I just got back from BB (Park meadows in Colorado) and they had 20 of them stacked just inside the frond door.

No I did not buy one since I already have one.

I went to my local Best Buy this last Saturday and they had a load of them. Shortage over?

Not completely, but getting better methinks. Might be worth getting a couple now to sell during the upcoming holidays if there's still a shortage like they're expecting.

The shortage will never really be over. However, people are getting tired of it, and I don't see used/boxed Wiis being sold for crazy prices anymore. Maybe $10-$20 over MSRP.

Shortages, and the price gouging that goes along with them will be back just in time for holiday shopping.

bb.com has them in stock now, and not just the $500 packages, they have the $249 base console as well.

ordered one for the wife, which will pretty much guarantee I get a 360 or PS3 later in the year :)

Sadly, the commercials are by far the best part of that game.

I love both games... so much fun with other folks.
