Nope no one around here has them or at least they are not selling them if they do have them. I did however find the LAST Wiimote at Walmart today and snatched it..

So now I have 1 Wiimote, no Wii....

Apparently iTrackr and the Circuit City backdoor site shows a CC near me having Wii's in stock as of 15 minutes ago. I called and apparently "They don't know when they get shipments and Nintendo hasn't sent them anything." Whether or not they're full of garbage guess that's one less place I'm checking on Sunday.

Yep started calling them last night, and they dont have any in...

They did tell me that Sunday is a BIG nintendo release date so probably then... Does that mean they actually have them and arent selling them?? HMM? Possibly

When the blank screen comes up, you have to right-click and "view page source". It comes up as HTML coding, and if you scroll down a little bit you'll see your local stores availability in the coding.

I just scored a wii. Woohoo! The time is 4:40P Arizona time. For those Arizonians...there was one wii left at K-Mart. This was about 30 min. ago. Location: On the corner of N 43rd and Cactus Rd. Good luck! Thanks to everyone for their help.

Dude, just so you know, a mustang really isn't that great of a car. I just thought I'd let you know that. It's actually a pretty girly car. A lot of my girlfriends drive them. So have fun driving that stick

Quote:
Most people in the holidays are just selfish idiots. The people in search of Wiis are into self-pleasure (hehehe) in video gaming. They never worry about other poor people. Wiirio has given up 2 Wii's for free to well deserving parents before Christmas. Therefore Wiirio has good joo joo!
Uhm, the point of launching the Wii was so that people could play video games? How is that selfish, you moron. What's selfish is some dickhead (like you) purposely going out and buying these systems to make a profit. I'm sorry that you're a lazy, poor, fat piece of shit who can't get off his ass to get a real job, but can tear the hearts out of children and true gamers to make money.

Have fun rolling your tubby ass around in your profits and eating McDonalds (your future job once the Wii craze settles down, if you're lucky). Wiis aren't going to be in demand forever and soon people will realize they don't have to buy the system from some loser fat kid... But you'll probably have spent your money on food by then anyway. Oh, and your homomobile

Quote:
You people who did not give up you Wii's for others should first be ashamed for yourself, and second, should stop attacking Wiirio's generosity!
I'm sorry, but did you ever give your place up in a line for someone behind you? I really, really doubt you did. Hypocrite.

Quote:
Wiirio is good looking, smart and have good friends to provide 26+ Wii's for Wiirio. How many of you can say that? How many of you even have the intelligence to acquire more than one Wii? I suspect no one here besides Zman!
By good friends I'm sure you mean the ones that will probably end up in jail in the future? Well, that's great. Congratulations.
It doesn't take an intelligent person to acquire more than one Wii. It takes a loser like you with clearly enough time on his hands.

Quote:
FYI, the Wii rush is over. This weekend, the stores plan to release massive amount of them, and on Monday you can just walk into any store and pick one up of the shelf!
That's great. So it looks like you'll end up having to get a real job now, huh?

Quote:
Yesterday and today is when EB and gamestop get their shipment. Trust me "Dead Prez" from my palm to the EB/gamestop manager has netted me more than 3 Wii's!
Uh, okay. You think you're cool or something?

Quote:
However, Wiirio still has a great tip. I have a way for you to get a Wii for 15% off family discount instead of the $250 retail price. For those who wants that information, simply message me or reply here saying

"Wiirio is my daddy"
Hahah. Are you serious? I'm more convinced of you being a desperate, fat loser now, more than ever!

Dude, seriously, how old are you? 15? Get laid, really.
However I'm sure you'll have a hard time doing that... since, you know, you're fat and have a gay car.

Quote:
Then I will forward the site and condition where you get the discount. And this no cell phone sign up etc. Strictly, bring in the code, and get a family discount!

I can only share this with the first 10 peeps, because I don't want them to shut down the discount!
Honestly, do you really think anyone is that stupid? Get over yourself.
If I get banned for this post, I honestly hope you know what a dumbass you are. I'm not mad or jealous, if that's what you're thinking, because I have a Wii. I just think you're a horrible person who needs to get a cock put in your ass to teach you a lesson in humanity.

But, I'm sure you've done that before, and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I mean, come on. Wii makes you think of a penis. You're Wiirio greedy. So, you can put that together, I'm sure...

Cock monster

PEAACCCEEEE

Walmart Wii bundle in stock nowhttp://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=5303671

Try local KMart stores
Also, drive to your local KMart this evening. You just might get lucky and might not have to camp out over the weekend. I bought mine yesterday from the local KMart for $249.99 + Tax. Stress free shopping!!

I have been lurking here for weeks now and I appreciate all the tips that I have found. This one about the Blockbuster paid off for me tonight!!!!!!!!!! I have my Wii and it is updating as I type this!!!!!!!!!! Definitely check out your local Blockbusters as this has saved me from having to hit the big box stores early Sunday morning!

BTW I am also in the Atlanta area, so this tip was perfect for me!! Good luck to all.......I am off to play my Wii!

My gut feeling that after this weekend's sale, Wii's will be much easier to find compared to past few weeks. So just be patient a little more:

Look at the reports from Japan sales:
http://news.punchjump.com/article.php?id=3653
...
While Wii lead in hardware, sales for the machine were down 52% from the week prior.
...
Nintendo forecasts shipments of 6 million Wii units by Mar. 2007


http://www.infoworld.com/article/07/...rstweek_1.html
Wii sales for the week were estimated at 93,708 units, the second-worst week of sales since the 85,439 units sold during the week immediately after the Wii's launch.

Bought a Wii today. New, extra wiimote and one of those 10k cards for $330. Not a bad deal, even though I could've waited until Thursday. My friend could've eBayed it and got a lot more than that though.

Should be in the mail any day now. I don't know why I'm not as happy as I should be.
