Hey guys. Here's a link to another tracker, this time for GameStop. Found it on the Amazon wii discussion site. I can't personally vouch for its accuracy, but I hope that some of you find it useful.

Simply replace your zip code in the address (it currently has a zip near Merc) |

The store I work at (GameCrazy) is said to be getting shitloads of Wii's (those were the words from my boss, by verbatim.), and it's supposedly all Gamecrazy locations, not just our location.

If you look at the rest of the board it has been well established that iTrackr is terrible for EBGames and Gamestops. It is always very delayed and you do not want to ever use it with those stores. However, it works very well with Targets and Circuit Citys. In fact, iTrackr alerted me yesterday that Circuit City had some in stock and I was finally able to get a Wii after 2 weeks. My suggestion is to don't bother calling and just use iTrackr. |

same thing in daly city and colma targets. they denied having them when i went at opening, while target backdoor showed they got some last night. Looks like they're holding it for the 21st.
i'll plug the nintendo store again for those who missed the previous post... IF YOU WANT A NUNCHUCK AND REMOTE... your best bet is the nintendo store because they are sold out pretty much everywhere else. I ordered mines and got to my doorstep in 3 business days. Only $5 shipping!! gogogogo |

Talked to the gaming dept guy. Told me 8 are left right now, but they are starting to sell fast. Had them since this morning, but no one was asking for them. People started asking this afternoon, and then they started selling.
My wife is like 5 minutes away. My heart is frickin pounding!

Always call first, because if you come in and leave, there might be a shipment that comes in 20 minutes later. I suggest calling right before they open, then calling at noon to see if they had received any shipments. Afterwards call around 2-6 and get an update, and if it hasn't been sent in around that time frame, call back another day. FedEx usually doesn't deliver to Gamecrazy locations after 6-7 PM.
