Buddy-licious · 11-16-2007, 08:41 AM

My friend just called to say she has been everywhere looking for a Wii and no one has them....AGAIN this year!!!! I just called several places for her....and had no luck!!!! I waited hours & hours last year at Christmas at different stores hoping to get one. Then finally I hit one store just as they got their shipment in. Needless to say, my son was very happy Christmas morning!!!
Has anyone seen the Wii's when you have been out shopping?

Amber_lv · 11-16-2007, 09:06 AM

my mom just bought one today she has been waitinhg for months and could never find one but she got it at walmart.

Same over here in England too!

In fact I bought one about 6months ago and sold it a few weeks ago with extended warrenty and stuff... would you believe that the week I was trying to buy a Wii I really struggled to find a store that had one in stock but they ALL had stock of the PS3 and it was the PS3's release week!!!! Go figure!

Wiis are hard. I have a guy friend who is a manager at radio shack, he lets me know whenever he gets in a shipment.. other than that I have heard through a lot of my friends that Walmart is the place to get it, they get in the most shipments. Funny thing is, when they get a shipment they only get like 4 of them. I don't understand why they don't get, like, 100 or something!

Who knows, I know that someone said that the company thats making them isn't making a lot of them, just enough to distribute around, I guess they are wanting to make them more popular.. who knows.

Yep! This is true! Nintendo only makes a certian amount of Wii's. My boyfriend and I looked around FOREVER for them! We finally found one at a Target after calling around to about 20 places on morning! Good luck to those of yall looking for them!

Superstarkba · 11-16-2007, 09:45 AM

There might be some out on black Friday, but good luck getting one. Better be the 1st in line at 3 am!!!

that's where I've seen alot of them. or Gamestop.com

Graleyne · 11-16-2007, 10:22 AM

Ya'll are getting me a Wii for Christmas?!?!?! That is so sweet! Really though, you don't have to go through all that trouble. I'll be just as happy with a new car!

Seriously though, the only place I have seen them has been at Wal-Mart. Maybe she could order one off line if someplace had them in stock?

sounds as if they are playing "hard to get" .......

Tiggerwit · 11-16-2007, 10:27 AM

Noooooo!!!!!

they can't be running out, say it 'aint so... I want one sooo bad with Mario Party.

Of course I probably won't be buying myself one anytime soon since my brats are still at home but one day.... my ship will come in. hee hee hee

Jenn218 · 11-16-2007, 10:28 AM

FYE (For Your Entertainment) is a great store!! Love it!

We aren't big "gamers" here....so we never even look at things like that.
My daughter has a Nintendo DS with lots of educational games and fun games, but it doesn't get played often.
