...Not Yet :(

Haven't purchased a Wii yet. Actually I've never seen one in a store to purchase. I'm currently in Germany, but will be back in PA in December. I hope to find one then or perhaps in Germany sooooon.

Got one the other day with Wii Sports and Wii Play. It's fantastic

Although anyone else found it's really difficult to buy nunchucks?

I also need another nunchuck and have seen a few in walmart and best buy but alot of the times they seem to be sold out.

I'd like one soon along with a classic controller so I can DL the classics.

Our local Best Buy has a bunch of nunchucks. In fact they had at least 10 Wii's sitting on the floor below the console display Sunday morning.

I went to the local Gamestop last night and saw 3 wii's and a whole bunch of accessories, it's one of the few places I've seen more than one wii lately.

Nice, I wish I got wii play instead of mario party 8, I saw a copy in the store and saw some cool games like pool on it.

I paid $325 for the console, extra controller and mario party 8 so you did get a great deal.

Congrats to everyone who just got one and good luck to those still looking...

I will be getting mine for the second time sometime mid next week, as it is on the way back from the repair shop as we speak. I try to stay optimistic and see it as I get to live the experience of excitement twice instead of just once. lol

So yes, I am excited...

Hey everybody!!!

My mom went to Toys R Us last week when they had that buy 2 get 1 free on games. She asked the sales guy if they had any Wiis and to her surprise he said "yeah, we have 12 of them". So she ended up getting me a Wii, Play with extra remote, charging kit, zelda, metroid, and Super Paper Mario. To be honest, I was a bit speechless when she told me, but it's in the mail. I should hopefully see it in the next couple of days. I've never played one so I'm really excited!

Man, some of you guys still haven't found a Wii? I think anyone these days should be able to find a Wii in about a month max. The trick is not to just keep running around, but to get the right tracker. B&M http://itrackr.com is the one I used, it's a hit or miss, better than nothing. For online, I prefer email/cell phone alerts and not RSS feeds and other nonsense. I subscribed to http://wiialerts.com and I have enough alerts to guarantee buying as many as the online store permits.

I finally got my Wii...It wasn't hard for me to find one in Jacksonville. I called a few places and the 4th place I called had a refurbished one. With a 1 year replacement plan it's still cheaper than a new one. Plus I got SSX Blur which is sick.
