Heads up: Wii Display at Target

[Kejoriv]

FYI:

Target has begun to sell Wii items.
At two of my local Target stores, they have Wii related items for sale:

bag, controller sleeves, dogtags, stand, Wii Target gift card

[business]

I'll probably invest in some of those Wii condoms.

Oh really? I was sure that I heard somewhere that component cable would be available on launch.

Shit. :/

Maybe they are. It didnt seem like the display was full though. Maybe those will go on sale at launch.

I was tempted to get a gift card just because they are cool. They light up with a blue LED all around the edges when you press the power button on the front.

All of the other stuff is too expensive.

I think the Componet Cables are online order only.

You should pick up those gift cards. Just check out the ebay autions on those things!

Just checked eBay. They seem to be a hit and miss auction. Wouldnt make much money off of them.

I think they will be, but only online from Nintendo.com and other online retailers (Best Buy, EB Games, etc.)

I hope they'll sell them in stores at some point.

Wow thats the first I have heard of the controller sleeves wait till the gang up at capitol hill get their hands on this. It will be as bad as the hot coffee number.

Say what? These had better not be like the gamecube's component cables. I want to be playing the Nintendo Wii on HDTV through component when I get it this holiday season.

How much are the Official component cables?

Yep, the component cable is online only, but this time they're not limited to nintendo.com. Apparently they'll be for sale at bestbuy.com, gamestop.com and ebgames.com as well (but they're not available for preorder anywhere yet). Retail price will be $29.99.

I wish they'd just sell the cables in-store, but at least they'll be more available this time around. I got lucky and managed to get my Gamecube component cable when Nintendo had a small restock of them about a year ago. I'm really hoping they'll be available for preorder before the launch date so I won't have to use the AV cable.

Sorry, I didnt have my cell on me. Forgot to add that there was also this Magnet set thing. - Gimmicky.

[Kejoriv]

Now, that I think of it. The displays and items were the same ones that I saw in the Wii pics that were posted on here a couple of weeks ago. Same cardboard display. I tried to search for it, but no luck.

We noticed the stuff about a week ago. We bought one of the controller cover sets (set of 3) (didn't need to spend 50 bucks on 6 Wii covers). They also had the dog tag thing, 'collectors' box with magnets and 2 different sets of covers. The stuff isn't made by Nintendo but is officially licensed.

If I'm not mistaken, there will be 3rd party component cables available in stores at launch, but unfortunately they will cost $59.99 or $69.99 or something like that if you can freaking believe that. I'm also a little dissapointed by the fact that we have to order the official Nintendo component cable online, it's almost like they don't want people to be able to play in 480p.


Hopefully, we will be able to order those cables pretty soon, and we can receive them pretty fast, so that on the actual launch day, we can be playing Wii Sports in all it's 16:9 480p glory, lol.
