How Many Nintendo Wiis Have You Managed to Get Your Hands On?

[DebPC]

$1000 ShowsHow many has everyone had since 9/1? I have had 1 but several $800 and a $900 show. Tonight there are 24 people coming so I'm figuring its a given. Very long time since I've that many at a show.

We're thinking of getting one. We've never owned video games but have been told this is different. We're interested in the sports package- where you can pretend compete,
Any reviews?

My mom and my brother have them. My boys love to play it when they visit. I have played the bowling. It was alright but I didnt have a chance to try anything else.

OK- now that I want one- I can't find one! They sell out as soon as they come in. Even online they are asking way more then retail- resellers. I've found different bundles which cost more- but i just want the basic one with sports games. Wish me luck!

Good luck. My hubby got lucky the day they first came out He originally went with a friend who was going to get one. They went to Target and He got out of the car to get a "ticket" and get in line for his friend... well his friend grabbed one on his way up so my hubby had a ticket and decided to take advantage of it

Just found this for you lucky owners of a Wii.

If you own a wii...nintendo will send out free replacement straps and rubber jackets for your wii-motes...(no more holes in the tv's)

Wrist Straps: http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/wiiplay.jsp

may not seem like much but its free...enjoy

 

[JaimeQ]

Thanks I just ordered my rubber jackets.

 

[janetupnorth]

I SWEAR I saw them cheaper (around $250) about a month ago and now I only see them for $400 and up!!!!

I was just looking on Walmart and the only system they have comes as a bundle so it comes with more stuff.

 

[DebPC]

I think the higher prices for the basics units online are from resellers who paid the normal price and are trying to make $$ from desparate people. And the bundles are available but have a bunch of stuff I don't think I want. some of them are quite a higher.

Got to Toys R Us 1/2 an hour before they opened this morning and they were already sold out. Then flew over to Circuit City 45 minutes early and missed the cut there too. Oh well- tomorrows another day!
