Is it still possible to get a Wii?

[Crucial]

Makes me glad I went out on the 3rd. Sounds like there was no chance of getting any today.

I waiting since 3AM and was 15th in line, they had 21. Then around 7 they tell its by raffle ... soooo angry. So I didn't get one, wasted 5-6 hours of my life, and BB sucks ...

Ouch, Target was really nice. The first thing the manager did when he got to the store was apologize for not coming early. He said he didn't expect a line for this shipment.

all had more people in line then Wii's

At least I only wasted 45mins

More or less the same story as me, 3 Targets, Best Buy, TRU, Nebraska Furniture Mart, and GameStop. But I did get up at 6AM instead of 9-10 like I normally would have today.

One of the local Circuit City's only got 8 Wii's today, of course they sold out before the doors even opened.

no one in my area (lombard/oak brook) had any wiis, wiimotes, nunchucks, or classic controllers. this included frys, best buy, circuit city, ebgames (2 locations), gamestop, wal-mart, and target.

man i hate it. luckily, my brother ordered two wiimotes on amazon.com and they were confirmed. im hoping to get wii play next month, as it includes a free wiimote with the game.

I went to my secret source abotu 4 am. Some guy showed up at 5 and said they had one and it was his. It was being held for a local sports celebrity. I thought he was full of crap and then he called the store manager. He said if he didnt get it he would lose his job. I told him it was for my kids and if it was a race he wanted , fine.

He called the manager again explained there was another person outside that wanted one and the manager magically found one more. I dunno.....

My wife said in our local Walmart yesterday afternoon, they had 3 of the $599 PS3 consoles sitting behind the glass. I can't believe they were still there in the afternoon. I know the county I live in is not one of the richest counties in Maryland, but damn.. I figured there would be a few hardcore suckers up here that would bite

 

[alocurto]

I won that amazon ticket thing... I will have mine tomorrow!

 

[Chaotic42]

Wow.

The Wii is cool, but not cool enough to stand in line for hours waiting for it. I plan to get one in March or whenever I can walk into Walmart and pick one up.

 

[James3shin]

I dropped of a 2nd Wii at my kid cousins house yesterday. My first one I returned unopened, and yes I am a ebayer that did not see a profitable market. I may try for a third for a buddy of mine now.

 

[tfinch2]

This is ridiculous. I thought there were going to be plenty of Wiis to go around. Every store I went to yesterday (Monday) had more than 5 PS3s available because nobody wants that sh1t.

 

[SmoochyTX]

Dammit. I was not randomly selected by Amazon.

Me too! Overnight shipping was only 14 bucks as well. Excited to open it up tomorrow. No Ebay for me!

I think with the ebay profits on the system not being that great, no one wants to potentially sink $600.

Toysrus is getting them on Friday, but Wii seeker is saying that they're only selling bundles...
