So I asked our Nintendo-representative when we could expect to get one of those nice Wii demo-units in our store. Basically, as far as he knew, never. Nintendo only wants those units in places where they can have a person standing at all times to show people how to play. They're afraid to just leave them in stores because they think kids will start beating each other with the wiimotes (inevitable, but still not a very big deal if you ask me)! So stores will, at best, have the units on loan for a short time IF they can get someone to stand there and demonstrate it. At least for the foreseeable future.
If someone can think up a good way to make our own proprietary demo-unit without any chance of the parts being stolen or destroyed, I'm open to suggestions. I mean, we can't fail to have a playable Wii in a Nintendo-only store, can we?
