Should be available in stores mid december. Makes me kick myself for not hoarding the things....

winsor said:toys r us in columbus ohio had a couple earlier today but i didn't get one as they required you to buy 3 games with the console

Hey Winsor,

I ran into a similar situation. A relative preordered one at toysRus a few weeks ago. They went to pick it up last Sunday and were told that they needed to buy 3 games and the warranty to pick it up. After arguing with them they then said only 3 games. They got the manager to come over and he said it was corporate policy. BS. I bought one the same day without having to buy 3 games.

I called corporate last Sunday to complain. I finally got a call back today. The CSR was polite. He said he'd call and speak to the store manager. The manager of course said it must've been a misunderstanding. They only offered to let you buy 3 games and save 30 bucks. Right. I was on speakerphone when they asked the second time and heard them distinctly say it was corporate policy to require 3 games.

I suggest you call corporate and complain too. These stores shouldn't be able to force us to buy additional stuff.

does anyone think camping will still be required for BB sunday?

They are shipping Wii's every week, you'll definitely get one before Christmas (150-200k/week).
I may try to go early but I'm seriously over the whole 'wait in line for a Wii' deal - it'll pain me to see them fully stocked on shelves in a couple weeks.

i plan to go maybe 1 hour ahead of opening. I'll bring something to do and its worth the time to make sure I get one for a gift before christmas.

I was also thinking an hour before opening (9am opening, right?), but it seems the news of the BB shipment is getting bigger, more people know....longer lines...sigh

yeah i think opening is 9am on sunday. If i don't get there early enough, oh well, but I refuse to stand there for 3+ hours

Waiting for stock on CC - Have a $200 GC to blow thanks to Vonage...

Hopefully I can get a couple tomorrow.... AND hopefully the eBay market doesn't bottom out with the new batch infused into the market.

hopefully it does bottom out.

Anyone know When BB opens Sunday in Mass? I called there 2 times tonight and they never answered the phone. The generic phone message said 11AM, but I know its different during the holidays.
