I've been looking for a Wii for practically 4 months or so. And still no luck. -_-
Anyone got any tips or anything so I can get my chubby little (not really) hands on one? Also, do any stores have a way to reserve one?
edit: eBay's not an answer. :-/

Well I got my Wii the day it came out, waited for 3 hours and gamestop and got one. But opening day is alot different than what it is now, I'm sure. So...I guess my advice would just be to get to a store early, within a hour or so of opening.

Well...I guess I'll have fun making a lot of calls tomorrow lol
I heard a lot of stores usually get them late Saturday night (after the store closes). So I guess I could go out there on Sunday morning before they open. But ofcourse I'll make the call first to make sure they have them so I don't stand out there for nothing. Because that would just...suck. XO

Try Walmart, for some reason no one ever shops there.
AND DONT BUY DOG FOOD THERE. I read on Yahoo! News that it cause heart failure and other stuff.
At least my perrito is safe ^.^

LOl ya Wallmart and Kmart would be good trys I know Kmart isnt what it used to be it might have some collecting dust.
If you just cant wait go rent one from a Video store for a few days its relatively cheap like 12 bucks for 2 days. That would hold you over for a while i used to do that before i got my ps2 like in the year of nintendo.

If you can't get a Wii, then get a PS3. There should be plenty left over if you can't find a Wii.
Hell, just the other day in Walmart an employee walked by me (again) with two PS3s in his hand...To the showcase with another PS3 behind the glass. I was like...
"Wtf, where are all the Wiis?"
