cool.

I saw dozens of used Nintendo Wii's at my local Gamestop last week.

 

Dozens you say? that would mean maybe 24-36-48-60-72 of used ones... I don't know.. I find that pretty unlikely.

 

I don't go to alot of places were they buy used ones but when I do I still have to see one Wii there.

 

OT: that's good maybe that's why the difference with theWii numbers this time of the year compared to last year is huge.

 

I've never seen used wiis for sale.



 

what are you guys are talking about there piles of it everywhere.

I've seen a few at an ebgames, which suprised me because this was before Christmas.

 




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Piles like that are shipped to a lot of stores weekly or bi-weekly.  Don't forget that when people were paying attention to shipments and taking numbers, stores were getting between 30-90 Wiis each and they'd sell out in a few hours or sometimes even before the store opened.

 

FYI -- gamestop/ebgames doesn't even seem to sell used Wiis online.  But you can buy plenty of used PS3s and 360s.



I've been seeing used Wii's since launch. NZ has no interest in Nintendo.



I don't like to buy used systems. You never how they've been treated. And some of the used games from Gamestop, etc, many times if you're not careful, then you get home and find they're full of scratches which is bad if you live 60 miles from where you bought them and there's a strong chance you won't be back in town in time to return them.



Heavens to Murgatoids.

I've witnessed 5-6 Wii's at Wal-mart and 1 or 2 other places (I think EB Games and Futureshop?), but I still haven't seen a Wii Fit in stock anywhere.

I think I saw Wii Fit too today, but I'm not 100% sure.
