So, who has it? I need to know who's place I gotta rob :cry:

Anyways, I decided to actually wait outside Wally World for a chance at one. I got there around 9:30pm and found out they had 28 available so my chances looked good! There was probably around 35 people ahead of me but not every single person was going to buy one (especially since there were kids as well). Well, two managers came out and told us what was going to happen. A few minutes before 12 they would hand out 28 tickets. You can only purchase one per person. One person cannot use someone else's credit card or checkbook. With credit/debit cards you get two chances to swipe. If it doesn't go through the next person in line gets the Wii.

They told us this around 10:50-11:00pm. What happens? Some of the parents send their kids in to get cash or gift cards!!

I ended up being #31 out of people who were actually buying. They should have had a rule of 1 per household.

I hate people.

BTW, if you actually got one, what are your thoughts? I've seen nothing but positive feedback on the internet aside from a few disc read errors (which might be attributed to people putting the disc in upside down. RTFM!).

I'm on the look out for one, I keep hearing some places getting some in stock but they are quickly snapped up. On the other hand I could of had like three ps3's by now.

Hey Shado(and anyone else who has a wii and a fascination with linux) I found something that might interest you.

Nerds have found a way to get data out of the wiimote's accelerometer.

How great is this? The guy at my local gamestop held a Wii for me because he wanted them to go to gamers and not EBAY.

I would say that ps3 != FTW cause it is so expensive!
