Wii finally in stores?

Is the Wii readily available in your area? My local Walmart (well, one of the 4 local walmarts) has 4 in stock. I didn't realize you could pick them up without going through Ebay, etc.
 
They are hit or miss in my area. Walmart never has them, but Target has them from time to time. I haven't seen them any where in stock in Wichita (45 minutes from my town).
 
Go back in 2 hours and see if they're still there. They're readily available when the big online stores consistently have them in stock.
 
This was two weeks in a row that I saw them. Just wondering if it was typical or if I should pick them all up and Ebay them 😉
 
You go to walmart too much. people who shop at walmart are poor, they can't buy video games w/ their food stamps.
 
I went to 5 stores looking for Mario Kart Wii and nobody had it in stock. I can understand a console being short in supply, but a game?

Great of you to assume so much about me.
 
There are supposed to be 12 in every BB. Fuck that, I still can't get a healthy supply of wiifits. Greedy ass Nintendo.
 
can't believe they're still selling only in bundles. gf just picked up the wii bundle at the local bb. had to go down to a different bb and return the bundled games...

You're getting mad at Nintendo for not making enough Wii Fits for you to sell on eBay, but the only reason you're able to make a profit selling them on eBay is because they haven't made enough of them.
 
I had no trouble finding one recently. The local BB still sells out frequently but they seem to get shipments weekly which are available for a least a few days.

Duh, youre talking to Casiotech, logic is not his forte.

 
i was in NH this past weeekend. they had none everywhere on friday. went again on saturday, walmart had them, bestbuy had them, toys r us had them.
i told myself to sell nintendo stocks once they're available everywhere. now i just have to wait till it is a long term gain (one more month!)

but now there are wiis, with no wii fits. so yeah, nintendo may still be doing more of the same, get you buy the wii, but no wii fit anywhere (though i did buy the last copy of wii fit in toys r us when i went on friday)
 
I've still only see a Wii in-store only 1 other time besides the day it first came out and I bought mine. Honestly I am a bit suprised I figured by now they would be to the point you could walk into a store and not have a problem just getting one

Fixed. 🙂

If you're enough of a hilljack that driving to Walmart is 60 miles each way, then you probably aren't smart enough to use eBay, either.


Just like last year, they'll slowly creep in to existence on store shelves towards the end of the summer, then the hype will re-ignite in October.
