Just got the Wii! The EB Games at Valley Fair (the downstairs EB games) recieved a shipment of 4 last night! My mom who happens to work at Valley Fair managed to pick up one, even after dealing with a a-hole employee from EB games!
I will still stay on this thread and try to help all you get a Wii!

DAMN. just checked Itrackr and 2 stores in my area have Wiis. unfortunately they made this update 16 hours ago. (if you wanna find out how long ago they updated that they were in stock, copy and paste from the name of the store, until right after Stock.... idk why. but it works. like for example:
EB Games
Arcadian Shopping Ce (240 S. HIGHLAND AVE.)
[Status Changed: 16 Hour(s) 4 Minute(s) ago.]
In-Stock!
but anyway. that must have been updated at like 4AM. damnit. i couldve gone right after school. i think im gonna check every day when i wake up for school.

Don't get too upset. The EBgames and GameStops around me tend to update at 4am with the wii's they had the day before. They didn't get a delivery at 4am. Those wii's were likely loooooong gone by then.

they might be saving them because thats supposedly the day where they want to sell alottt. but if i were you i would check the target anyway, unless its too far away.

I dunno if iTrackr is entirely accurate. Last night, the CC website and iTrackr ticked two CCs had them in stock. I called one, who literally sold their last one a half hour before I called, and the other said they didn't have them, but will get them on Sunday.
So, I'm trying CC on Sunday, and the rumored Mass Wii Sale day at Best Buy on the 15th.
In the mean time, I'd love a little help, my zip is 01524.

It might be worth giving that GameStop a call.

That GameStop has been like that for about 5 hours now (Gamestop Availability). I called them twice today and they didn't have any.

don't you love how random people just walk into a store and are like "hmm a wii, i think i'll buy it!" while there are so many of us who are searching ALL the time and can't get it.

man i feel your pain. i've only been looking since christmas day, but it seems so long. it also doesn't help the fact that i've already been scammed out of one online. pisses me the hell off when i thought one was on my way.
