Amazon.com. Just keep checking every now and then and you'll eventually catch them at a moment where they have some in stock.

Futureshop, My Grandma drove there at 4 in the morning and waited in her van until the people started to line up a week after launch i think. Also I didn't ask her to she did it because she found out my trip at launch was unsuccessful.

Launch day at Walmart. 14th in line and 18 hours later...ahhhh! LOL I was there for the pre-order at a Gamestop and was the first person cut-off. Glad I didn't get it from them anyways. I rarely give them my business these days, unless it's absolutely unavoidable.

I got mine off of ebay immediately after release, for a great deal actually... the auction was ending early launch day, so people hadn't figured out how well it was going to ebay, so I was able to get the system and Marvel Ultimate Alliance (Albeit and incredibly crappy game) for only about 30 bucks more than just the system would cost in stores.

Best Buy, waited for two hours on Launch Day, didn't get it, five days later at EB games waited for ten minutes, they had four. Finally, a week after launch, at Best Buy, waited for five ****ing hours. November cold is torture in Chicago. Me and my bro were hiding in the entranceway so no one would see it and try to steal it, there was this lady, she was eyeing it.... Anyways, Wii 4 Mii. Camping out is a lot of fun, you meet some interesting people, I would do it again. You become friends for a few hours, share Nintendo Power magazines, play some DS, talk about what games you're gonna get. Really a great experience.
