Hey guys.  I just got an email from Toys R US and thought I'd let you guys in on it.  This sunday:

• Toys R US stores around the nation will apparently be getting in a huge supply of Wii's. 
• 50% of Mario and Sonic and George of the Jungle
• $20 off Hannah Montana and High School Musical

 You MAY need to preorder the Wiis, so call up your local Toys R Us!
   *"Wii console requires a $200 deposit at time of reservation. MARIOKART Wii requires a $5 deposit at time of reservation. Deposit will be applied to purchase price. Limited quantities available. Sorry no rainchecks."

**In-store only. Valid 4/27 - 5/3/08, Limit one title per guest. Applies to Wii versions only - George of the Jungle (977767), Mario and Sonic at the Olympics (427694), High School Musical (253505) and Hannah Montana (253850). Limited quantities available. Sorry no rainchecks.Here is a copy of the email I received:

Local stores in my area (Maryland) got big supplies of Wii last Sunday (4/20). Plus, toysrus.com has had the Wii in stock (then out of stock five minutes later) more than I've seen for at least a year. If next week will be bigger than one, that's pretty amazing. I guess it's another way Nintendo is trying to steal away press from the GTA4 release. Along with the WiiFit Europe release, Mario Kart in the U.S., Tale of Symphonia in Japan, and the South Korea launch.

600K in NA alone CONFIRMED!b

hm... Mario and Sonic or George of the Jungle... I think I know which of those is going to go first.

Mario & Sonic sounds like a good deal.

wow, Perfect way for MKwii launch in NA

Bleck, I hope I can get MKWii.

BTW. Expect massive Wii Sales. Christmas level.

Does anyone know why Nintendo constantly launches Wii games on Sundays?

They did this with SSBB too. Why not tuesday like the other four consoles/handhelds?

@DM
cause more people have sunday off than other days so they can go buy the games??

and since the target is the extended gaming audience, most people includes working adults.
