I need to move!!! Seems like they are everywhere but here. I didn't think they would be hard to get this year!

adorame · 11-26-2007, 08:53 PM

We were going to get the Wii last year for our boy's but we did not get till April! Every time a store would get some in it would be like 10 per store. I was so glad when we were finally able to get one! I did not think that they would be so hard to get yet again this year! Do you have a Sam's Club by you? They had a large amount the last time we were in. Good luck getting your's it is fun to play!!

Ninetendo only makes so many of these games each year. Not like the playstations where they are mass produced. So thats why they are harder to get this year! At least thats what I was told when I got mine at Toys R Us....

Good Luck!

They can be hard to find around here, too. They sell out fast this time of year. Last year I did something I said I would never do... sit outside a store and wait for them to open

Well, we all had fun in the freezing cold weather - eating donuts... but they gave out numbers and they ran out 2 people before me.

Anyway... I gave my son a card for Christmas telling him he would get his Wii as soon as I could find one. He is an adult and it was so fun watching his anticipation. When I called and told him to come over cause I had something he wanted, he was over in a flash.

It was worth the wait to see his excitement!

We have a Wii, we got it the first day it came out. It is a really great gaming system, it is our favorite by far. Now we are trying to get as many games as we can get. You won't be disappointed!!
Good luck, I hope you find one!!

Are people STILL looking for these? Wow...I got mine a long time ago...it's fun but I'm not that impressed with some of the games...I'm not sure it lives up to all the hype...

I never play mine anymore...

s13silviagirl · 11-28-2007, 05:38 AM

Have you looked on Amazon? I think they had quite a few on there. I just got mine, it was the last one in the Navy Exchange. Lucked out!

Patti · 11-28-2007, 06:06 AM

Amazon has some but they are over 500.00!!! I got mine for the regular price!!

Yeah, you're right . That's where I got one as my hubby's christmas present and I had paid 240 pounds

. But my hubby deserves it, so no loss there.

Guitar Hero is DEFINITELY worth it. I think we have it here at my Wal-mart. PM me if you'd like me to pick it up for you.
