    just fyi :
    I spent $110 over list price + tax on a costco bundle (wii + zelda + excite truck) ---- I felt it was worth it as opposed to searching and searching and the time that costs me... You should be able to do the same on ebay...

      I plan on hitting up Best Buy early Sunday morning. I have about $150 in gift cards that I want to put towards the Wii.

        EBAY HINT

        I scored one for 350 shipped a few weeks back. Use Firefox and the reload tab plugin and reload the tab every two minutes. Use the advanced search options and only look for buy it nows going for 300-350. They are rare and ALWAYS check the shipping but I got one with free shipping for 350 buy it now. The auction was up for 6 minutes total.

          yeah, I was trying that first. The ones I was finding had $50 for shipping or more. But $350 is as good as you are going to get for sure.

            Yeah, it was a rare find but sometimes you'll find someone who just wants to make sure they get a sale and they throw it up just below everyone else's price. I figured I'd be paying $380 with shipping but I jumped on as soon as I saw FREE right next to it. Took me 12 hours of randomly checking but I scored one for 80 over retail if you figure in tax.

              Search ebay auctions at 3am during the week. I paid $50 over retail, shipping included.

                You guys are hardcore. With one or two compelling games, the WII is something I'm going to get but not worth $50 over MSRP. IMHO.

                  If you have kids it's a must have... If I was single I would not have paid a premium or even purchased...

                    Just an FYI...............Best Buy, Target, and Toys R Us had them today. I'm guessing they jumped the gun on that Sunday sale.

                      they really need two BB's in knoxville. Every time I go in there, whether its in the morning or at night, it's always extremely busy and there are never any systems when all the other BB's have them.

                        Amazon.com is going to have some tomorrow. here is a quote from the article

                        Should you read this article in time, Amazon will once again take orders for the Wii between 7 AM and 11 AM PST (10 AM to 2 PM EST) on December 29th. Once again, supplies are limited, so it's best to jump on the offer as soon as humanly possible. Good luck, brave troopers!

                          I know Bacardi mentioned it awhile back when the Wii first came out, but Dragonball Z is a fun little fighting game that makes good use of the controls. Definitly worth looking at if you enjoy fighting games of that style.

                            DBZ is an absolute blast on the wii. I am sure its every bit as good on the ps2 as well. But using the remote and nunchuk to execute certain moves is great fun.

                            And the game has a ton of extras to unlock

                                Some Targets have them in now, you might want to call first.

                                Plus other stores should have them for sale this Sunday. You might want to be there when they first open.
