Nice find, though Wii's are staying in stock for longer and longer. Of course that's relative. For example Amazon had them in stock for 45 min. last week instead of the 3-5 min. of the month before.

Sold out online now but they lasted awhile. Thanks for posting Terabyte.

fyi

Gamestop in Delmar here still has some if anyone wants one. It was the only place I could get 2 for the nieces and nephews last year and that was when they didn't even take pre-orders.

Edit: Delmar, San Diego CA

It's unbelievable that Wii's supply is still outpacing demand by such an amount after all this time. How long has it been now, a year and a half? Talk about dropping the ball, Nintendo.

Dropping the ball? LOL

I don't think Nintendo should increase manufacturing speed. It's not like there is high demand with low number of total sales. They are selling the pants off of these things and killing everyone else with their total number of sales. The difficultly in getting one also creates an artificial demand.

lol...they have the supply right where they want it. The demand is still outweighing the supply so they can continue to keep prices high for longer. Once the market is saturated the price will have to go down :/

I've been seeing them around more and more.

About a month ago, I was at the Target in Riverdale, NJ. They were just putting out 12 on a Saturday and they were still there the next day. Last week I was at Costco in Wayne, NJ and they had about 30 in stock.

Found lots in stock this week in Seattle: Fred Meyer, Circuit City, Target, and Game Stop all had units.

Yup...

Artificial demand perception - "OMG its still impossible to find! It must be the greatest thing evarrrr!!"


6months later...

"Ok, i've had my wii for a month, can i have a real console now?"

 

[handydave]

I saw about 20 of them at the BestBuy in West Paterson, NJ tonight.

Supply finally has caught demand.

 

[Tristicus]

We probably have Wiis at every store around here....

I suppose that's relative all right

I got my mom a Wii Fit on wednesday. Getting there at 9:20 was early enough to get the first one. In talking to an employee while waiting for the store to open, he said they still won't ever make it to day 2. Said they usually get 10 and they're gone by 11 or 12. 12 on a slow day. He said a couple times they got 50 or so, but that's been on sundays (ad days) and they're gone by 3 or 4.

When I got the Fit, they happen to have held 10 systems back for the Fit release so I finally got myself a Wii

I have all the new consoles except for the PS3. I play the Wii the most by far. It's great for parties and drinking games.

 

[PaidLess]

My store has some Wii's. Supply is catching up now with the demand. Yea the demand is still high for the Wii's especially since the Wii fit came out.

 

[M1A]

Wii fit what a joke do some real good and go outside or to the gym.......
