I'm glad my Wii should be here today (or on monday  ), the nearest store that sells Wii's is Futureshop, which is just over an hour's drive away (this is driving over the speed limit at 120km/h) XD

I'm from newmarket, and I've been looking for a wii for ever camping out and stuff, unfortunately always coming 20/18 or 37/36! It's so frustrating, just I want one by the end of this weekend, or I may die haha no way. Umm, just do any of you guys know where I could get one in newmarket.

The fight for a wii has gotten ridiculous. I'm starting to wonder about my sanity. The want for one consumes me. And I just can't find one. Its not like I haven't looked, theu just aren't out there. I torn between waiting and murdering someone to get one.

I went looking at Future Shop today... they didn't receive a shipment. I'm at the point now of just waiting until the demand is not as high. Plus I can maybe get one in black if i wait  |

Yeah they do, on their website they have little banners that tells you a date.. however I do believe there won't be any point to look forward to a specific date. Lots of people have been saying BestBuy no longer holds them, but sells them as soon as they receive them.

Oh man, im so pissed! I went to rogers today to rent some games (its just at the top of my street) and I went at about 9:30. I rented my games, left, realized I got one of the wrong games (for my xbox) and went back. After I found the game I wanted I went to the counter and decided what the hell so I asked if they sold systems and to my surprise they did. And I was like wow sweet do you have anyways and the guy smilled and said yah we might. and they looked around said they were sure they had one and then I guy came out of the back and siad oh yah I just bought that last one sorry dude!! GRR worst part is, I was supposed to go earlier today but I put it off, once again, i just missed it!

Man last Thursday I went into EBGames to buy a Game for my xbox 360, and While I was waiting in the lineup 2 kids asked if they had any wii's and the guy said "Yes" I was so angry, because I bought a 2gb memory card for my psp, and a Game, and didn't haven enough anymore, I did have 400, then I was knocked down to about 200 and something. I was so frustrated. I live in LONDON ONTARIO does anyone know anything? any stores what so ever?
