I was out today and on Black Friday I could have picked up a Wii at either Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Costco or Toys R us in Orland Park, IL. We didnt hit the first store until about 7:30AM (Walmart) and the last at Costco and we left there at about noon. Everyone had ample supply and you didnt see everyone picking them up. Walmart even said oh we have plenty more in back. Walmart even had WiiFit still available. I really believe with the ample supply that has been available the last month that a lot of people purchase Wii's already. People werent going to be caught napping like the last 2 years so when they had the chance they picked them up. |
I wouldn't be suprised if they were all gone by the end of the day though. I just went to a walmart (6PM) and they were whiped out of their Wii and DS stock. In fact, I just checked Amazon, and they are now selling for $300, and it looks like most online stores are out of stock.
