The Wal Mart near me always has at least a few whenever I stop by.

I wouldn't call Wii Fit a definite system seller, heck I wouldn't call Wii Fit a definite anything

Wii Fit is already huge in Japan and Europe and is going to be huge here in the U.S.

I saw another big shipment at my local Target yesterday. The Wii's are becoming more and more available here in Maryland.

I've still only seen a Wii in stock 3 times since they've been out, and I've never seen more than 1 system in stock at a time. They're still very rare around the MS/AL area.

Finally starting to show up around here, but aren't exactly flying off the shelves.

Got 70 of them in for last Sunday's ad. Sold maybe 20 that day and held the rest for the Wii Fit launch.

As of close yesterday, we still have more than 20-and we've got them displayed on the sales floor so people KNOW we have them.

(Wii Fit's another story LOL)

The funny thing is, for the first time ever I finally saw Wii's in a Toys R Us store in the display cabinet. But thats because they were sold out of Wii Fit.

Only once have I seen a Wii in a retail store NOT as an overpriced bundle-for-profit, and that was about 7 months ago.

Yesterday I was in Best Buy and I heard someone (a man with his family) asking a store employee about the Wii's availability. The young clerk responded that they get a few each week and limit purchases to 2 a person, and that he sees the same couple of people coming back week after week to snatch them up. That just makes me so mad, knowing that they are hoarding these consoles for resale on ebay or wherever at inflated prices! Oh well.. that's the world we live in these days.
