OK, I have to ask. Was anyone here lucky (desperate) enough to get one of these things at launch?
HW shortages abound, and by the looks of the auction sites and craigslist, those that did get it are trying to profit off it instead of play it.
Anyone here?
I checked a few stores this morning, my daughter and I were out for breakfast.
Futureshop (essentially our biggest general electronics store here had 10 units.
EBGames 10.
The Sony Store had 12.
Walmart got 8.
As for the Wii: Futureshop's getting 60, Walmart 58, EBGames 50. Each store is guaranteeing more stock later next week. The same can't be said for Sony's.
I'm getting a Wii Sunday for the kid.
Fuck Sony, maybe next year when the format war is settled the overheating is taken care of and the price is a little more reasonable.
Heh, Futureshop put a huge Xbox360 bundle together for sale today.. probably looking for disappointed Sony purchasers... but thats just speculation.
