margot Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 You should be able to find a Wii in any Fry's electronic store. Link to comment
J-Stop Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I heard that additional wiis will not be available until march, im looking for either confirmation or contradiction to that…. Well, it's only what "analysts" have said. Nintendo never made any statement of the sort. Until Nintendo actually says that more Wiis won't be available until [x] month, consider everything the analyst said as a big pile of made up shit. This also applies to Sony and the PS3 as well (where they claim PS3's wont be coming until late next year, when you can find them on shelves now). Now I'm not saying you'll be able to go into, like, Target and just pick one up at your leisure, though. That's a whole different story. You should be able to find a Wii in any Fry's electronic store. That's like saying you can find one at Circuit City, Best Buy, Target, or Toys 'R Us. It all depends on what area you live in and how big demand is in that area. Like I was saying about the PS3, some locations are chalk full of them, and I wouldn't doubt some places still have Wiis laying around where demand isn't so great. Link to comment

J-Stop Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Those stores, too. I just happen to enjoy Fry's the most. My post wasn't referring to the stores, but the location around them. Such as some stores in Virgina have them, but Pennsylvania is pretty much dry as a bone. Link to comment
Arcane Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 GO TO TARGET RIGHT NOW. Well, maybe not now, because they're probably sold out by now. But I just bought a Wii today at Target. Use this site: http://www.ps3seeker.com/wii/ . It helped me out a lot. I called two Target's today, one was already sold out by 11 am when I called, and the other one still had probably 8 or 9 units left. Link to comment
Svenska Aeroplan Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 From what I hear, you have to wait outside of stores before they open on days that they get shipments. That way you get one before anyone else. Link to comment

That way you get one before anyone else. I don't think that's going to be so much of a problem anymore now that Christmas is over. Like I said, I just bought one at Target today and I didn't have to stand in line or anything. I just went in and got one. Link to comment
J-Stop Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I don't think that's going to be so much of a problem anymore now that Christmas is over. And with that out of the way, the bargain bloodhounds known as "parents" are back in their cages until next Christmas season. Link to comment

Gundampilotspaz Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Wii Available for Purchase 12/29: The Nintendo Wii will again be available for purchase on Amazon.com on 12/29, Friday morning, at some point between 7am and 11am PST. We will be limiting purchases to one per household. We anticipate that we will sell through our inventory very quickly as demand for this product continues to be very high. At this time, we do not have any information on future Nintendo Wii offers, but we will post updates on future availability on this page. Link to comment

Which means anyone who isn't shopping for a Wii on Amazon needs to get it done before 7am. The last two times a Wii went on sale (and their 360 sale), customers literately crashed the site for a few hours due to all the traffic. If anyone wants a Wii from Amazon, do not sleep in and expect to get one at 10 in the morning. Link to comment

stranger Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 it really shouldn't be too difficult getting a Wii anymore... I saw 3 (i think) available when I was last at Best Buy (3-4 days ago), and I live in Chicago so I would think demand is pretty high here... granted... I don't know how long they were laying around there, but they were there none the less Link to comment

J-Stop Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Amazon sold out of Wiis within the first two minutes they went on sale today. No shocker there. Link to comment
Adam Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 I honestly didn't think Wii would be a success this much but man I'm glad it is one. Link to comment

Akito Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 I'm sort of glad Wii is hard to find. If it were as easy to find as everyone said it would be, then all the pain and suffering I went through outside of Target would have been for nothing. Link to comment
