Here's a catch. I think just about every major retailer will ofer it online. But.........
think about it for a second....
Since it's online, it's not officially midnight in the West Coast, until 3am.
So, hang around until 3am and see if you can grab one. I am willing to bet that amazon, wallmart, toysrus or gamestop will offer it then.
oh, one more thing... Toysrus being the scumbags that they are are only selling bundles. So, if you just want to buy the system... GOOD LUCK. $600!!!! and doesn't even include warranty replacement plan.
anywho. njoy and happy hunting. |

No profanity or euphemisms would be harsh enough for me to describe the loathing I have for CumUSA (no offense). I get better pricing, service, and value from a random disgruntled and pissed off slave-labor Chinese guy who was smuggled in a container straight to man the counter at the computer show than from that scummy outlet. I cannot fathom how they manage to have the absolute worst customer service, pricing, and return policy and yet remain in business for so long. I remember their ty and astronomicaly overpriced classes that the used to offer, taught by retarded degenerates who couldn't tell a computer from microwave and I think their graduates used to put those crummy, overpriced computer systems they used to sell. A day when Cun_tUSA goes out of business would be enough for me to declare it an official holiday. :whip: :whip: :whip: |

Here's a first review of Wii from Amazon.com:
"See you suckers at 3AM EST!! The Wii is going to be amazing, no doubt about it."
...to further substantiate my suspicions. |

the store meeting we had this meeting seemed to emphasis Black Friday is going to determine the outcome of the company |

Timesquare will have 5000 units. I applaud Nintendo for covering the supply area of the gaming. I certainly hope that I'll be able to get one tomorrow for playing it, not like tards who think they'll pitch it at astronomical prices on ebay. bastards! can't wait to get my mittens on one of those bad boys |

It's stocked? It's sold out here in FL within over a hundred miles of our apartment. :(
We waited in line for 3.5 hours Saturday night in front of Walmart in 48 degree weather and they only had 20. We were #40 something in line. Then we got up at 6 am and stood outside of Best Buy for four hours. They had 105, we were number 111 in line. GAY. We called everywhere, there's none left :( We DID buy the Zelda game though because we're sure that's going to sell out too. It'd be even more gay if we finally did get the Wii & we didn't have the game we wanted.
But most places are restocking this week, so we're not worried. |

We brought the Wii home and played it pretty much nonstop for the past 24 hours. At 12:10am, during a slower couch-sitting game of Wii Sports: Bowling, my Nintendo Wii got angry with me.
My buddy Troy reels back to roll his ball as he's done about 300 times tonight suddenly feels the controller slip from his hand. (THANK GOD for the wrist strap right?)
Nope. Wrist strap snaps. The Wiimote flies across the room impaling my 60" rear projection TV square in the upper left corner.
Be warned: Sweaty hands + faulty Wiimote wrist strap = broken ass TV.

lawsuits coming!
and here's just a thread joking about the lethality of Wii controllers.

| quote: | Let me get this straight this "magic wii" controller enters the President's back, headed downward at a 17-degree angle. It then moves upwards to leave Kennedy's body from the front of his neck, where it waits 1.6 seconds, presumably in midair, where it turns right, then left, right, then left and continues into Connally's right armpit.
The controller then heads down at an angle of 27 degrees, shattering his rib and exiting from the right side of his chest. The controller turns right, reentering Connally's body at his right wrist. Shattering the radius bone, the controller exits Connally's wrist, makes a dramatic U-turn, then buries itself in Connally's left thigh, from which it later falls out...
...and is found in almost pristine condition...
...on a stretcher in a corridor of Parkland Hospital.
Some controller. |
