No more add to basket link.

I got lucky and got in for a Wii, extra controller and nunchuk, and Zelda. This was the most reasonable bundle.

It was at CC btw.

Went to local Costco couple days ago, asked about Wii, and the lady said they are getting 27 units only.

 

[Dacalo]

Walmart has bundle in stock go!

Yeah... I don't need 8 stupid games.

I just want Wii + Zelda.

I wish it was just zelda and extra wiimote and nunchuk rather than zelda and excite truck.

hopefully costco will sell excite truck too so I can take it back for store credit. and get something else.

Will they let you return it when they know you bought it as part of a package?

i'm confused why you would buy the bundle in the 1st palce if you didn't you want the games? unless thats the only place you can get a wii.

a wii, an extra controller (with nunchuck), and 2 games is like $400 already...unless i get a gamepad which will take like $50 off

controller + nunchuck = $70
gamepad = $20

I'm pretty sure you can't play Wii games with the retro controller.

damnit, looks like you're right...

get it from a meijer.

they have no clue if the game itself is on the floor to sell. the game would still be shrinkwrapped like as if you bought it seperately and not part of a bundle.

they would be able to look at the receipt. depends on how that is printed out i guess.

From what I have read, the Wii is wireless capable, is that built-in?

Yup.

 

[iamwiz82]

Hmm... BB has a 12% off coupon for Reward Zone members and it mentions nothing about Wii. I wonder how many my local store will have?

 

[pontifex]

I just printed out a list of 15 stores and their phone numbers.

I can't believe how many EB and Gamestop stores there are in the aea. There are 10 stores within 25 miles of my house. most of them are within 10-15 minutes of each other.

I have that too, but I think I'm going to use my Target 10% off card instead.

Costco keeps a record fo everything you've bought. When you try to return the game, they'll tell you that you didn't buy it there, because (I'm assuming) the Wii package has a separate UPC that they scan.

i am getting on board this whole wii phenom a little late but it's been growing on me i was just curious if some place are doing first come first serve, like either target, best buy or what other big stores might be doing that. Also anyone have an average idea of how many each store is getting. Lastly how late do you think a person would have to get in line to get one of these. say the store opens at 9 would 4 or 5 am be ok?
