As well as the PS3 preorders for Canada.

50 bucks down payment, and it's limited to one per household (They go by last name I think)

I had no problem getting one. Just got off school an hour ago, went down and got the 3rd to the last preorder.

The store here had twelve total.
 
Shit i thought they said it was the 16 :(. I really don't think i'll be able to get a wii on the launch...but i'm going to try :P

You probably still can. There's an estimated 2 million Wiis allocated for North America at launch.

I just figured 'If I want to so badly, why take a chance?'
 
See the problem is that the town I live in gets like 3 of them at walmart....and thats it, and they don't preorder. So i'd have to drive an hour to go to a town where I could get one, but i've got a pretty busy weekend this weekend :(

Haha I called both Gamestops in my town and they both sold out within 15 mins. :(

I called 5 diferent EB/Gamestop stores in the area, all of them were out of pre-orders before the store opened (as in there were more people camped out than they had preorders at 5 different stores). Damn fucking college kids with no jobs/responsibility! :angry:

Will probably try to get it from the Target/Wal-mart locations on the 18th...I guess.

Too bad you don't live in a town where no-one cares/knows about the Wii like I do :P

Amazon sold out before the first hour, probably less. I think it's closer to 15 minutes.

See the huge problem with that is that nintendo doesn't give those stores very many consoles....So like they may get like 5 or less. At least that how it is in South Dakota

Each store had at a minimum 10 preorder spots, some up to 20. These stores are getting even more than that (they gave out preorders as half the expected amount that will come in at launch, so if they expected 28 consoles, they gave out 14 preorders). That's how it is in MA.
 
why not just order it online there must be a pre order option even though they are outta stock...
