Care to share? Or do the tips only apply to your specific area?

Oh nothing special really, just about how gamestop should be getting more this week and she should call to find when their shipments will arrive.

Re: Wiiless in Memphis
 

Okay, a question for anyone who might know the answer:

In my local Sunday newspaper ads, I noticed Wal-Mart advirtised that the Wii will be available wednesday. Minimum 3 per store, limited quantities, one per customer, blah blah blah.

Anyways, i was thinking about going bright and early to try to nab one, but the problem is our Wal-Mart is open 24 hours, so I really dont know how early is early enough...I mean, how has wal-mart been handling the situation? Will some sort of line form inside the store or what?

Ok of course call them to make sure, but everytime I've gone to a 24 hour Wal-Mart for a launch or something like this, they start selling the things at midnight. Which I say is a good thing, no waiting all damn night and ruining your sleep schedule. I would just get there as early as work or school allows you and start waiting in line. Since there are only three available, and assuming demand is still up, you'll probably have to wait quite awhile, but at least it won't be all night.

Oh, and the way I've seen it they make you wait outside, but that's for launches with a ton of people. They'd probably let you form a line inside since there won't be many of you.

that sucks how the 'big stores' do that.... they get em in and they purposely hold on em until they put em in an ad and release em on a certain day...

if you can hit a gamestore like gamestop or ebgames on a day when they get deliveries they'll release em right away.

i got a bit lucky with mine, i went to gamestop a couple days ago, just as the UPS guy gave em all thier packages. i asked if they had any and they said lets check... opened up a box and there was 3 wii's in it. heh.

Just for the record, their Ad said MINIMUM 3 per store, so hopefully there will be more to go around. But yea I might as well just call tonight and see when they go on sale.
