Okay, i would say that the best place to get it is at EB GAMES. Thats where i got mine and they have constant restocking. i dont recommend wal-mart, or zellers(canadian), b-cuz they aren't reliable. Stocking dates always change and they dont really help you out. (no offence to walmart or zellers) but its true. if you dont have an EB GMAES near you then just keep trying. perhaps THE SOURCE(canadian) But just keep trying. The best time to go is when the store opens. If you are a student and your school is near a retailer then you should probably go at your break

I'm a huge Wii fan, but I'm still very suprised how the Wii isn't in stock anywhere, my friend is trying to find one too but he can't. I live in Seattle, Washington and i got one about 3 days after it came out, it was really easy too. It's crazy how nintendo is starting to gain power of the console's

Getting A Wii

Some thoughts on getting a Wii: If you are in the US, use the Itrackr which is how I got mine after just two days of trying at Gamestop (you do need to call and verify stock and then be ready to get there ASAP when they confirm stock). I have seen Target collecting Wii to have a weekend sale so I would agree that an EB or Gamestop is better for trying each day. I have never seen one at Walmart but I have a friend who got one there. She was told what time to call each day, 1:30pm I believe and when they told her they had one, she went straight over to get it. I had lots of unfriendly salesman who almost seemed to laugh when you asked if they had a Wii. You need to get beyond that and find the times/days they get shipments in, keep asking questions until you know.

They rarely get any systems.
That's why I usually buy at Game Stop or Best Buy.
Although I actually prefer Game Crazy for games of a general nature just not for buying systems.
