So, the wifey and I want a wii (she's really pushing for one) but the problem is that I can't find one. Anyone know where I can get one for retail price? I've looked online and if i do it that way i'll have to pay almost twice as much -- to mii, that's just rediculous. Any suggesstions are welcome.

You've got to check all major retailers daily and have the money with you every time you go looking. Check before it hits noon because they won't stay on shelves the whole day. You can also pester the retailers with phone calls to keep checking inventory.

The only way you'll get one is to be persistent and patient. You may however just get lucky and find one today when you least expect it.

Just call up stores, find out when they are getting their next shipment, and show up then. Wii's aren't that hard to find anymore.

I've only seen them in stores here twice. The first time I didn't have the cash, and I kicked myself for a few months. I asked at gamestop and they told me to check on a certain day coming up and said try to be there after the UPS truck around 11. So I did, they had some in and bought one.

thanks guys for your help. I actually went into walmart about an hour ago and they had one. I'm really glad about that cause I almost went online and bought one for almost twice as much as the retail price.
