I actually managed to get one this morning at the Zellers at Weber and Bridgeport. Lined up at 6:30am and was 3rd in line for 4 systems. A friend of mine came by after the tickets were given out so he decided to try at the Zellers at Conestoga Mall, and still managed to be 9th in line for 10 systems. They seem to be holding whatever stock they get for the flyer, so you might want to try again next time they advertise in the flyer. Good luck.

Ditto, I do get the atmosphere that the people who answer the phones are really annoyed by questions regarding the Wii... if they just answer, it'd probably free up their lines because people would spread the news, but oh well.. their loss.

Btw, anyone know if USA shipment dates are the same for Canada? I've been hearing a lot on shipments coming in the 17th, and hell.. I might as well go camp like the rest if it's true.

Well it seems nobody knows when they are arriving, but I don't know if people don't want to tell you because they want to buy one, or people just don't know!
I can't afford to take a random day off work to hunt for this machine for my wife...I guess no Wii until February....

It's not "some random day", it's the 17th.

Exactly why I asked... I'm getting 2 different response that the 17th shipment is only for USA and the other saying Canada will get some at the 17th...

Somebody want to give us a final confirmation?
