Wii campout

Did anyone camp out for teh Wii last night? I got one for my little bro! 12 hrs in the freezing cold. Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!


ALOT of people went home empty handed. We kept telling the people behind us that the manager had already counted heads and said that they only had 15 (I was at target stow, ohio). The people STILL FRIGGIN STAYED. Wierd.

I'm surprised they have been so hard to come by, I thought they were planning on releasing enough for a steady flow of them to be availible, but I guess with the holidays and the Wii being awesome

Still happy that I did the hour wait when the did the preorder to get mine, definetly worth the wait and as soon as the start releasing more games I'll be happier. Only 2 months to mario party 8

Totally true. I guess I'm lucky though b/c the wife lets me buy whatever electronics I want.

Yeah... I am definitely lucky

Oh, and on topic... I'd never camp out for any item purchase. I'd rather wait until the hype dies down...
