We think Circuit City and Virgin in Union Sq opens at midnight.

Nintendo World opening at 6am.

Other places to think about:

Toys R Us - not opening at midnight
Best Buy

UPDATE: If the rumors hold any truth, TRU may have only reserved 20% of their stockpile and may still have more units per store than ANY other retailer. If true, this would upgrade the Toys R Us ranking from "Last Chance" to "Best Chance"

I'm thinking about Target on Atlantic/Flatbush...they're getting 150 units according to WiiFinder. They open at 8am.

Wii looks like exercise. I don't wanna hold my arms out for an hour. Isn;t that how they punish people in the army? "Don't drop these buckets" or something.

fighting urge to take picture of roomie, who, after staying up all night to order wii, has passed out with glasses on, door open, and kitchen light on.

no post about ordering, i'm guessing it was unfruitful?

hate to bring it up again but this part is too funny:
OK, let's look at the ethics of that. As a self-taught guitar player -- and perhaps a bit of a puritan -- I subscribe to the "no pain, no gain" school of thought. In order to play the guitar, you should learn the guitar.

WAAAAAAAAA no one appreciates me anymore!

This device is called a nunchuk, since that's kind of what it looks like when you connect the two wireless controllers with a cord. But if you think you'll be able to whip them around like Bruce Lee, you're in for the first of many disappointments.

Gilbert Arenas wanted to get a Wii, but reports on his blog that he struck out:

Man, I couldn’t get it. I stood outside no hours and got nothing. That’s when you sit in your room and try to use your celebrityism. I didn’t get nothing. I knew I should have called and said I was D-Wade. “Um, hello, this is D-Wade … This is LeBron … Can I come over there and get one of them?” Then I would have had one.

Yeah the Wii was the only thing that could rouse me at 7:30am. It's really cool so far though the network/web channels aren't implemented yet. We got Zelda and an extra controller. BOXING IS FUN! Mike beat me in every Wii Sport except baseball, which was 0-0 for three innings.

― turbogirlwc8ko3.jpg (blastocyst), Thursday, 23 November 2006 02:31 (nineteen years ago)

bowling and tennis are probably the best multi player WII sports games. Although if we had the extra nunchuk controller, 1 on 1 boxing would be intense! oh and zelda was awesome until i turned into a goddamn wolf! what the fuck.
