I get a Wii Alert...and by the time I answer it it's gone.
I find one on craigslist that's not horrendously overpriced..and by
the time I answer it's gone.
I go to Wal Mart and they have no idea when more are coming.
I call Gamespot and they may have some in three weeks.
I could always pay $350 for it on ebay....NOT.
I have never seen a mass product so hard to find like this before.
Think of how much money Nintendo is losing in all of these would-be
customers. I WANT MY WII WII.

I must be living right, then - in early November, I walked into a
GameStop near where I work and they had them in stock for $250.
(On the other hand, I never saw a Wii during all of 2007 in any of the
"big stores" such as Best Buy or Wal-Mart.)

I got my Wii about a month after it came out because I was hanging out a
Hooters and one of the waitresses boyfriends came in was gonna wait in
line for one at midnight. He had another friend with him who was just
gonna wait in line for the hell of it, so I gave that other friend $300
(let him keep the change) and, lo and behold, when 12:30 rolls around
they come back in to Hooters and I got me a Wii. |

You're way too trustful, which is a good thing but can be a bad thing
as well

Best Buys recieve their wii's during the week but put them out on the
beginning of their next sales week which is a sunday. You go on
saturday and just ask someone there whether they have any they are
putting out on sunday. I bought 2 for family over the holiday season
this way (seeing as I have had mine since launch).
The sales people seem to like being vague about how many they actually
have, but if you know they have any just go to BB about an hour before
the store opens the next day.
thats if you are serious about getting one of course. I have no
sympathy for the person who wanders in at 3 in the afternoon looking
for one and then bitches its not fair. |
