so they can hype it more and make the lines even longer

That's wrong, that leaves ecurbj out of purchasing a Wii!!!!!

Some stores releases them randomly, and it's just a matter of getting lucky. I have seen them in the wild several times. You have a decent chance of just seeing them there if you know what stores to check, but they will be gone in a matter of hours (or less), not to return again at random for 1 or 2 weeks....

You have a better chance in small cities than large cities.

Sunday morning is also good at Toy-R-Us stores.


Setup azgrabber to monitor amazon. You will only have a matter of minutes between when the alarm goes off and they sell out. Instructions at: http://www.squidoo.com/nintendo_wii_guaranteed actual utility at: http://www.azgrabber.com/ (be sure to actually order through vgchartz's store though!)



The easiest is to wait a month. You will probably be able to get a wii along with wii fit at your local drug store.  (well, maybe not, but....  supply should be hugely increased.)

I live in a small city called Wilmington. Its in the heart of Delaware. A small city by the way. But its very odd how when I'm in Gamestop the phone rings and people are asking if they have any Wii's in stock.

But who cares as for me I might just have to stand outside early in the morning and get one if I really want one so bad. Or I might just wait. I have a NDS to keep me Nintendo happy until I find a Wii.

I walked into Best Buy 4 hours ago to watch a friend buy a Wii. When we got there they had 3 on the shelf. First time I have ever seen any Wii's on display here.

As the other posters have said, Wiis in the wild are still a rare sight throughout the U.S. If EB Games is to be believed, the shortages will last at least another four or five months. After that, you should hopefully be able to grab one off the shelves.

Or you could do what some of the others are suggesting, and just wait outside a Best Buy on Sunday. Get there early, though, since they're usually gone less than a half hour later. And make sure you try this weekend, before the Mario Kart and Wii Fit releases, or it's going to be a long summer.

The thing is how long are the lines. Are they still steep as before?

Well I guess it would help to live in Ontario, Canada right?

I live in the US, in Delaware

 I live in Ontario too, and i have seen wiis in a couple different stores over the last couple of weeks.  That just leaves the US with no wii's

ummmm, I already stated that, so you don't have to co-sign my statement. I do realize that the US has less Wii's because this is a big country and are demand is high :)
