Looks like WiiFit was on Ellen day show.

Everyone already knew this, but yeah, it's amazing stuff.

I bought two today at Sam's club in Parkersburg WV. They had a total of three the last one sold before I left the store. (Each sold for 85.95)

Guess which website they are getting sold on. LOL.

I'm 23 and my initial age was 37. That kinda upset me, but after playing for 30 minutes I re-evaluated and my age was busted down to a respectable 27.

I was up at Bestbuy around 8PM tonight. No Wiis, no WiiFit.

After having not been to Bestbuy in a few weeks though, the really surprising thing was the size of the Wii section. My local store now has more than a full aisle (accessories spill over into the DS aisle) for Wii stuff, when it was a little less than a half aisle a few weeks ago.

This is very cool Grampy. By the way, Wii Fit keeps telling me I'm unbalanced and that I'm 43 years old. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

My GameStop sold all 10 by 4pm. Tbh, I expected them to sell out much faster.

Actually, this wasn't unexpected. Our store just opened last Thursday, so it's usually pretty dead because nobody knows about it yet. The fact that we had so many people stopping in surprised me quite a bit, despite Wii Fit's launch.
