Hey, as customary, sorry if a repost.

So I came back from my TRU, as these things go, and the manager of R-Zone told me that they're having Wii's for tomorrow, Sunday. I got it confirmed from another friend who works there, about a hundred systems. I don't know if this is the case at other TRU's, but hey, if you don't have a system, here's your chance.

The doors are going to open an hour early as well too, and moreover, I don't know if this early opening, or the entire thing, is local or national.

hmm. i might actually give this a try, wouldve been better if they didnt close the tru 5 min away though.

Went to my local TRU yesterday. Informant advised me they were receiving 60 units. This is the TRU in Hagerstown, Md.

Saw 3 at Target today. First time I have EVER seen a Wii at any store. Unlike the PS3 which was in 4 display cases.

They're showing as being in the TRU ad for tomorrow, mixed in with the Crackemon flier inside of the TRU flier.

I might give this a shot, while other people may be distracted with Pokemon coming out, I'll snag a Wii.

Isn't it a bit too long after the launch to be posting Wii availability threads in the deals forum?

Not when the system is so awesome that it is still an elusive, hot and sexy item monthes after release. Fool.

Yep, definetly my store has them as they already had a list of people that are suppose to be there tomorrow waiting in line.

Phoenix, Arizona - MetroCenter area near the mall is getting a SHITLOAD of them. (more than 100).

Can anyone else confirm that the stores are opening an hour early?

The Best Buy ad also says they will have Wiis tomorrow I think. 6.5 million and still having mini-launch days

Well i will get mine at Best Buy so i can get a whopping 5 dollar rewards certificate

I'd also like to know if all TRU will be opening an hour early. I doubt too many people know, and I could snag my pre-order for Pokemon before someone one-ups me and makes me wait for the second shipment.

Should I buy the extended warranty if they offer me?

I'm guessing no.

Negatory, captain. Unless you enjoy giving charity to big business.

OK, in case anyone else was wondering and hasn't already gone way early to line up at TRU, I just got the paper and I didn't see anywhere on the TRU ad that they're opening early.

Also, I know it was mentioned somewhere before that CC is also getting Wiis but I didn't see anyone mention numbers. The ad said that they're getting a minimum of 15. And we all know by now that BB is getting a minimum of 12.

The TRU I went to let us in at 8:45 (normally opens @10). I got there at 8:40, was #19 in line and they had 33 for sale.

Why the hell are these things still so hard to find? Has any other console in video gaming history been this scarce for this long?

Sounds like a pretty massive restock. Maybe this will finally level the prices out on ebay.
