    It's funny when you think about it. Nintendo's making them as fast as they can because when they sell more, they make more money. The problem is they CAN'T make them faster. Their factories are at full capacity. They've sold something like 17 million since the unveiling last year. That doesn't sound like they're holding back to me.

    Yup... happened to me. My former roommate bought one and convinced me to lay some games with him... I got bored after 10 minutes and haven't touched one since.

    a lady I work with works at Target early in the morning on weekends and says the Grapevine store gets them and that they're usually people in lawn chairs waiting before 6am.

    I talked to the guy at the Plano walmart this evening. He said they have 26 on order, but doesn't know when they will get them. He said that the truck arrives at 2pm, is unloaded in the afternoon, then things are checked in to the system overnight. They hit the shelf "at some point in the morning". He said the best bet is to call hourly every morning and ask for the electronics department, then ask if they have any.

    Ohh... I forgot to mention that when I find one, it will be going on craigslist for cost + $100. POS gets right of first refusal at the MME discounted price of cost + $95.

    True I'm not getting up and camping in front of a store on the outside chance I may get one. And I'm certainly not going to pay extra to someone who did, I could loose my TCB card for that infraction.

    On to plan B!

    Got the email this morning. No Wii's at the Secret Sale.
