Oh and the Classic contollers plug into the Wiimote
so if you want to stay wireless then go with that if not just use a GC contoller.

Damn , I'm in NY. I find plenty of both. Consoles are the hard thing to come by. I think its all going to change soon though. christmas is getting closer and the stores are going to release the consoles in bigger batches. At least that's what it looks like since they keep holding them in the warehouses.
The nunchuks are going faster than wiimotes but i have managed to see them at gamestops around brooklyn, target , ebgames. Circuit city is hard to come buy. comp usa has a few also. Nintendo world is sold out at the moment of this writing, possibly to get a few in next week. These are the places i went to on friday, the day before this writing. Stock changes daily so you might as well spend a while traveling and checking places out.

We have none, no Wii consoles, no Wiimotes, no nunchuks, no classic controllers. Only thing you can find is point cards.

Ha! I was recently at Nintendo World (NYC), and there were isles and isles of Wiimotes and nunchucks! You can only buy one each, though.

All you have to do is go to gamestops around 12:00 or 1:00 when the UPS guy comes and he usally drops 2 off everyday. They sell fast though. They get 2 of all the controllers.

I have been looking to buy a nun-chuck since release date -_-'' there is none around ottawa canada, i tried zellers, eb games, wal mart, futureshop, best buy, and a few other small chains. Zellers even had Wiis this morning yet still no nun-chucks, they said they have not received any since launch (nov 19th).

I can tell you that in UK there are shortage of Wiimotes. Most have gone with WiiPlay so they are short. Im using my set of 1 Wiimote and Numchuck for now, No money lol...

Im having a hard time finding classic controllers. I mean, the nunchucks and wiimotes are also hard to find where I live but theres the odd store that carries a few. The Classic Controllers for me are no where to be found! not even any of my friends/family have one.
