Forums - Nintendo - What Stores Have you Seen Wii's In Stock At ----North America

Well i started my Wii-Fund 2 days ago and i am already up to 140.00. So i only got 110 more to go. I was just wondering since pretty much you still cant find a Wii in stock anywhere, where do you think my best chances of get one would be? Bestbuy, Toysrus, Gamestop/ebgames?

 

Where have you actually seen wii's in stock a good amout of times?

I've seen em at Gamestop 3 times and Walmart one time... hope that helps.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

Bottom line is to look on Sundays....where ever consoles are sold.



Yeah game stop is always saying they get a couple in every week but they rarely have them for more then 5 minutes. And on amazon they are like 300 bucks. i rather just wait and try to pick one up at gamestop

Also Is Wii-Play Worth the price since you get the extra controller with it?

Yeah Wii-Play is definitely worth the price. You get a controller and a few fun games (at least Tanks). The Tanks game kept me busy for quite a while.

Do you already have plans on which games you're thinking of buying? That'd be rather important to look into.



I work at Meijer (summertime job), we had a Wii Week where we were stocked through the roof with Wii's. We had a demonstration table for people to play it. I've never seen a crowd of old people gather around something like this and have a blast with it. All of our Wii's sold out in about two days.



I work at a Kmart and we only get about 20 every month or so. We sell out in a day. I've seen people wait outside of our Kmart (a Kmart!) for a Wii. It's crazy.



I got my Wii a week after launch in the UK by putting Amazon' Wii page (the UK one of course) as my home page so that each time I fired up a new window I would see its stock status. I managed to get one for me after only a week and another couple for colleagues at work about a month later (buying one normally and the other via one click shopping as we were limited to one per person).

Good luck finding one, but with the planned increased production you might be able to freely find one in the US soon.

Well here is what i would like

WiiSport (of course)

WiiPlay (for the extra controller)

LegendofZelda-TwilightPrincess

SuperMarioGalaxy

 

That should tide me over for a little while

 

I would most likely get one of those 19.99 classic controllers to play some games on the vitual console
