ToysRUs has Nintendo Wii in stock ready to ship @ 249.99 + shipping + tax (if applicable). I ordered it 10 minutes ago and they still have it in stock.

went to my local Best Buy about a month ago, they must have just got a shipment in, there were about 20 of them piled on a table they had on display by the checkout.

I guess it depends on where you live. It's hard to find one here. Especially controllers and nunchcks.

Still hard to find them in madison, you can get them if you bug the store and find out when they get shipments in, but I am far to lazy for that.

I spent a solid week of calling all local retailers,bestbuy,CC, walmart, etc and the game stores, I got lucky and my wife found that a shipment just got in at gamestop. She got there by 11am and they were down to the last 2, the last one was gone by the time she checked out. Its crazy how these things are still hard to find. I wonder if they are purposely limiting supply trying to keep hype and demand up.

If I was looking for one id sign up at amazon for notification if you check your email often.

Wii won't be freely available until next summer. Demand is too high to produce so many units. Be patient.

I like how you claim his ignorance yet you can't spell "you're".

you won't be selling them for that price anymore, unless you find a retard.
ebay prices are around $50 over retail for a brand new Wii.

Which is why I said "I like". Are you that self centered you feel you can speak for everyone?

Sure sure :) . About 2 months ago I saw 3 sitting on a shelf at Wal Mart at like 1am (don't ask). I didn't know they were still in high demand at the time or else I would have picked them up and sold them at cost to some friends.

I personally love the Wii but think they could make it better. Either the motion sensors are not that accurate or the games cannot interpret the motion properly. It only gets frustrating sometimes though.

I've been on Amazon's Wii notify list since it was listed, and have never received an in-stock email.

Maybe it goes in order by who signed up first.

I've seen exactly one Wii on the shelf since I got mine a couple weeks after launch. A coworker totally lucked out when he went to a gamestop and on a whim asked if they had any in stock, SCORE he got one. But other than that still hard to come by down here.
