We're not buying them by the dozen (except for those ****s on eBay).  After someone buys a Wii, that's typically enough for them.  In an unrelated note: IN YOUR MOTHER****IN' FACE!

Yeah.  Sorry you couldn't get ahold of one.  Better luck next time.

Phone up, preorder. Simple. After 4 months of not being able to find a Wii, I called Argos, preordered, and got one the next day.

LOL clever. Should of Pre-ordered like the rest of us. But you can still pre-order now! Or you can wait a couple of months for the Wii to get into stock.

Maybe you should have camped out infront of Walmart for 14+ hours on November 18th. Then you could  have got it.

P.S.  Me= 4th in line out of 33 (Wii's in the store)

I saw a bunch of Wii boxes at GS. I asked about them and they said that they were display boxes, they havn't had a Wii in stock since launch.

Good luck at finding it. be patient. I got mine out of pure luck.

   Maybe if you go to a smaller local videogame store, they might have it more in stock than larger stores. Some areas have more Wii available, some areas don't.

A new store recently opened up in my town, and it has plenty of wii's in stock...

only problem is they're charging £230 with no game.

If you only need one Wii, then you only need one person to not buy one, not everyone.

It is beyond that now. I am calling 2 times a day at stores to see when the trucks come in with them. If I am lucky I will pick one up like I did with my ds. I will have a guy go in the back and get one for me before they go on shelves.

Don't be defensive about pre-ordering.  You planned ahead.  Getting mad at people for pre-ordering is like getting stuck in the snow, and being mad at people who have chains and aren't stuck.  Fail to plan and you plan to fail.
