Wow Ididn't think I could come up with that many, but I just looked and I actually have 10 games I can dump with no regret : ) leaving me with a scant 30 left to play
No shit huh? I may swing by my Gamespot and bring my camera with me.AniHawk said:I just called my store to check up on the situation. A couple people are already camping.

It's ****ing cold as hell outside though, so I still doubt it.
BTW, is yours in a mall, or is it outide, and is it 200below outside?
Kurashima said:Damn, I live like half an hour away from the store I pre-order Zelda in, and I drive to school Monday morning at 7:00, half an hour in the opposite direction. They'd better not run out of pre-orders, since I don't want to take any chances when it comes to not playing Zelda right off the bat.
The GC trade-in is nice, though I just started playing Pikmin 2... Paying a $200 deposit (I'm in Canada) is ridiculous though.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Nintendo-Wii-Sy...ryZ62054QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemThis is not a hoax or some kid that thinks he's funny to post a pre-order ad. I can guarantee the highest bidder a Nintendo Wii. This auction is to save you the trouble of camping out and hunting down a system. It's likely that 90% of all Wii systems have already been claimed by employees and that ebay prices will double or triple by Thanksgiving. The sooner you buy, the more you will save. The same thing happened with the Xbox 360 and will also happen with the PS3. It's a fact that the Wii will do the same. Bid today while prices are low and laugh at your friends when they are paying 1000-2000 for thiers!
Only 500,000 are estimated be released in the beginning in all of the United States. Well, now YOU can guarantee yourself getting one and avoid all of those 10 hour lines that you probably saw during the release of the xbox.

SuperPac said:For a system that should supposedly have no eBayability, the Wii seems to be doing OK... there are a bunch of other Wii pre-order auctions that are getting bids over MSRP.
Mejilan said:I have no idea if he's being serious or not, but if you're going to camp out like that (be it for a movie, a console launch, or whatever), then doing it with friends is the best way. Card games, board games, pizza parties, DS/PSP multiplayer-fests, fart-competitions. Tons of ways to keep yourselves busy. Not to mention you can watch eachothers' backs when it comes to nature-calls!
In talking with an amiable EB Games employee killing after-hours time outside of his store in the Southern California area, we have learned that his store, and quite possibly the whole EB/GameStop chain, will only authorize as many Wii pre-order sales as they were allowed to sell for the PS3. In the case of this particular store, a maximum of 8 Wii pre-orders would be guaranteed to those willing to fork over the $50 deposit. Two of these systems would be made available to store employees if desired, bringing down the public number to only 6.
Amir0x said:that would make no sense, unless they started this Wii pre-order stuff without knowing their allocation AT ALL
WindyMan: So, how many Wiis are you guys going to be able to pre-sell?
EB Guy: Six.
WindyMan: ???
WindyMan: Wait, only six?
EB Guy: Yeah, I know.
WindyMan: How many PS3s did you guys pre-sell?
EB Guy: Six.
WindyMan: ???

If Wii becomes this year's Tickle-Me Elmo, better to get it now instead of battling the Wal-Mart gauntlet and getting elbowed in the face by some soccer mom desperate to get her child the next big thing.Nicktals said:Good, then I'll have no trouble getting one on launch day with no preorder. If they're only going to do 10-20 Wiis per store, then that means a lot left over.
EDIT: I can NOT believe people are camping overnite. To preorder. A system which may have 2 million units at launch, and at least 1 million......I mean, that's crazy, right?
