I was wondering nowadays do you still have to get to the nintendo world store early in the morning (like 7-10 AM) to get a wii or can I go there at night to get one? Please I really need a reply on this by friday

checked itrackr.com and wiihunt.com and even more targets today have wii's in stock. called gamestop and they tell me they're getting in wii's 2-3 shipments a week now. looks like for now it will be easier for people to get wii's. checked ebay and saw new wii prices drop to $275-$315.

it's not gonna be too hard to find a wii now....u just need to know how to search.

Once I get out of school for the semester, I'll have a lot more time to look and shop. Finals are coming up and I can't realistically spend time looking for a Wii when papers and studying are piling up. lol It'd be awesome if I could, though!

people who pay over $300 on ebay to get it are so dumb. It's not that hard to get anymore.

itrackr lists the Wii's US national availability at 38% now! Thats great news considering a couple weeks ago, it was at around 8%.

itrakr lists all 4 targets in my area as having them. I've called & visited all 4 multiple times and they assure me they don't have any...

That's because they are holding them until this Sunday. They have them in the Sunday preprint. You can find it all over other forums.

When I got my Wii, I called 3 targets the night before and asked about how many they would have the next morning because I had seen an advance copy of the preprint. None of them would tell me how many they had. They actually told me they wouldn't know until they got their shipments in (yeah right!) and this was around 9:30 on Saturday night. They wouldn't even confirm it...they just said "Well if you've seen them in the ad then we are supposed to have them". I got there WAY too early and waited for about an hour. The next people didn't even show up until about 10 'till.

Depending on your city, go to your local Target about an hour before they open and wait and you'll get one!! Good luck
