Relax. Take a deep breath. Finding a Wii is 90% mental concentration, 10% stores having one.

you looked, but did you ask anyone in the store if they had them, because maybe they keep them in the back...

EBAY is the way.

Target, Toys R Us, and Circuit City gets shipments in Sundays, Wal Mart gets theres in Tuesday. Maybe call around and see if they would be getting shipments.

My husband and I had a few days like that, and we missed out on several Wii's just from being a couple minutes too late! It can get rather frustrating, especially when the expectation before this console came out, was that it was going to be widely available and not a problem to get hold of one. It really is a game of luck, and I only have mine because of a friend of my husbands who is an avid hotwheels collector, so he is in Target and Fred Meyers very often at 7am, and he just happened to see one and was nice enough to acquire it on my behalf.

Keep looking, and good luck!

dont worry Frog i once went into GAME (UK store) JUST after they SHOULD have opened (9:00) but they were still closed...ok then. so i came bak at 9:30 and i walked in. i asked for a wii and they told me they had 20 come in today, and i just missed the last one :mad2:

So i walked up to the manager. asked him what time they opened today.
"nine"
"but i was here at nine and you werent open!"
"im sorry sir but we WERE open at 9 this morning."
"grrr"

I went back to my car and got out a parking ticket thing (you have to get one of these not to get a parking fine, when you park up).

The parking ticket was taken from the machine next to my car at exactly 8:55. so yes, i was on time, and yes the manager did lie and yes i had been cheated out of my wii!

So i basically missed out becuase of an idiot manager. but today i have my wii. i jus waited patiently...you'll get it!

There is no reason to be pissed off. The fact is they can't produce enough Wii's to meet the current demand, thus there is a shortage and the Wii is hard to find.

You should only be pissed at yourself that you listened to someone's 2nd hand information and stood in line outside best buy. The only way you could truley know if there was going to be any or not would be to talk directly with the store manager.

Dont give up, keep trying and u'll eventually get 1...

I try everything to get one, not everything. I am in the same position as you.
When I call the stores or go to the stores(almost every store) and ask:
"Do you have any Wiis in stock?"
"No."
Do you know the next shipment for the Wii?"
"No."
They don't know a thing. I can never trust store employees. Another Example:
I was at my grandma's house with my cuz, sis and mom. I told my dad that they are going to have the Wii the next day, so at 11 pm, he went to the store and asked, How manye Wiis are you getting tomorrow. They said they are going to have 15. He woke up early the next day and got there, and was 9th in line. He was so happy, that he was going to get one for me. Then the person came out and said, we only have 6. My dad waited 20 more mins. to see if it was true, the guy came back out and said first 6 people come in.
