205x block and mine's preparing... Looks like Nintendo did manage to rustle up additional cables...
(if only amazon would give me the same satisfaction)
I just refreshed my shipping and it went from Jan 15/16 to Nov 16/17. That sounds like it's just using today's date, but if others are seeing it come up as processing, maybe they will ship today....
I got pretty much the same answer after sending a nastigram (he said it should ship by the 21st)...
At this point, I'm not sure who to believe.
If they don't ship by Friday, I'll probably try to snag one on Sunday... Just in case.
This is the response I got from Amazon:
So, as of right now, the only SOLID date I have heard from Amazon is Jan 16.
We've established that customer service doesn't know what they're talking about, but it doesn't appear that the Video Games Editor does, either.

If it ships on the 20th, that's fine. My issue is with it shipping in January.
Getting it early would be a nice plus. However, I have no indication from amazon that it will be shipping before Christmas.
I haven't pre-ordered anywhere else because Amazon assured me that I would get my Wii in...
Why can't Amazon get their act together?
From all indications I have, my Wii will be shipping on Jan 15, despite my Sept. 15 order.
I realize this may not be true, but I also don't trust Amazon not to drop the ball. It seems very few have an actual ship date of Nov 20. Why can't they just...
Hmm. I reset my shipping and it's showing Jan 15 every time now. Not good. I'll have to send Amazon a nastigram...
I agree, though, it would be nice to get it this weekend, but I'll be perfectly happy if I can get it in time for the long weekend.
Hehehe...
Yeah, I just updated my shipping. January 8->9
Immediately reupdated. November 8->9
Clicked back to my outstanding orders page... November 10
Their estimator is REAL screwy.
I'm just concerned that my only confirmation that Amazon will actually honor my order is something I read...
