One last thing Itrackr doesn't really 'lie' but it does get outdated. As someone mentioned before it is probably an indication of shipments and it is neccesary to call teh store ahead of time to ensure it is there. As I said before it showed 2 stores in my area the Bay Area Emmeryville CompUSA and Albany Target as ahving them in stock. I had called them over 3 days ago and they said they were sold out but yet they still show as having them in stock.
there are a couple of possibilites.
One Itrackr doesn't update frequently enough.
Two the instore inventory doesn't update frequently enough.
Three those two stored sold out later than there stores and haven't updated since than.
Four as the recent inclusion of gamestop availability indicate they are reported as having stock after the fact due to a delayed update.
Five stores are listed as being in stock with incoming shipments
Six the stores are hording Wiis for relaunches on Sundays.
Seven (Nintendo ships on Sundays) some stores recieve their shipments slower than others and are updated via the shipment in the Store inventory but haven't yet recieved them.
this is only for stores that it reports as having stock but don't say they do.
I am not about to call every store in the nation to find out. However Cleveland appears to have large availaility anyone from there?
Stauncheon, I would trust a phone call to the store over a faceless internet website solely for the fact that if they have them in stock they want you to buy them. True you may run into a lazy employee but can you tell me why they would lie at a 100% rate between multiple stores every time? Unless it is because they aren't supposed to sell them until a certain date due to ads inthe papers in which case they really aren't available are they?
