I camped out on launch day to get one. I didn't actually think they would be this hard to find, I just wanted to be sure I had one.

I got one over here by pure chance during the week.
I was walking buy a shop and saw a woman come out with a Wii box under her arm,so I went in and asked if they had any consoles in stock and to my surprise the answer was yes,they had 3 left.

I bought one there and then.:D

I call every store in a 10 mile radius everyday, and I am always like 10 minutes too late. I want one soooo bad!

I go to best buy and such stores at least twice a week and no luck so far. They once had PS3's...but I want a Wii.

Well, I would suggest ordering one online then. Stores obviously have them and if you order it online, it will be shipped to you. It may take a little bit for the item to ship from another state, but you will get it if you order it online. There is no need to constantly check stores in your area when you can get the same thing online.

Theres usually some available every few days online, but most of them are bundles. I was gonna buy one, but I really only wanted zelda and didnt feel like paying 600 bucks for a bundle with a bunch of games I didnt want.
