any suggestions on where to get a wii in the us? (web sites or store suggestions) ive checked most places tho

Are they having a Wii sell-out again? confused

I would say check the closest stores to you that have Wiis available (usualy)..., and go to them as often as possible until they have one... That is the only way I could get mine when it happened to sell-out within an hour of arrival in stores...

I got mine at the Nintendo Store in NYC in 2007, because it was always sold out at every store near me. At the Nintendo Store, they got like 100 or so every morning, and sold all of them within the first two hours since opening time.

...I don't know where you could buy one. Check Gamestop, Toys R Us, Best Buy, Walmart, Circuit City, Sears, Target, etc. See if they have some available. If not, tell them to call you when a shipment arrives and tell them to reserve one for you. If all else fails, search online.

If buying online, I wouldn't recommend paying a ridiculous price for one. A Wii list price is $250, which comes with the system, a controller, wires, Wii Sports, and other crap. Don't pay more than like $300 for one.

...In short, I love my Wii, and it was a great buy. Worth every penny.

Make sure it's new, and not "refurbished." Also, how much did you pay for it?

Okay, yeah. Good deal, face price.

I'd suggest getting another Wii-mote and 2 nunchucks (assuming you're not the only gamer in your family), and maybe a game or two.

Yeah, Mario Kart is a good game.

...And I don't remember, because I got my Wii two years ago, but I'm pretty sure that the Wii comes with just one Wii-remote and not any nunchucks.
