my journey is soo annoying i wanted a wii when it came out on launch i told my mum and dad and they said dont get one now when it comes out cus they wont have any in stock so i waited after christmas (which i was on holiday!!! nice!!! ) i came back and my mum took me to GAME the woman said behind the counter that they will have some in stock and its a first come first served so we had to go early so a week after and my mum went into game on the day she said really early just before it opened and my mum waits in the line and then they said that there is none in stock for the wii. which was strange because she said that they were getting them in stock on that day.

so i go online to currys, dixons, argos, other online stores for brand new wiis and none in stock so the best deal i could get was to wait about 10-40 weeks for one including games.

so im still waiting for anything or any news about wiis,

i contacted GAME and the official wii website and they said:

wii official site: Hello and thank you for contacting Nintendo,

Normally, we would be able to provide a specific answer for you. However, the
overwhelming response to our new console has been such that we are only able to
concentrate on those consumers within our own region--namely, the United States,
Canada, Latin America, and corresponding territories.
united states and that shouldnt the U.K be included into that list i mean come on! even though its not a part of America and others it should be included in the list

so does that mean we are like at the bottom of the list coming to U.S

and Game said:

we are very sorry to hear your mess but we dont exactly know when stocks come in.

so i mean im troubled i need help i want a new wii not a old one and please help any comments or anything.

Pretty sad, I've got a controller and a nunchuck, but no wii! Anyone have any idea when they are gonna ship more? I'm only interested in buying mine from Circuit City.

According to itrackr, no one in my area has gotten any since the 21st!

I only buy from CC if they have a great sale. Most of the time I buy from Bestbuy because they give more instant rebates compared to mostly mail-in rebates of circuit city.

Why do you "only" want to buy from CC? The $40 coupon doesn't work for gaming hardware. Do you have other coupons or gift cards? If gift cards, you could use them for games and get the console from whereever you can find one.

LOL, took you a while even with connections to get one and had to stand in line at 4:45am!! Just pulling your leg, hope you are having fun with your Wii!

Yup, got $350.00 in gift cards and couldn't get cash instead.... so it's CC or no Wii for me at this point. I could save up the cash but that would take too long.

hey guys,

i still havent found any its !unbeleivable! even though my email i got from wii's official website about U.S being the main one your still having a problem even though theres more being sent to you! but i mean why? they do this every time something comes out they dont send enough consoles, games, etc to the countries its advertised in. theres only 1 person i know and hes friend/dad/other works in currys and he got his a week ago (so annoying and unfair )
thats the only person i know that has a wii.

It seems like this thread is dying since most people got their the last two Sundays I think.

But I wanted to post that I finally got mine today since I've been following this thread since the first few pages.

I went in Walmart in Washington, NC around 3:15 today and they had two just sitting on the shelf. I almost fainted!

Now I'm home and just setting it up!

Good luck to everyone still looking, and thanks to everybody's help and encouragement in this thread!

Ebgames.com has a two Wii bundles you can choose from. A friend ordered a similar bundle last month and received it 1 week before the advertised release date. Sure beats driving around and getting frustrated.
