I had nightmares all night long that my Wii wouldn't work, that I couldn't get it to connect to the WiFi Max I bought for it, that the games wouldn't DL, etc. I slept pretty crappy last night because of it lol. Now I have about an hour left of work then people coming over after work for dinner, and all I can think about is playing Zelda
At about 12:10 this morning I went to a Wal-Mart a town over from me and they had the classic controller, Wiimote, and the Wii point cards. I planned on buying the classic controller but it came up no sale so I couldn't. It pissed me off but I don't need it right away. I must say that the size of the Wiimote was a lot smaller than I thought. It looks bigger in pictures but in person it is about the size of a deluxe Transformer, maybe a hair smaller or bigger but I didn't have anything to compare it with.
Well, I'm off to Wallycron to wait. Now, gentlemen, I bid you adeu. Best of luck to my fellow Transfans who are waiting!
I can afford it, but I don't need it. I'd rather increase the odds of some kid getting it for Xmas. True it might just go to a scalper, but there's not much I can do about that. I figure there will be plenty of opportunities to get one after the holidays are over.
My brother will be lining up after he gets off work in a couple hours and I'll probably join him for a few hours. If all goes well, we'll both have our own Wii by noon tomorrow.
I'm waiting for an announcement on a black version, but if they don't announce that release date by Christmas then I'll just buy a white one then. The best part? Even after the incredibly expensive controller, you still get a fully loaded Wii for less than the cost of a PS3.
I just noticed the price of the controller in a flyer this morning and was quite surprised to see that it would cost $70CDN to get the Remote+Nunchuk. Then I also have to buy a SD card,virtual console controller and the points card and the price starts to rise up. As for the colour I really wish they had gone with black on launch instead of that ugly white everybody is going with. I would guess the black one will come out next christmas or they'll have some new colours to launch alongside Mario Galaxy or Smash Bros.
wal-mart opens at 7am, I'll be arriving at about 6:45am Screw waiting overnight. To me, that is absolutely stupid. But I may not get it, oh well.
Hubby and I will be making a trip to our local Wal-Mart at midnight. Already saw a man waiting outside of Best Buy today. May get it, may not.
...I would go and waste my money.... but I have huge hopes that Ill find some gc gems instead (as in hitting eb hoping to find a huge selection of cube games that I ahve missed used *Im lookinga t you rougue squadron 3 and megaman collection!*
I pre-ordered with EB and paid my dues waiting in line to do so. I was called and told a few days ago it was in, but I went there today to confirm that they had it for sure. I got to see it. I'm getting the Wii with Zelda and a nunchuck controller for sure. I also ordered a classic controller, but they told me they weren't sure if those came in yet, because they had not unpacked all the boxes yet , so they didn't know if they would have my HD cables either. ah, well. That was at 10:00am today. I hope they find those goodies... At any rate, I'll at least have my Wii and Zelda at midnight. That's all that really matters. this day has been going by sooooo slowly... I tried to take a nap till I needed to leave for midnight but with the excitement I have for this release, I couldn't. I will probably be up all night playing lol good luck to you all who are camping or going in the morning. I hope you score! c'mon midnight!!!!
i was at walmart tonight and saw about 12 people lined up waiting. they said they were getting 36 in, which is good considering they only got 6 ps3s. i'll probably wait until after christmas to get mine. the inlaws give us $250 so that'll pretty much cover it.
There were a ton of people waiting outside of the local Target tonite. More even than there were for the PS3. I don't think they're opening at midnite so they're in for a long, cold night.
Been playing with mine for just over an hour!! Wii Sports boxing and baseball rock. Need to try the others
