Still on the Search for Wii?

JDK721 · 12-20-2006, 04:22 PM

Me too. The only game I need now is Zelda, I got DBZ and CoD3 already.

They better not make you purchase the bundles that they're showing on their website, that's ridiculous.

OK, thanks. So you are saying that, even though you didn't, I do in fact have the option of leaving the line for a while once I get my hand stamped, right? You said that I should be back by 6, that is perfectly fine with me, but do you think I will be able to be gone all the way from midnight to 6 am, or is this unacceptable? I'm saying that because, if I do sleep at all, I'd rather do it at home (about 30 min from NWS), then come back. I'll most likely leave my car at the PATH station, because there's no way in hell I'm driving into the city on a Gridlock Alert day.

I'd stay there the entire time to be less of a hassle on myself, but that's just me

IceMan, I would not leave for 6 hours if I were you. I know the idea of sleeping in your own bed sounds great but leaving the line for that long could kill your shot of getting back on. Some people did leave for an hour or two but that was about it.

I've just come back from Toys "R" Us and Game Stop just a few minutes ago just to get a wii bit of info and obviously the guy at Toys "R' Us didn't know unless he had the computer, it wasen't where the gamming area was but I know they're getting some from the wii seeker. Also he told me that they won't force you to get the bundle packs for the Wii. So if that was turning you off from trying there now you've got another chance to get a Wii. Also Game Stop said they'd get the Wiis after Christmas.

It is still so hard to get a wii, although Nintendo says to sell millions of wiis in this year. Actually how many wiis are ready to sell in US?

My Japanse friend says, in Japan, much more wiis have been sold. Auction price goes down, now you get a wii by $250 without wii sports.

JDK721 · 12-20-2006, 07:49 PM

For Toys R Us, on the Wii Seeker for me it says 10+ instead of 'bundles only' now.

So go wait at Toys R Us on Thursday night, and you can get a Wii before Christmas!

Dyne Valentine · 12-20-2006, 07:56 PM

that's what i'm going to do =]

what time would you say would be a good time to get there? I was thinking of going after work, a little before 4pm

JDK721 · 12-20-2006, 08:00 PM

4 PM Thursday will probably definently guarantee you a Wii.

I'd say to get there at no later than 10 PM.

jeremy · 12-20-2006, 08:01 PM

yes for my zipcode (23438) it says that toys r us and bestbuy are going to have them the 22nd.

I was wondering if me and a friend should camp both places, and then if we get the official word, we will meet and the place that is getting them for sure/getting the most.

I am really willing to do anything to get this thing lol.

Dyne Valentine · 12-20-2006, 08:02 PM

Yeah that's what I'm wanting ^^
I really want a wii, my friend said he'd invite himself over when I get one

jeremy · 12-20-2006, 08:05 PM

^ lol you have bad friends, my friend is going to camp with me. They are gonna try to sell there place in line though. lol

JDK721 · 12-20-2006, 08:07 PM

I got one on eBay for $419. But I want to go to Toys R Us on Thursday night and camp out, my mom won't let me

I want to get one and sell it on eBay with overnight shipping so the winner gets it before Christmas.

Any ideas for convincing my mom let me camp out there? I'm 15

Dyne Valentine · 12-20-2006, 08:09 PM

he's cool. He got me a job so i wouldn't mind. Plud I'd force him to watch while I play

Some guy tried to do that to me when I was in line on Sunday, and some taxi driver tried to sell us a ps3 >.>

oh yeah we had a drive by fist shakking! o.o

Dyne Valentine · 12-20-2006, 08:10 PM

plus you have school in the morning =.

jeremy · 12-20-2006, 08:13 PM

lol today I went to walmart and asked if they had any wii's (because I noticed some unopened boxes in a cart waiting to be opened) and they said no, but we have ps3's. I was like no thanks lol.

But if those boxes were wii's, and they were just too lazy to open them, I would have so ticked!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But I kinda hoped that they didn't have a wii. I want to camp, I have never done it. I have waited in line for like 2 hours, but got let down lol.

Tocowujo · 12-20-2006, 08:13 PM

wiiseeker just said the the BB i previously waited at will have some friday so im gonna go there so i dont have to worry about bundles from Toys R Us.

Im probably gonna start at midnight and wait with my sister the night before to ensure my wii.

Are you talking to me? I don't have school, I have Christmas break now. Tomorrow is my last day, and I only have to go in for 2 hours.

No school Friday.

jeremy · 12-20-2006, 08:15 PM

same with me, so I'm hoping that its a weeknight, the chances of more people would be a little slimmer. I heard that toys r us isn't making you buy a bundle and I don't know where wii seeker got the info on bestbuy, but I guess i'm gonna call around tomorrow before I camp.

Dyne Valentine · 12-20-2006, 08:16 PM

@ jdk721:that's good

you don't have to worry about the bundles at toys r us. The guy I talked to said you can get just the wii w/o getting a bundle. I think that's just more of an online thing. I know EB does that too
