Most likely, Real Canadian Superstore told me next week. As well as most of the other stores I called. Ah well, I guess it's just a matter of time now.

Is there anyone that knows a shipping schedule or something for some of the major Wii retailers. I live the the Niagara Region of Ontario. I've been going insane trying to find one for the last while now.... my parents are ready to kill me if I dont stop talking about this (haha). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Fridays for BestBuy.. if you hear the USA talking about a shipment on a Sunday, we are likely Friday (2 days before)

I'd feel horrible if they don't have any after you camped there. My suggestion is, get ready to go, and when they do confirm it, go as soon as possible.

No, which why I said I'm hoping they get them. But if they do get them, it's mostly on Fridays.

I phoned Costco/Sam's Club a few times, and they always said they had no idea. One time, a guy knew that they were getting 6, but he didn't know when. Apparently, the computers tell them HOW MANY they're getting, but not WHEN. Which is either a lie or really foolish.

So it's pretty much random. And when they do get them, it's not a lot, and they sell out prett damn quick.

Thanks for the info. It sounds like a waste of time dealing with them then if they have random drops.

Am I right in thinking that Best Buy is the Best Bet now? From what I've read here Fridays seem like a good bet.
