stores today after they were due for UPS delivery and didn't come away with anything. The BB people swore up and down to me that they weren't holding anything in the back (and I asked multiple people). Nobody delivers tomorrow so, quite frankly, I don't see the point. Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday are the best bets, IMO.

I hear Sony is having trouble making them. A diode required for the Blu-Ray player inside is hard and constly to make, where as wii, is easier to make.
