A rumor is starting to circulate that WalMart is now holding wii's for a sale on the 28th. Someone on the Amazon forum claims to have seen the flyer themselves.

Confirmed that 4 of the BB near me will have Wii on Sunday.. I will stop looking until then unless my step father finds one at a CC and uses the coupon. He will let me repay him in BB gift cards!! LOL How cool is that?

I got a Wii today at EB Games on Mission St. here in San Francisco. Probably all gone now. FINALLY!!!!! the search is over. I have all the wiimotes/nunchucks already too.. so i'm ready out of the box! Check your local EB/GS as they had shipments today.

Ok for folks in the bay area... i called around and it looks like Target/BB will be holding till Sunday. Colma and daly city EB/GS's will also be holding till Sunday. Fry's will have them tomorrow morning w/ 3 game bundle, your choice.

the backdoor said limited availbilty for target so i called and they said "We have no idea when they are coming" then i asked for the electronic person about the 21st and they said "we never know when they are coming" I am 90% sure they are bull sh*ing me. Can anyone make out this call

ditto. confirmed.

I was just at a kmart and was looking for the Wii, I looked into the glass case and it seems they had a recent shipment of Wii-Remotes and Nunchuks as the case was overflowing in them. No one was at the Electronic section to help me, but I saw a woman in a kmart vest walking by and asked her if they had any Wii's, and she said "No." I questioned whether she even knew what a Wii was or not and as I was leaving I saw that she was a cashier, so I headed back to the electronics section to wait for someone who specialized in that section. I saw a woman finally come out and get behind the register and this is how the dialogue went:

Me: Do you happen to have any Nintendo Wii's here?
Her: Yes, actually we do!
Me: Well, can I purchase one?
Her: Yeah, they're in the back I just need to go grab the key.

And that's when a guy in a button down shirt and tie with a kmart tag was walking by and the woman had called his attention. I'll label him "MLG" because he was a Manager-Looking-Guy.

Her: Hey, we have Nintendo Wii's in the back right?
MLG: Actually, no we don't, we're going to have them Sunday though, it'll be in our Ad. We'll get them Saturday night by a brown UPS truck so check back on Sunday.
Her: Oh, sorry about that.
Me: Well... thanks.... I guess.

I took this as an indication that Kmart is also participating in the 21st sale of the Wii and is also holding stock in the back for that day. I'm going to try again later tonight, maybe someone else will be on for the shift and the MLG won't be breathing down their neck, and maybe they'll sell me a Wii.

My friend works for Target. She says that they are holding Wii's till the 21st although it's been confirmed already, I believe.

Oh, today, I bought the USB Wifi Connection thing and a Wii-mote. So I'll be online shortly. Add me

thats plain bad luck! Maybe i'll check kmart on sunday what time does it open ?

Wiirio is happy too!

Wiirio has finally sold his last Wii. After selling 26 Wiis, and helping family in my community to get the hard to get console, Wiirio can finally hang up his feet and relax. I am glad even the last one sold for $70 profit

The bigger the heart, the more Wii you can provide to unfortunate family in my community.

Happy New Year to all!

Best of Wealth and Wealth to everyone this year!

Also I hope everyone makes a bundle at the next console release!

Thank god, at least one idiot is off the streets. Wii availability must be up 50% now in your area that you're done screwing people over.

I don't screw people over. Families actually thank me for helping them get a Wii. Mr. negative cabreezy please goes back to the cave!

According to this website http://crayz.org/target_wii.php?zip=...sin=B0009VXBAQ it says that there are wiis in my area but the people at target sayin they dont have any.

you should call them and ask, if they say no then they are most likely holding till sunday

Thank you!! My weeklong search is over!! Just got home from Kmart (in Baltimore Metro area) with the Wii. The last one that they had.
So here goes the boring story of my Wii search to inspire those that are still trying to find one. Went to Target at 7:10am on Sunday before Christmas and was 10th in line. Then at 7:15am, a guy showed up and said what are you doing here, they already gave tickets to people who camped out all night at 7:00am and they just went to McDonalds to come back when store opens. Disappointed, drove to bestbuy and TRU and saw loooong lines.

Decided to go home and sleep and not worry about it for a month.

Come last week decided to start looking again. Stopped at the Electronics Boutique in the mall during lunch every day around 12:30pm. No luck. Stopped at Target 3 days in the evening around 7pm and no luck. Keyed in the code 207-25-0001 in the Price scanners (they are located throughout Target stores) in Target stores and saw none in the Stockroom either. Went to Walmart a couple of times around 7pm. No luck. Went to TRU 3 days in a row around 7:30pm. No luck with Wii but found Tons of Wii remotes and quite a few Nunchuks. Bought myself a pair even though I didn't have a Wii.

So today during my lunch break, stopped at EB store and no luck. Then saw another store in the mall called Power Gamer. Asked the guy. He said they are taking orders on Friday & Saturday for Bundle of Wii plus One game for $399. I said no because he said they wont have them in store but they are taking names and phone numbers and will call back soon (Figured that they would have guys camp out on Sunday and then sell for a profit of $100 a piece).

Then in the evening right before I left work, checked this forum on my cellphone. Saw someone mention KMart. I was like that's it, no one has mentioned KMart in any forums that I saw. Drove to KMart. Not a bird in the Home Entertainment department but saw the Wii sitting right there in front through the locked Glass window. Walked around and saw an employee walking towards the department and asked him if he worked in the Electronics section. He said Yes. I said do you have any Wii's (I have seen enough of empty Display boxes in other stores to ask that question to confirm). He said Yes. I said Can I get it? He opened the shelf, took it to the register and tried very hard to sell me the 2 year extended warranty. I refused. He tried even harder explaining that Nintendo only has 90 day warranty. I politely refused and paid for just the console at the regular price. After I got it in my hands, I asked the guy if they had any more and he said that is the last one.
Here is the amazing thing. Not one person was in the department when I bought it. Looked like everyone forgot about KMart!!

Well, I gotta go and hookup mine now to make sure it works!!

Here's what I would recommend that you do and you will find yours within 2 weeks if you don't want to camp out over the weekend.
Call Toys R Us every day around 11:50am (shipment comes around 10am-12:00am) and you will eventually get lucky. Look for lesser known stores that might sell it or call at least 3 EBGames/Gamestop stores everyday around 12:45pm. Try stopping at KMart/Walmart/Target stores on random days and you might get lucky one day.

Remember, do not pay a penny over regular price!! The supply will eventually catch up within a month or so if people stop paying profiteers who camp out and don't let others buy at regular price.

Sorry for the looooooong post!! Good Luck and wish me luck that mine works when I hook it up :-)

Is the target your talking about in serramonte?
