Target's ad for 1/21 just popped up and the Wii is advertised. Prepare to camp.
oh god.. I don't know if I have the heart to
last time I camped, they had just enough ticket to give to the guy in front of me. That pretty much crushed my spirit.
Best Buy may be holding Wiis for the 21st as well. We'll have to wait for that ad to come out but if that's the case, Best Buy opens 2 hours later than Target. If you strike out at Target just roll over to the closest Best Buy.
Oh God no... I'm going to be back at uni and I only have a Target close to my apartment....... since it is already advertised, that means there WILL be a line, and captain cocksucker the eBay scalper will probably be there 3 days in advance to buy the whole damn stock.
Though... this DOES give me the chance to kick his fucking ass.
I am skipping the GC version of TP because I want to celebrate the Wii with a brand new Zelda.
See, I played TP GC so I could celebrate the end of the GC's fine era with a brand new Zelda.
I just got Paper Mario, that'll be my 'Cube's swan song.
apparently chibi robo was mine.
but since the wii games seem to be a bit...subpar (and still going for new game prices) i will probably finish up paper mario and a couple others i still got kicking around.
maybe finally get eternal darkness, which i hear great things about.
what about that paper mario platform-ish game and the donkey kong flying one?
are they canceled? I thought it was just delayed.. wonder if it's getting moved to wii.
someone posted on dvd talk, privy to the ads before they go out, that targets, BB and CC will be advertising the system again for sale between the 21st and 27th of this month.
this is supposedly the big release that targets and BB have been "holding" (although, targets have also apparently been selling wiis. so i have no clue about that)

I find employees are very poor at following orders, especially those that involve holding stock, and selling only one per customer.
Alright Nintendo, I'm steadily approaching the 360 event horizon. If Best Buy does not receive a waggle of wii, one of which I am able to easily retrieve, you will have forefeited your chance; I will walk out of that store with a new console, regardless of already owning TP.
You could do a lot worse. I have a 360 and a Wii. Don't get me wrong, the Wii is great, but there isnt a whole lot out for it right now. The 360 has a LOT of amazing stuff to play while you wait for the Wii to hit its stride.

I HAVE SPOKEN!
Ding-dong! May I interject for a second? As a 360 owner for the past year, if there's one thing I've learned, it's that if you're craving Wii, the games on 360 just don't cut it. In fact, just thinking about those awesome little Wiis with those little, itty-bitty wiimotes that just fit in your hand and control your game whenever you move it... just makes me want to burn my 360 down. Come on, Pookie, let's burn this motherfucker down! Come on, Pookie! Let's burn it, Pookie! Let's burn this motherfucker down! Let's burn it down! Let's burn it! So you guys maybe should just suck it up and wait for a Wii.

Well, that does make sense... but a shopping mall full of zombies is also making a persuasive, albeit less articulate, case. I guess I'll know in a week.

You really can't go wrong with a 360. I love the Wii, but unless you're an absolute Zelda fanatic (like me), you're really not missing much by waiting six months.

I had a roommate that did the exact same thing to me. Damn I'm glad he moved out.
I sold my gamecube while "D/V out GCN" were still in demand.

there is no hate for the gamecube version.

I probably would of bought the GCN version if I had the system.
I didn't want a GCN and a Wii. since I knew wii was 100% backwards compatible. so I sold my GCN when opportunity reared it's head.
sold the system for $100 and the cable for $50.. don't think it was too bad for a system with so much play time on it.

Well, acutally, I'm pretty sure they were acting before 3...
I'll never look at Full House the same way again.
Everywhere you look, everywhere you go, there's a face, of somebody who needs you...

My frothing demand for Wii increases
I saw like 20 copies in the store today. Would of bought one, but I'm out of town and was too lazy to pack my Wii.
It ships tomorrow. Most stores won't have it until Tuesday.
I'll be picking it up at the same time as PW2.
I hope. Didn't have the cash to preorder both.
