I went on a big adventure today and two stores I visited didn't even have the game out on shelves yet... >_< All three of the stores I visited had a very limited quantity.
Anyways... Today, I visited 2 Best Buys and a Gamestop. I drove down to Best Buy down in DE (no tax!) with the intention of buying: A DS, NSMB, Zelda:PH, Call of Duty:WaW, Tales of Symphonia:DoTNW, and a few other gadgets. At the two Best Buys, I saw MOUNTAINS of Wiis... and I saw four people walk out with one. I also visited another South Philly Best Buy, same thing... I never saw that many Wiis available for purchase at one time ever. Also, I never seen so much shovelware in my life. I mean, good God... there are Wii games out I never even knew existed! |
Nintendo probably stockpiled tons of them to release during the Holiday
