It's bad if it applies to all Wal-Marts.

It's Walmart... so it is probably in the back and the employees don't care enough to put it on the floor.

Maybe their supplier (Nintendo or 3rd party) ran out. Not hard to do if they're keeping a very low supply as would be the case with WiiU basic.

Might take another week or two in that case.

It is surprising because Pikmin 3 just came out and did pretty well at my walmart. But now there are no Wii U's for people to buy it with.

It's a conspriacy! Nintendo's purposely making them scarce to drive up demand!!

You should make one thread with your wallmart adventures... It will be the glorious giant 1000+ posts thread you and this site deserves..

Last night i got in an hour verbal argument over my lunch with a Over weight black lady and my Manager. I told her nicely that she was working too slow, I did not want to tell the manager. She then got offended, said some smack to me and went to him leaving all the work for me to do.

I have been there for a year and she has been there for 3 months.

In the end she refused to talk to me, and I said she never expect me to be nice to her or help her ever again. She quit the first day when I worked with her, and came back day two. I asked her if she wanted to work here back then. She said yes, she had kids. So I have tried to help her, but she always gets offended or acts like she knows and is doing it. Gets an attitude. I told the Manager I did not want to work with her I could do it all my self. I would rather not babysit. I said that babysit part to others. Long story short, last night was not good.

Thanks for caring.

I'm with the lady.. If you work like you post you work too fast and hard..

It seems as though either the Wii U's in the WalMarts I've been in are either there from launch day, or they are actually re-stocking them. I'm going with the latter as I saw no 3 inch thick dust on the boxes.

They sold out a week ago? How long did it take for them to sell out?

Well it's not selling quite as well as it is suppose to so it's understandable. It's like how the Vita isn't being stocked in my local Targets because of lack of demand. The shelf space retailers have is very valuable and systems that sell well get restocked more often is all.
