The manager of my local Game Crazy called tonight to let me know they already were restocked with Wii consoles!

Since my plans to pick one up on launch day fell through this was welcome news. I am now the happy owner of a Wii As an added bonus I was able to trade in my Cube for an extra 50% towards the price of the Wii. So far the Wii is awesome. Wii Sports is a ton of fun – I actually bowl better on the Wii then I do in real life. I also picked up a copy of Zelda and Monkey Ball; however, I haven’t had time to play them yet.

I returned home from my local Target empty handed – they had 132 Wii consoles to sell and I ended up two people away from the coupon cutoff point. I did have fun shooting the shit with some fellow Nintendo fans in line and also saw Erin & Nate. Unfortunately it seems like everywhere is sold out this morning (go Nintendo!) since a bunch of shitheads bought them up to sell on eBay. Unless I happen to find somewhere people overlooked it seems I’ll be waiting a few weeks to get my Wii when the stores are restocked.
