    I'm just going to be there when they open on Sunday.

    I'll get one.

      Just wait until the holiday rush is over. Parents are going mad trying to get one for the kiddies. Just wait patiently. Think of it this way: people won't be so mean when you ask/call about it.

      Besides, if it makes you feel any better, the same thing happened to me a few weeks back.
      I agree your best chance is probably after the holiday season. Feb would be a time I would think the Wii sales would slow down enough where they're not selling out the first day.

        Feb. might be a bit late. I heard that the frenzy will slow down about a week or two after Christmas. After all, Channukah starts tommorow and Christmas is over on the 26th, so then people won't be so pushed to get one.

        At the very most, I'd say third week of January, but hey, I've been wrong before.

          It also seems that for whatever reason, stores in my area are holding off on putting Elebits on the shelves.

          It's going to take a bit of scouring to procure the game. My friend is home from college, so he's gonna go with me this weekend. We're going everywhere until we find a store that has it.

            I wonder what the deal is with that.

              I want the plushie of it that you can get from pre-ordering the game, but I put the game on my Christmas list, so I doubt my parents will just happen to get it. ;_;

              Also: eh? I thought Elebits release date was the 19th. (That might explain why it's not on shelves :P ) Although after a bit of searching, it seems that it used to be the 19th but Gamestop said it moved up a week? I dunno. Well, don't be surprised if you can't find it until then.

                Best Buy says they got it on the 14th. Circuit City says they don't have it yet. CompUSA is like what.

                    Re: The Wii is Here.

                    To get the games, the best places to go would be actual game stores, not Best Buy/Meijier's/Wal-Mart/whatever. I saw Elebits yesterday when I went into GameStop to pick up the old Pheonix Wright game.

                    IN OTHER NEWS: Pheonix Wright is great and everyone who has a DS should be required to get it.

                      Yeah, I found it at my GameStop. Best Buy, Circuit City, Wal-Mart, and Target came up negative.

                      Off to play it despite the fact that it's a Christmas present.

                          Going to get my Wii tomorrow. I plan to get an extra controller, Twilight Princess, and 2 of the following 3 games (if I can. if not just one)

                          Rayman
                          Monkeyball
                          Elebits

                          Which 2 should I get? I'm gonna check the thread in the morning and hopefully someone will have posted =\)

                            I'd say Monkey Ball and Elebits. I mean, I'm not even getting Elebits yet, but it just seems incredible. Oh, and Trauma Center: Second Opinion is amazing. At least consider it.

                              I've never played any of the monkey ball games before so I'm still deciding if I should try the one for the Wii.

                                Monkey Ball is fun. I don't know about it on Wii, but it sounds like it would work.

                                Alas, I am waking up at 5:00am on Sunday to get a Wii.
