Do you think all Targets are uniform in them getting Wiis? Cause I have some odd impression that they'll be here today. Someone told me they would hold them until Sunday. But target employees - corporate and local - say that they put them on the shelf as soon as they are processed from shipping.

Hmm, but I don't know. WiiSeeker says they come out on Sunday. But I don't know how much they are the Authority on it. Also, if they distribute them when they are processed, and UPS delivers inconsistently (i.e. sometimes before, on, or after a destined date) then Target having them today could be conceiveable. Otherwise, my broader assumption is between now and sunday(ish).

no wii's here so far, tried circuit city, target, and toysrus. will try gamestop in about 1 hour when their ups truck gets in

Got back from Gamestop. Fedex only brought 2 Wii's here in Athens. Some fat redneck woman cut in line and rushed in front of me and got the last Wii. Talking about pissed off now!

Also, I called Target this morning and they said they didn't have any. When I went there a little bit after they opened, they told me they sold out already.

Damn. Good luck to everyone else.

Nemmin · 12-01-2006, 03:50 PM

just called my gamestop, they havent got their trucks in yet. ill be going over there to get one soon i think

SkyZero · 12-01-2006, 03:54 PM

I have a routine set for my wii search. I check on my lunch which is when stores first open and then again when I get off work which is a few hours before everybody else but a good time when trucks usually come around.

Im about to head on to lunch in a couple and am going to check target, gamespot, toys r us, and gamecrazy in the area around where I work. Wish me luck!

i hate ps3

, dont mind the ps3 part

Nitslap · 12-01-2006, 04:11 PM

If there is a best buy in your area you should check with them. When I got mine they had let anyone who asked that they would be getting a large shipment(55 Wiis) on Sunday, 11/26. I have a feeling they are going to keep getting shipments like this over the holidays.

SGXX · 12-01-2006, 04:33 PM

i went to bestbuy and the empolyee showed me the corporate letter that was sent to their store (and probably all other stores) saying that all Wiis must be held until Dec 17 to comply with ad posting.. So i guess theyre not getting them on the 3rd.

fozzy99999 · 12-01-2006, 04:37 PM

gamestop in Austin had 2 on the way today but none in stock, no controllers or PS3s

there were ~10 in line and the guy said the phone had been ringing off the hook till he walked in @ 9:30

silverwolf0 · 12-01-2006, 05:01 PM

Which austin store did you check? I went to the one in highland mall and they had nada. Like a dozen people waiting too.

Deplete · 12-01-2006, 06:18 PM

Any news anyone? The local Target nor the Gamestop have gotten their shipments in...

thatstobadd56 · 12-01-2006, 06:36 PM

That's not proof. That's a site of speculation. Where are their sources from? We should ask that first.
