Whereforeartthou Wii?

Look for smaller retailers that might carry them. When I got mine, back around launch, everyone was lining up outside Best Buy and I went to an out-of-the-way EBGames and got mine no problem. The smaller guys get them less frequently, but they have less traffic.
It seems most retailers are hoarding them for "Black Friday" which is something I never participate in (shopping frenzy the early AM after Thanksgiving day). Whatever. I'll loan the guy mine and put it in the imac packaging (kid computer to run windowz mainly since it's cuter than that new dell for the same $$ and has a 2600 pro instead of 2400) I wind up with next week

Have you looked at for sales forums for used Wiis. I just picked one up for $315 shipped used for 3 months that came with extra controller and nunchuck with Call of Duty3. There are some for sale on Anandtech sale forums.

$500 for a $250 game machine? Meh, the $580 bundles with 5+ games are a much better deal (newegg, ebgames, etc.). Thanks though.
The EBGames near work (downtown Manhattan) had 30 Wii's this morning. Walked in there and picked one up along with Galaxy and Guitar Hero. Went with two coworkers who picked one up too and there were about 10 left. Either we got lucky or people don't know about this particular store.
I could send you one from HK at no markup, since it's you, Mize. But, it would be Japanese, and shipping would not be cheap, and well, i guess yu'd have to trust me or something. or, i'd have to trust you... or i guess we could use escrow. XD how eloquent of me!
