I'm from Richmond as well, half tempted to go check myself! Or maybe I'll just wait to hear from you!

We'll see in the morning I guess.

any updates? I live in montreal and I have constantly looking and still nothing. I don't wanna stand in line during the night until I am sure they will have some when they open. nor buy it from ebay as I don't like spending more money that I should for something.
BB said this friday but when I called back yesterday they said not before jan ou feb.
the only hope might be to score one at futureshop

I don't think many people know about this shipment though, so i think going around 6am would be fine. Not sure how many Calgarians will actually read this.

Dunno if the shipment applies to the rest of Canada, sorry

I am visiting Calgary and would love to get a Wii while I am here (to take advantage of the lower taxation) I however am up near Signal Hill so I am hoping The Superstore, HMV , Rogers or Zellers gets them this week. I don't really know my way around here just yet via bus routes. I am going to check out a walmart today though.

I already have Zelda Twilight Princess just can't play it.

Just went to future shop in montreal at 7h30 this morning.... and guess what? nothing! I don't know if I'll go tomorrow morning, they told me that there won't be any until january.... But I have a strong feeling that they're just lying... Anyway... I'm starting to feel depressed... I have Zelda and I can only stare at the box with desperation...

Hey Guys... I just registered to let you know this.

I've been calling BestBuys all around me (US & Canada) and they've all told me that they're not getting any. Then while still calling, I accidentally called the same BestBuy back and talked to a different person this time. And she informed me that in fact they have 29 Wii's that they're stock pilling for tomorrow mornings first come first serve lineup.
And apparently, they're not the only BestBuy doing this!

Good Luck too all !!!

Yeah, there was 66 when I added to my cart and 3 after I submitted my order.
I got screwed in buying one from the Best Buy site 6 times as they sold out right before i submitted my order (day of launch). Not today though!
