Yeah EB games is opening at midnight for those who want an early wii. I think is a nonsense to be there just to get a console.

Also I'm getting it from Big K-Mart and they only have less than 10 consoles, so I'll be camping out...

Who else?

I'm going to try to buy it without a preorder; if this is true, it may be a good idea to check it out.

I'll see about money and transportation, though, first.

Well you only have 7 hours left, 6 for me...

I will try to get one without a preorder since I didn't got the chance to preorder it, so I'll be camping out tomorrow morning (2-3am).

If I'm not seen online tomorrow, it means I got it.

FYI, my store is opening at midnight, but all 32 of my systems are for reserves only. So before you stand in a line at GS or EB, make sure it'll be well worth it.

Well, if nothing else, there's late-night partying to be had otherwise.

Honestly, I've never seen the point of getting a console the moment it comes out anyways.

Yea, I'm planning on having some fun tonight (especially since this has been one shitty week for me) and I'm all decked out in my new Wii shirt and Nintendo goodness. Damn, I should take a picture.

My aunt and her boyfriend left about an hour ago to camp outside of a Best Buy until the morning (I belive, if I'm hearing correctly, it also opens at 12)

Of course, she probably won't share they'll hog the thing, more than likely. Even if I kiock him out. And the irony is that she's such a Sony fangirl >o< so I'm stressing out all over because -I- wanted the system and yeah D:

Yeah. So. Wii. Awesome. ._.

Good luck with that. I'm doing the same thing, but I don't expect it will be available on there for more than a few minutes. They've already sold a lot of units due to 2 system glitches that let people preorder before they wanted them to. Plus according to them, for every Wii they have in stock, over 100 people have signed up to be notified when it is available. I'm camping out on every web site I can tonight, but I have a feeling I still won't get one until one of the later shipments. I don't really mind if I have to wait, but it would be nice to get one before Christmas. That way my parents will pay for it instead of me.

Here's to hoping that more shipments get in before Christmas for everyone who slacked off and didn't preorder.

... contradiction senses... tingling.


I won't be getting one for a while. Even if I had money to buy one, I'd rather wait for more games, and for any major hardware defects to be worked out. Yeah, Nintendo hasn't had any issues along those lines as far as I know, but I prefer to be safe.

...Well, I would have just gone to EB during the day to pick up the console. Maybe that's what he means - if it's pre-ordered, you don't NEED it at midnight. If it's convenient for you (say, the EB was a 5-minute drive away) then OK.

Yeah. We got it. Ended up with, apparently, Red Steel, Zelda, some DBZ game, Trauma Center, and Super Monkey Ball. 4 controllers/nunchucks, 2 classic controllers. My livingroom has been invaded since 1:30 AM last night. They've literaly been playing Red Steel all day. I'm not kidding.

The game is pretty awesome though. Affraid I couldn't review any of the others...they won't put Red Steel down and I can't get to the machine with them all on it T_T
