I got woken up by a 5 am phone call on Wii launch morning, my friend was in line at a Wal-Mart that opened at 6 and said there were only 10 people there. I got to the store around 5:30, waited half an hour, bought their 18th Wii out of 20. As I left, the person behind me was buying the 19th, and someone ran in the front door as I walked out the front door to buy the 20th. I got very, very lucky. :) I had been to 5 stores the night before that all had lines longer than their inventory.
