Good luck to all... I think Sunday's the big day for a few distributers. Guess we'll see tomorrow.
my target just keeps sayig no we dont have any,but watever is on the truck, we will sell. i really hope they have some tommorow, but even if i get one i cant play till x-mas. But then agian think about it. 700,000 wii's have been sold and there supposed to have 4 million by yeas end. The closer to x-mas the bigger the shipments!

Gamestop said they had a couple in this past Thursday but they don't expect another shipment for weeks

Guess I'll camp out Wal-Mart on Wednesday then. I'm not usually the type of person you'd see doing that but I gotta! Gotta have Wii!

my circuit city confirmed that even though they'll have 30 units that it will be first come first serve. so basically when they open just run in and get one in is what the lady told me :| so since it opens at 10 should i be there around 8 7 6? i mean whats the point of waiting in line? haha

first come first serve doesnt mean there wont be an organized line.. just means whoever is first (in line) gets one first. Imma go tonight at midnight. im tired of going late and not being able to get one. Bringing 5 friends with me too.

Same with me. I'm going to be there around 6:30 AM. The circuit city in my town isn't the popular really. So I really hope I get one.

Nobrainer... Nintendo World!

I went with my friends and just got 3 Wiis this morning at Nintendo World in NYC (48th between 5th and 6th) ... so anyone who lives nearby or wants a road trip should consider it. They are selling 150 per day (or at least that is what they have been doing), and I called the night before to confirm. It's one per customer, and I was there at 4:ooAM (#90), but they told me that up until 5:00AM you were probably OK.

So one per customer, one extra remote and Nunchuk. It's worth a trip (people in line were selling tickets for $50-$100, so if you don't get one, ask around you can probably still get a ticket.

Time, Date and Place

Hey everyone, I'd love to know a general census on who's going where, what time and what day... if you already know when your location is going to have them and when...

For me, I know my Target has some from someone who works there and will be puttin them out tomorrow.

So:

I'm going to Target, tomorrow (Sunday) @ 6:00 am. It opens @ 8 am.
