Wii bundlepacks available at Costco - $349
Gamestops will receive Consoles & Remotes this weekend...

Heads up!

 

just checked costco.com nothing man

will check a local gamestop

 

albert, what do you get in the bundle?

 

I don't want to deal with driving to different retail stores trying to find a WII but I definitely want one so I'm on the lookout for availability at on-line retailers, preferrably not in the huge wal-mart bundle (6 titles) but as an ala carte unit or with a small bundle. I find this site to be helpful to track on-line availability of the WII - I have it setup as an RSS feed and it alerts me with changes of stock.

Here is RSS feed URL:

in the costco bundle, you get zelda and a truck game....at least thats what the bundle at the kirkland, wa costco had.

 

just got done with a night of wii and drinking.... wii sports boxing rules after a few drinks

 

i don't understand the boxing at all...can't get it to work right when I'm doing it...any tricks to the trade people are willing to tell me about?

 

u gonan get yo! *** kicked tomorrow @ wii boxing... wifey told me to tell u that

 

you dont have to throw the punches really fast and hard...or even reach far. i do really short and not to slow, but kind of medium pace and it works well...same goes for all the other games, except baseball

 

I hear tomorrow is the big day for wii's. All Best Buys and Circuit City's will be stocked in the morning. Be ready...

 

Not sure if you guys are interested but yesterday I saw on slickdeals.net that TowerRecords has 25% of Wii games online.

 

Wii tennis is the way to go. Four people in the living room gets a little tight, but it's very fun!

 

According to joystiq.com, GameStops, EBGames, and BestBuy have been stockpiling Wiis for release tomorrow:

Also, GameStop is offering a $50 trade-in credit for your GameCube towards a Wii:

Hahahaha...where I live, there's a Best Buy and GameStop at the same location. I arrived at 9:45 am and at both locations, there were around 15-20 people camped out already. I said screw it and went for a drive in the RS4 instead.

Out of curiosity though, I returned an hour later, maybe around 11. Since Best Buy had opened, there was no longer a line, but at GameStop, the same 15-20 people were still waiting in line for GS to open to get their Wiis. Nintendo really scored a hit. Go figure...I managed to grab a 60 GIG PS3 at my EBGames, but can't get a Wii. LOL. <sigh> And I refuse to camp out. Guess I'll have to wait until the hype dies down.

 

I showed up at Best Buy at 10 AM and got one this morning.
