Topic Availability of Wii

Even though they're still not easy to find, I heard that it hasn't hurt the sale of the Wii. A report I saw the other day stated that Nintendo fell just short of their 6 millionth Wii sale in 5 months - they only sold 5.4 million. I don't think I'd be crying over spilled milk.

I had a horrible time trying to find the Wii, I tried about a month ago for 2 weeks calling every store I could think of everyday to see if they got any in. I finally got it, and I would say it is well worth it for now. I think once Halo 3 is released it will bring Xbox 360 sales up like it did for the Xbox.

It is now finally easier to find in my area. Took forever though to get to this point. But I was in Walmart and the shelves were full of them. How long that will last I have no idea.

I have yet to see shelves full of Wiis in my area.

We too waited a long time to get ours. We live in a really small community so we had to wait until we went to the city to even begin to look for them.

My husband has a job such that he winds up in the city now and then with work and he would always look for a Wii to no avail.

Then one day we got a call from a friend of our's whose sister was at Toys R Us and they had Wiis but each person was only allowed to purchase one. So, our friend's mother went down and picked up an extra one for us......In the end, it was worth the effort as we really enjoy it.
