This site makes it a little easier for us to keep track of what is available for preorder where. Doesn't cover everyone, but EB/GS, Walmart, Amazon, etc are covered.

As of now, lik-sang is the only e-tailer taking console preorders.

Found on 4cr.

Wait...you can now preorder good Wii games like Zelda & Metroid at EBGames.com? It seems kind of strange you can do so through the website, but they're not available for preorder at the B&M, although I guess that might have changed recently.

Believe it or not, the only games you can preorder for Wii in store are the ones that are NOT on-line. I don't know what the deal is with that, but it's how it works right now.

I bookmarked this site, but I noticed it's not picking up all pre-order options. At bestbuy.com, you can now preorder about 12-15 different titles, including Dragon Quest Swords, Metroid Prime 3, Metal Slug Anthology, etc.

Interestingly, about 4 or 5 of the games, including Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda: Twilight Princess, and Wii Sports have release dates of 11/3/06, while most others are dated 11/17 or later.

I know that Nintendo will make official announcements in the coming weeks, but it's kind of fun to keep watching these retailers to see who might inadvertently reveal launch information.

I'm waiting to see a complete list of games and release dates...
