Mr. Krystal Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I got up early Saturday morning to assist my friend waiting in line. He was fourth in line at 9 AM. We waited all day, which flew by. Not boring at all, but a little cold. At midnight, he got his Wii and I went across the street to pick up my reserved one at Gamestop. We played Wii Sports Boxing and Bowling and a little Zelda before bed at 3:30 AM. Now I'm unpacking and catching up on all my news and work while my Wii downloads some updates behind me.

Guest Chiro-Chan Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I'm not getting one until Brawl is released. Brawl not as a launch title=Sad Chiro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig11 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Brawl would be great as a launch title.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZComposer Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I managed to find a place that had 40 units, and no line at 10PM. O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chiro-Chan Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Brawl would be great as a launch title.. Yes, it would have. Shame it wasn't. I even heard it was coming out NEXT FALL. WHY?! *sobs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONE_HELLCAT Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 1st Brawl being delayed just means it'll be better. 2nd I camped out in front of my Target. I got the 12th one. For those of you that have it and think the Blue LED is broken, it's not. It's not supposed to be on all the time, what a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZComposer Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I was disappointed by that too. Every freaking pic Ninty showed of it had the light on. Oh well.. Maybe someone will come up with a hack to allow it to stay on all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONE_HELLCAT Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 You can send it an email and that way the light stays on until turned on. I hope Nintendo comes up with some sort of update to give you the option to turn it on. Yeah, it's just a stupid light, but I'm just particular about little things like that.

ONE_HELLCAT Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Just hope this is a sign that you're not getting the early production models. Some early ones have multiple problems that require them to be sent back to Nintendo for repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Nintendo has said that they never planned to have it on all the time, but as a guide in dark areas on where to put the disk, but yes an update would most likely allow it to be on all the time. I imagine Nintendo will do it soon, because so many people want that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludvig11 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Wouldn't it just be some simple uppdate to download from the Wii? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilacs Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I didn't get one yet, but when I was speaking with my local gamestop owner he said the next shipment was coming next Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sol-Ratcht Saporro Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I don't know what hurts more....The fact that I wasted an extra 100 bucks or the fact that I wasted an extra 100 bucks? At least you got yours fair game. But what kinda shipping did you get? FedEx is no good....DHL....YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 well...the last time I got something from DHL....they missed my apartment and delivered the package to another place, took me 2 weeks recover the stuff they lost..... , now that I think of it...today I saw a DHL van around the street...I just hope they didn't do the same mistake again...well is not exactly a shipping, half gift half paid,and a friend is doing me the favor to send it to me, and he always uses FedEx (they at least work fine with me xD), I'm guessing he did the same thing again..., I should be getting my package...on the next two days >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taco-Man Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Got up before 7, got there around 7:15, and got the 24th ticket out of 26. Interesting to see all the people for the next hour coming to Target to see if they could get a Wii. Once we were in the store, some guys came in to see a whole bunch of Wiis and were glad, until they saw the line was off to the side behind the shelves of stuff XD Two hours at least put into getting it. I was the youngest in line until a 5 year old game. If I don't get either Wii TP nor Excite Truck within the next two days, I'm ordering 'em off EB's site.

ONE_HELLCAT Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Wow, you must live in a place with a relatively low population. My Target had 60 Wiis and has tons of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
