-3. they might be holding them back for sunday so that everyone can get one sunday morning
-4. last 2 shipments were 63 and 43 wiis.
-5. ask if shipment with ups already came in, dont ask for wiis directly

thats all.

and what city and state is this??

My walmart too said they will have Wii's on the 6th! And I will bet one!

alocubano1110 · 12-01-2006, 01:10 AM

yes! my circuit city was the ONLY store that confirmed that they will be getting wii's on sunday, wii inventory:15-132, is what i saw at wiiseeker. the lady told me that she only knew that they were selling them on sunday but nothing about the inventory. thanks to Wiiseeker.com i found out.

lol what does ups stand for?

ftcmark · 12-01-2006, 01:58 AM

UPS is a shipping company, stands for united parcel service.

Mecko · 12-01-2006, 01:59 AM

UPS is a delivering service lol...you know the men in brown not to be confused with brown men!

I got a nunchuck today at Target at about 7:30pm. There were 5 when I got there and 0 when I left 2 minutes later. The sales guy told me he just put them out and they went in 5 minutes. - Now all I need is a Wii and a Wiimote to go along with it.

Im not sure WiiSeeker is reliable.

yo1mcool · 12-01-2006, 05:55 AM

I checked my local Wal-Mart (in which I work at aswell) and the ad said Dec. 6, 2006.

I asked 2 people in the Entertainment Center, both said about 30 Wii's will be delivered.

Yay for me!

Mecko · 12-01-2006, 05:58 AM

Ok then whats with Dec. 3rd is this when they are getting them in stock but not selling them?

SO, i've been trying to find a wii since launch, unsuccessfully. trying pretty damn hard too. i went to the black friday sale at 5 in the morning. 5th out of 3 wiis. arrived at a gamestop 10 minutes after they had gotten 6 in and sold them. various other wii-quests, to no luck. i've been calling businesses (all of them) on a daily basis and no answers, usually just a run around. so tonight, i went to my little hole in the wall Pamida and they had gotten 4 in on Monday and sold the last one today about an hour before i decided to look. PISSED! pamida of all places. had them sitting there all week. gamestop has told me "shipments coming in wed. (no wii that day), "shipments coming in either thurs. or fri. (no wiis yesterday). so tomorrow, i'm showing up at GS when they open and hopefully they will have one there for me. i'm just tired of trying, i'm about ready to lose it....happy wii hunting.

oh, and for those of you worried or wondering about graphic comparisons of wii, 360, and ps3, there is a video on gametrailers.com that has a comparison of CALL OF DUTY 3 for all three systems. i've already played it for 360 and it looked amazing, but i'm sorry, the graphics look pretty ugly for the wii. i hope the wii isn't THAT graphically challenged...

theklarinetist · 12-01-2006, 06:25 AM

Any insides on when I can expect restocks of the WII for Texas stores???

theklarinetist · 12-01-2006, 06:28 AM

been looking for the past two weeks driving my parents crazy...because my mom refused to stay up @ 12 for the launch...EVEN ONLINE....

but yeah....walmart was supposed to get some last friday...but they told me they never got any in.....really anxious to get one and hating everyone putting em on freakin ebay

theklarinetist · 12-01-2006, 06:34 AM
