Hit up TRU, CC, Target, and BB after work (around 5pm EST) today. I talked to salespeople in TRU and Target. TRU said they hadn't had a shipment in a week (since last Wed.) so I would say pretty good chance they get some today. Unfortunately that store is hard to get to on my lunch break so...oh well. Target said they hadn't had a shipment in awhile...a couple of weeks and were expecting some soon. I am gonna stick with my Target in the AM before work, GameSpot at lunch (they get UPS deliveries around the same time every day) and calling around after work just in case.
Can everybody try to make sure to include location when posting experiences in this thread. I think some markets definitely get more frequent shipments so somebody saying "I live in NYC and we get shipments twice a week" isn't going to help me too much.
I am in Pittsburgh and have been checking the Waterfront Target and Waterworks GameSpot if that is helpful to anybody.

Yes. The gaming department is at the front of the store and they deliver to the front.
Oh and this is the TRU in South Philadelphia and the Target and Best Buy I was referring to are also in South Philly (they're actually the only ones downtown).

Does your Toysrus have access to the back? The one in my city has a road behind it, so I wasn't sure if they would go that way. Also, you mentioned to be nice to the workers. I have been an ass to the Toysrus guys. This is because they are so short with their answers. I would like to see the box if I can. I know those guys will lie to me. I just don't want to go around back. They might think I'm robbing them.

I got an alert from itrackr for the EB Games in New Roc City (New Rochelle, NY) around 4am this morning saying that they were in stock. Unfortunately I was at work and couldn't get there till after 5. By the time I called around 5pm the guy told me that they were out of stock and to try back in 2 weeks.

Okay going off the theory that our stores are getting Wiis around the same time last week I would (according to itrackr) be getting in stock wiis at target tomorrow at noon.
Guess tomorrow is as good as shot as ever for my Wii.
