Anyone from Baton Rouge stalking this forum or had any success in finding one? Itrackr here has been dead for over 3 weeks. No luck at Toys R' Us either.

I got mine!

Thanks to all those who posted help in this forum, I went to iTrackr and on day two of my search was able to buy one at a Game Stop in Garland, Texas. It was their last one. I was able to get a second Wiimote also.

Much higher than the 2% and 4% we've been seeing!

Side note for central jersey wii seekers, I got alerts that the East Windsor and West Windsor (Princeton) Targets got shipments in, as well as Gamestop in the Quakerbridge Mall on Route 1 in Lawrence.

I work in Princeton! But I can't leave work just yet. I'll have to wait a few more hours.

Wii are no longer Wiiless. Snagged one at TRU. Wiiiiiyaaa. Neighbor had called and was told that they just got eight of them. Good neighbor called me and told me to get on down to local TRU at was at local Game Stop scouting the UPS delivery.

FYI - Target is hording inventory for a Jan. 21 ad here in the south bay.

For those still looking keep making your phone calls in the late morning.

i now have a wii with my name on it...i just have to wait til 8 or 9 tonight to get it...here's my story:

once upon a time....lol....i have been home all day sick with a sore throat and right around 2:45 i decided i would call some stores because of absolute boredom. First i called TRU and sat on hold for 4 min and found out they didnt have any. Then i called CC at 2:50 and asked if they have gotten any wii in today. The guy on the phone said that they just got trucks in at 2:00 and will begin unloading at 2:30 and i told him it's 2:51 now. He then said "oh, then you better get down here if you want to get one". Well i'm sick and my dad is at work so then i call my dad's girlfriend and ask her if she can take me to CC b/c they might have some wii. She surprising said yes. When we got there i asked a random employee if they had any wii. He said that they do but their being unloaded so i paid for it and got a reciept. He then went in the back and came back out wii-less he then said that they came in on the CC freight truck and they are in one of the 600 boxes so they won't be done opening all of them until about 8 or 9 and that i should come back then with my reciept.

It was almost perfect. I called at the perfect time. Got down there with no problems and paid for it with cash. They had just gotten them. I am a proud owner of a Nintendo Wii. But i had to walk out of the store wii-less and countdown the seconds until i can get my wii.

When i get it tonight at CC i will then go over to BB to get LoZ:TP since i have 2 gift cards for there that i got over xmas.

But for now i must wait........

P.S. Sorry about the long post//long story i'm just really happy lol

Still searching here... Hit a few game stops right after I saw they were avalible on the web. But others got there quicker.
I was however able to pick up a DS Lite today. Figured it would be cool to have with the Wii and there seems to be a ton of games out for it.
I am hoping the rumors for the big box stores having a "big" shipment/sale on the 21st are true!
