Can someone explain to me where all of the Nintendo Wiis are? I’ve been trying to get one since it was originally released way back in 2006. I actually stood in line at a local EB Games where I was 2 spots behind the cutoff mark. It has now been 8 months, and I have only seen a Wii in stock once and that was at the Super Target about 6 weeks ago.
So, where are they? According to the Wii Wikipedia entry, as of June 2, 2007, Nintendo has sold over 3,121,280 Wiis in the North American market alone and 8.2 million worldwide. Where are these things being sold at? Are the kids on summer vacation running to EB, GameStop, Target, Wal+Mart, Toys R Us, and every other store under the sun and buying the Wiis up to sell on EBay? It’s possible with 2200+ auctions up on the board.
You’d think though with the number of retail stores around the Knoxville area that the chances of grabbing a Wii would still be pretty good. Apparently not. The ninja looters have them all.
