this guy on ebay had 4 listings for Zelda for the Wii ending within 1 minute of each other at 11:45 pm on friday night.

the good news is i now own zelda for $47.95 shipped. not bad for a sold out game.

the first 3 auctions went for $47.95, the last 1 went for $50.95 with shipping. if only the guy wasnt a moron. now of course i am jealous that he has wii systems and is making a profit on those and i just hav a game with no system to play it on... for now.

Yeah, I love when stuff like that happens, it's stupid to post multiple auctions of the same item at the same time since you'll end up competing with yourself.

I think it's only sold out because people think they can make a quick buck off it. There were 10 at Target when I bought mine the other day.

FYI, Zelda at costco is 44.99.

I picked up $50 in Best buy Bucks (from McDonalds Monopoly) on ebay for $25 and used that to buy Zelda.

Havent palyed it much yet though. Im going to finish Trauma Center first and hopefully by then, the component cables will be out.

Not really... I bought Zelda 2 days before I got my Wii. It just inspired me to go after one a bit harder.

I agree. I hate COD3. teh graphics are really really bad and the controls suck. i am a fan of the series on PC and thought it would be good. fricken waste of money.


but i agree on Zelda! just saved the 4th spirit. only like 12hours into it. so far i love it. its a great game. though kinda dislike being a wolf.

still very happy with the wii system and the sports game that came with it (though list my pro status in bowling =( )
