I was also looking for a Wii today, NO shops had any especially with it being a holiday weekend, No deliveries friday, sunday or today. My dad is going to check in at a store on his way to work tomorrow. - Fingers Crossed -

 

[VMK_MagicalLadee]

Hah! me too!

None. Everywhere.

Moms gonna phone evrywhere @9.

Then, we got a hopeful promise from a superstore.
Guy said they'd have 10 on Saturday.

They open at 8.
Im going at 6.
>_<

And all the other stores have no idea when they come. They come by purolator.

We were drivi9ng into toys r us and a purolator truck was coming out, I screamed. But no, nothing LOL

We have a wii. I just lucked into it though. I was at WalMart looking for a game and noticed it in the case. They had just gotten in a shipment the day before and it was the last one. The best thing to do is have your Mom find out when they expect shipments in at different stores and be there when they open that day. They are still selling faster than the supply, so they are hard to find.

What I did with my 360 was I waited in a 5 hour line on opening day (or night however you would like to put it.) And got my 360 that way, but what I would do with the Wii is go to a game stop or any place that sells ganes and ask if you could put a Wii on hold and if they say "no" ask when they are getting their next shipment and wait at their door until their open. Or if you are going to Wal-mart just show up at mid-night.

Another way to go is just order off of E-bay, it takes longer with the whole shipment thing, but if you want your Wii now just order it off of E-bay.

2 things.

In Canada, wii's are delived by purolator.
No stores know when they get the wii's, they just come in the deliveries.

I only have 340$.

To pay shipping and handling AND the extra 300$ people on ebay add, I definitely wouldn't have enough.

This is why its such a conundrum for meh.

They always have a bunch of them at gamestop, EB games, and target...

 

[AbsoluteAwesome]

My dad ordered ours online from Amazon or something.

I waited and went at 2:00 o'clock in the mourning at the local wal-mart and got one out of 15 that were still on the shelve. I guess that I was very lucky .

My April 1st was not a fool's day thanks to aeryn on the DIS. She gave me
the scoop about going to Wal-Mart first thing when they opened that day,
because they had the Wii listed in the advertisement from the newspaper.

So I was in line just after 7am on Sunday to get it for my nephew's birthday,
which was April 4th! My mother had been trying to get one for 2 weeks
prior, but I was able to get it after my hot insider tip from aeryn!

And now I'm the "cool aunt", go figure.

 

[birdman94]

i had to wait 8 hours for a preorfer for it also call eb gmaes or gamestop or cosco they get shipments once in a while eb and gs get them once a month towards the end so try those

 

[VMK_MagicalLadee]

Wow. Such stories.

Mom had been looking, but couldn't find one.
So, for Easter, i recieved 2 wii games, and a picture of a wii

The next day we went to the 12 stores.
LAST store we went to, we picked up a card.


The next day, (tuesday), I convinced mom to take 4 different numbers of places that sold wii's to work with her, and told her to phone them all @9.

EB games at this little dumpy mall (the only one we got a card from )
apparently had some.
HOWEVER.

Momseh decided to play a trick on poor lil' me.
I phoned after running home from school, only to be told that the "lady" said they may have some on Saturday. Even then there would be a line.

I got excited, and told her ok, see you when you get home.

She comes home, and i hear a bag rustling.
I look over, an EB games bag.

I was like.. what's that?

Mom goes.

I lied


Cheeky little devil.
Imunna have to get her back for that one.
I think I almost had a heart attack on that "i lied" line.
Seriously.
Mom wouldnt let me play the wii.
My heart was hurting >_<

ANYWAY.
Goota go watch antm now.

With that evil mother of mine.
See ya'll!
