$250 msrp but costco offers a bundle with extra controller and 2 games I think, one of which is Zelda but I could be wrong.

In other words, the only two games worth owning for it ;)

Does it come with an extra Wiimote?

I have Zelda - and I like it...

but I tried the excite truck demo out @ ebgames, and thought it was very boring... :(

just my 2 cents...

I called the Costco's by me but no luck. Anyone else see them in stock at their Costco?

I've got Zelda, Excite Truck, and Madden....I've played Madden ONCE. Zelda a whole bunch, and the wife and I race in ET from time to time.

Overall though, my play time has gone down quite a bit since the initial purchase....which usually means a sale is in the near future. Although I'll most likely wait for SSX, Mario, Mario Cart....etc etc etc.

I had my Wii for 4 days before it lost it's luster. Sold it on a Buy It Now ebay auction and bought a 360 with the cash. The Wii really is a great system for those who are more casual (which is their target audience) but for anyone beyond that though I really think it leaves something to be desired. Maybe it's just the game selection, but personally I think it's just the control scheme is a slight novelty.

But don't get me wrong, it does definitely have a place in today's market, and I'm sure there will be a game or two that makes me wish I had one. I got tired of shaking the remote from side to side in Zelda though, I'd rather have a traditional controller.

Anyone happen to have the Costco Item numbers so I can go to one store and have them check inventory for the whole area?

Thanks.

I also saw about 20 Wii at La Habra Costco in stock yesterday evening.
