Wii stockpile on sale this weekend

[fstfrk13]

in case you were looking for a wii or just want to ebay one: http://kotaku.com/gaming/original/ninte ... 334055.php

Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart, Sears, Kmart, Toys R Us and Circuit City are all stocking the Wii this weekend for those still on the hunt.

According to Best Buy tipsters it sounds like all stores will have at least 21 of the consoles with some carrying as many as 100. Target, another tipster tells me, has a big stockpile as well, some stores have more than 100. I've also heard that Best Buy is expecting a second shipment next week which is supposed to go straight to shelves. Most stores will get them sometimes before noon. The bad news is that rumor has it that that will be the last pre-Christmas shipment for Best Buy, though they expect more in early January.

I got one in the morning today. Me and two friends chilled out in the parking lot 4am to opening. At about 6:30am there were already about 40 people in line, tickets were handed out at 7:30am, only 34 of them. Let's just say there were allot of angry soccer moms

Oh yeah the first person in line was some asian dude that was there since saturday afternoon. He organized a list so we lined up in our cars instead of outside in the freezing cold (chicago weather, ew)

It stopped snowing at about 6am here (50ish miles south of chicago) making about 13inches of snow. and we still sold out of 72 Wii's in less than an hour.

People are crazy.

then I laugh at the people who come in at 5pm ask for a Wii, then get angry we dont have any left because we have them in the ad.

Where at? There seems to be a lot of Chicagoland Gamestop / EB employees on BG forums... Which is odd, considering in my four years in FFXI and two now in WoW I've met zero people in either game to live within 150 miles of the city, heh.

I live in Aurora, IL, personally. I work right next door to a Best Buy, and people have been camping out *every* night hoping to score a Wii when they open, since like....Thursday.
