    I'm heading up there tomorrow and I'm wondering if there are any to be had? Figure'd I'd save myself a trip if they aren't.

    Best way to determine if the store you are planning to go to is going to have any Wii's is to do the following:

    1) Flip a coin.
    2) If the coin lands on heads: no Wii's.
    3) If the coin lands on tails: no Wii's.
    4) If the coin lands on its side: a handful of Wii's, you will stand in line for 8 hours just to be told you missed the last one by one person.

    Highly doubtfull.

    I was there over thanksgiving and nary a Wii was to be seen. Might want to check out the different GameStops further uptown along Lexington.

    That Times Square store would sell out in minutes and not to mention the masses know to go there to hunt for one.

    Funny, I just talked with a friend in south america, and he says theres NTSC-U/C Wii's everywhere down there.

    The only issue is the price, going for $400 a piece, but thats due to customs tariffs.

    I was in Nintendo Store at Rockerfeller Plaza last week and the guy said they get deliveries daily in the morning, but there are queues every morning for them apparently....
