It's the first game (yes I consider it a game) I've ever pre-ordered because I'm pretty sure I won't be able to just walk in a Future Shop and buy it on release day.

 Its going to be as rare as finding a wii just sitting around in a store. D:



Former something....

Oh no! I was thinking of pre-ordering this week. Now that does mean I have to line up at Best Buy again. First the Wii itself and now one of its games.

If Walmart runs out, the sales are going to be HUGE!

Fix'd

The sales for this game will be amazing, awe-inspiring, etc.

1 million first week?  Crazy.  But can someone link me that article, I've never read it.

 IGN: Nintendo Japan gambled on just how well received Wii Fit would be in the homeland by shipping one million units for launch. Obviously, it paid off. Are you planning to ship a similar quantity of units for the U.S. launch?

Reggie Fils-Aime: We are. Our sights are set very high for the this product so our goal is to make sure we have over a million units available at launch to support it.

All my local gamestops are taking preorders still. But that doesn't mean that they arn't over selling.

The population of Wii's in the usa far outstrips the number of wii's in japan.  Nintendo is probably better off at least doubling the shipment of wii fits for the launch in the usa.



Got it this morning! first impressions;

1 the balance board is a heavy piece of hardware and very solid.

2 lots to do and unlock ,the game itself is one hell of a workout, you will feel it trust me on this ;)

3 watching my brother doing the hoola hoops was priceless LOL



Huh. Guess i better preorder this somewhere sooner then later.



Well my store is still taking Pre-orders BUT on every pre-order it says "2nd Shipment" so those people can't get theirs until the 2nd shipment comes in. =\
