No Luck in Ottawa since Launch minus a two week period while I was in Calgary and had no luck there. It is incredible that the Best Buy next to my work has people lining up every Friday Morning I know because I work the 5:00 am shift and I see the lineups. Drives me nuts as I wont be able to get the wii there on my lunch hour (10:00 am ) as the scalpers get them first only to sell on ebay.

The good thing is, I see less Wii's on eBay, and their prices have dropped significantly compared to a few weeks ago. I just hope we all get one soon.. I'm bummed out because I got classes again after this weekend's over. =(

Called my local TRU today (actually it's the ONLY TRU here), apparently theyre getting an actual shipment (meaning more than 5, they said it, not me xD) on the 20th. So in exactly two weeks. By the way, I live in Regina Sask. I swear NOBODY on these forums live in Sask. xDD

I have news for Lower Mainland (Vancouver) Wii hunters! a Future Shop employee told me today during my daily phone calls that they didn't get any in today and definately not tomorrow but MONDAY has an excellent chance as there is a shipment in transit on their way to Future Shops! This was all great news until i remembered that school starts monday and also when i tried another future shop they said they got 2 wii's in this morning

I talked to my local future shop (brantford, on) and they said that they didn't sell wiis at that location.... was that a flat out lie like I exspect or do they just not sell them in some places?

It is confirmed that a shipment of wii is in transit to Future Shops in the Lower Mainland. Try all this week. Im thinking tomorrow because i was told tghey were in transit yesterday and it doesn't take 2 days to get to the Lower Mainland from Washington.

My Wii should be here tomorrow. Damn USPS, it was shipped on December 29th and it's taking 'till January 8th to get here, since when is that 4-6 days? >_>

Anyways, I'll just pretend it shipped last Friday with overnight shipping. Haha :P

I don't want to go looking for the thread, but Wii Sports won't be bundled forever. Waiting will help because there will be a price drop (that's probably when Wii Sports won't be bundled anymore), there will probably be a black Wii available (possibly more colors).. I'm considering waiting, but I got classes nowadays, so I'm pretty much forced to make this choice.
