Wii goes on sale at Wal-Mart at midnight

[point5o]

On November 19th at 12:01am, The Nintendo Wii will be available for purchase at Wal-Mart. I saw the ad in my parents' mail. JLo, I know you wanted to document a video game geek line. This is the perfect opportunity. It's on a weekend too(Saturday/Sunday night), so the geeks and probably some dromies will be out in full force.

The closest Wal-Mart is in orange county. I talked to my local Best Buy and it's opening at 10am. And I'll be so pumped from the Episode 52 Picnic that I'll be up for it. Now if the episode is late a day or so 'cuz I needed sleep over editing... well. It's usually late almost a day anyways. I do promise to edit Episode 52 before I open the box though. And that's a promise. And you'll be there in line with me!

I'm really looking forward to that episode. Actually, any episode that you guys go out and frolic amongst the commoners is highly entertaining.

i cant wait to be there for the episode live.

Best Buy is gay, they open at 10am everyday. They are the best place to get line reactions at though. Most Wal-Marts are open at midnight so people won't be lining up outside an open store, if they do they're fucking retarded. Gamestop is opening at midnight too and I gaurantee you'll have atleast 20 people at each store picking up their presells and probably another 10-20 lined up just trying to get their hands on the Wii.

So is EB; my friends prebooked their Wiis at an EB in Smithfield(a small town about 30 mins east of where I live). I bought into the launch hype and drove out to bumfuck to preorder the system.

Damn, I wish i was living in the states at the moment... here in Belgium we have to wait till the beginning of December for the Wii. Of course this is when i fly back to the states for vacation so ill miss the launch here too

Good luck to everyone in the US/Canada on getting theirs!

The bastards at my EB Games aren't doing a midnight launch, but they are going to open up early. Wow we can say bastards.

I hope my boss lets me take it home as soon as they get to the stores. I already have it and my Twilight Princess payed off.

I have everything payed off, my extra controler, excite truck, Zelda, Red Steal. The only thing I have to do is walk in and walk out, I'm thinking I might go in at noon and fight off some people who couldn't get one.
