As someone who has shown an interest in Wii, you might like to know that on December 4, 2008, the Amazon.com Gold Box will feature video games for Wii gamers all day long.
CLUES (found at SD): 9am-11am: Remember the good ol' days? 11am1-1pm: Kind of like being a part of the Mickey Mouse club. 1pm-4pm: Who needs medical school? 4pm-5pm: No need to worry about avalanches. 5pm-6pm: Mario prefers it stirred, not shaken. 6pm-9pm: Now your Mii can boogie to the beat. 9pm-1am: You gotta get'cha, get'cha, get'cha, get'cha head in the game.
One more thing... the image says the "Wii Day" starts at midnight Pacific Time.

Or you can download and installthe wootalyzer application which will monitor it for you and set an alarm off when a new item is available. Http://www.wootalyzer.com it does a lot more than just woot.

In thinking about it more (and help from the Amazon board) , I think the MAIN deal (Deal of the Day) starts at midnight with the remaining lighting deals following the same typical schedule.

Yes, that's 2am central, however, the gold box deals usually don't begin until 6:00am PST. There's one deal that runs the whole day, the "Deal of the Day". The rest of them, that start at 6:00pst are the "Lightning Deals"

Gold Box Price: $25.98 (48% off) How did you find this?
Of course ... the reviews for the sleeve and the battery pack are not very good (well, the sleeve gets mixed reviews). And teh adapter is just a replacement power cord for the Wii, so generally not a must-have item.

Or can you add them to your cart and check out at the end of the day?
Aka....Will the deals hold thru the "next" time window.....
Last time they did one of these Wii deal days, I seem to remember adding something to my cart, then removing it, and was not able to add it again for that given price. But also, I added something toward the end of a deal, and it was still in my cart at that price 1/2 hour later. So, I believe you can put them in your cart and let it spill over to the next deal (I assume you'd do this to get free shipping). If the item is over $25, I'd place the order.
