Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was the same for the Wii...too busy ordering fast and didn't have time to look but it was 1-2 days to ship and then 3-5 for ground and 1-2 for air, i think.

For Richmond BC, Futureshop got their shipment on the 18th, which is the past monday and they're not getting any more until after Xmas.

Zellers got 4 in this morning and I was the 5th.

Keep trying I guess~

Well I just found out the alot of the Walmarts in Calgary are 24/7 so no hopes of getting a Wii from them. HMV up near signal hill has nunchucks and classic controllers, zellers has points and rogers has sd card and nunchucks as of yesterday. I bought a classic controller at HMV yet still do not have a wii.

I am hoping WWF No Mercy and James Bond Goldeneye become N64 VC games.

Hey Guys... like I posted yesterday, a bunch of Wii's came into a lot of BC BestBuy's last night. And after camping for 16 hours (being second in line) I'm the proud owner of "2" Wii's. Turns out the lady next to me was in line for a PS3. So to be nice she got a Wii and gave it to me at cost before getting her PS3.
Anyways, I showed up at 4:30. And by 8:30 there was already 20 people in line. By Midnight there were 35 people in line and only 29 Wii's available. It rained a lot, but I brought a tent. And then at 8:00am the doors opened and I walked out a happier man!

Good Luck to All !!!
