I was told by walmart people that they only get deliveries on weekdays and Monday is a holiday so they won't have any shipments best guess is Tuesday or later.

Does anyone know when stores in Phoenix Arizona is getting more shipments of nintendo wii's. It's impossible to get one here because so many old people are retired and all they do is camp for the wiis and give them to their grand kids. Think im kidding? Arizona has the most retired people over the age of 60 in the united states. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Check the history wyatt. Your best bet is to find out when shipments are to your local store and then stick around. Talk to the employees, find a nice one (mine happens to be the receptionist at target and the electronics manager at walmart) they'll help you out.

Good luck buddy.

Are you kidding me? A 24 hours walmart?

barieuph · 01-01-2007, 03:28 AM

It's feasible because Nintendo is using carriers to send wiis, instead of loading them on Walmart trucks.

If they have stock tomorrow, you're lucky.

ALo · 01-01-2007, 03:50 AM

I think Tues. is everyones best chance....

I bought my on thurday from best buy in my area in southern califorina. Just to let everyone know that most of the game systems are ship threw the ports of Long beach and LA Califorina. I work in the ports and know that we dont work on holiday and most of the cargo gets backup on the docks waiting for outside trucker to pick it up. During this time of year they have cauasl working out the dock which mean the cargo moves slower which it would be delay by a day. I knew that best buy or target was going to get a big shipment two to three days after the holiday or three to four days in the middle west or three to four days on the east coast which I was right. I bought my about 1:00 Pm which was great. Just to let everyone to know check these store on the est. date i gave above and some people would get lucky after New Years. Good advise is to fing the nearest store to the dtore disburtive center Thanks Hope this information help you and MAY THE WII BE WITH YOU!!!!

Its Not likely that the shipment will not come in on tuesday but thurday for the west coast friday for the midwest and the weekend for east coast

Okay...so when you say, "Its Not likely that the shipment will not come in on tuesday" you're saying that is likely that the shipment will come on Tuesday?

Also, you're speaking of a general shipments, not Wii-specific shipments correct?

Immunen2001 · 01-01-2007, 04:17 AM

I work at costco too at the same time their will be no shipment on a holiday the disburtive center are close on holiday it whats in stock you may get a unopen wii and most of the cargo is ship by ship not planes cost to much and only 2 day mail is ship by plane which is still alot of 2 day mail which mean not a whole lot of room for alot of units to be ship by plane only like 120-200 units which is about four palets!

Yea, I went to Target this morning and when I went into the electronics section, there was 1 core xbox, 7 60gb PS3's and no Wiis. Its just so funny to see that its not selling AT ALL. $600? I think people would rather buy themselves a nice laptop or something lol.

Immunen2001 · 01-01-2007, 04:21 AM

Yeah same here, all our Electronic Stores, (Walmart, EBGames, Zellers and so on) all have PS3's, a couple 360's, no Wii's..

NOT only is there NO Wii's in this city, There's no CONTROLERS if you can find a Wii!
I love Wii...

barieuph · 01-01-2007, 04:34 AM

why does everyone think walmart will have wii's tomorrow?
