Legend of Zelda, best launch title ever?

DIE!!!





three weeks left [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I'm getting one...but I'm most likely going to wait until after the holidays. I'd like to try out a kiosk machine first anyway.

I'm with miles. But my reason is because I'm broke and I have to see if anyone buys me one for xmas. hehe.

be careful when going out to your cars [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

There are plenty of Wii's to go around, unlike the PS3.
I'm quite positive you'll be able to casually walk into a store and pick one up.

Aren't there like 500,000-1,000,000 units for the US launch?
Compare that to the paltry 180,000 units or so, for PS3.

I'm only gonna bother getting one if I win one with my Gears of Time level at an upcoming lan party... and even then I don't foresee myself using it much...

flaagan is such a negative nancy, with all your xbox360 is the next generation and its already been here a year mumbo jumbo and wiik sauce crap. i think a Wii360 is an excellent combination

Can't wait till tomorrow morning! I'll be picking one up!

Go to the nearest mountain range and freeze yourself. Then have someone come to thaw you in three weeks. It's a foolproof plan.

I can't help myself, really. All I've done today is search youtube.com for wii videos for: Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda:TP, FF:CC:Chrystal Bearers, Excite Truck, Mario Strikers: Charged, Dragon Warrior (railed...eek!), Batallion Wars ii, Super Monkey Ball, and Ray Man Rabbids.

Hopefully more stuff will hit the net soon to curb my anxiousness. But, sadly I'm having to force myself to wait. I've got hospital bills still left to pay since our baby was born...and I should probably wait until after the holidays and my Xbox sales. But I haven't been this excited about a console in the last 20 years. And I'm proud to say I've been WOW free for 8 months now. Yay! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

oh gawd, 1 hour and 14 minutes left here!!! ahhhh

I went out to my local 24 hour Walmart, but they said they only got 27 units in, and they were all reserved as of noon. People were still lined up outside, but they said they're not getting any more in until probably after Christmas. Same at the nearest Gamestop, according to the sign they had posted.

I'm totally buying one in February when they come out for real though.

Does anyone know if Toys"R"us, Target, or Best buy are going to open earilier in the morning for the launch? I really don't want to wait more than an hour, so I might try to go a little early to a shopping center that has four of the major chains that are selling Wii's and try my luck. It probably won't work out, but oh well. I called up the local Wal-mart tonight but they said they already have more people in line than units for the midnight launch.

Luckily I can buy a Wii in two weeks from where I work, but I'm so excited for this launch I don't want to wait [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img], even though I know I should.

my brother got his at walmart, they gave it to him at midnight, he called me when he got it. he camped out and waited 26 hours to get it. haha but once he got it home he had to wait awhile to play cause it had to update on the internet...i wont get to play it until christmas tho.. boooo

target up in simi valley claims to have around 75-90 units for sale. We'll see if their just talking crap. so I got 2 friends up there camping. played it on thurs, lucky bastard that works at eb got one early and brought it to class. Red steel sucks nuts. just be warned....

same here... not sure why they have delayed the Japanese launch...

I'm looking forward to putting movies on my 2gb SD card and watching them on my Wii - as I don't have a computer at home any more.

I heard its cuzz the holiday shopping season is differ in the us or something. But still weird that their waiting for the japanese for 3 weeks, unless they have nifty treat for japanese versions only.

Unfortunately I don't believe thats the case. Me, my girlfriend and a group of our other friends camped outside our 24 walmart for 11 hours to get one today. They had 35 units, and there were at least 30 people behind us at one point, and that wasn't even late into the night. While I was at the counter exchanging my voucher for the system there were still many people coming in thinking they would be in great supply. Keep in mind also that I live in New Braunfels, TX, with a population of 50,000 that is comprised mostly of people who do nothing but drink beer, swim at the river, go to dance halls, and listen to americana. The walmart told me that they expect only a few more, if not just one shipment before the end of the year. I also drove by Target to see some friends and they had the entire stock already reserved by people in tents - same with circuit city and best buy. I also managed to grab 3 copies of zelda and 2 more remotes. Between me, my friends, and our friend who runs the local lan center we have all the launch titles covered. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] IM EXCITED... I already played a bit of excite truck and watched red steel/zelda at the lan center and it looked awesome.

Do you think that the price of the Wiis on ebay will increase right before Christmas? There's little point to both me and my girlfriend having one since we're always together.

they are getting like 6 to 800 right now... i would sell that crap.

Damn here in Edmonton, it's completely sold out, there were crazy lineups at bestbuy, toyrus, and futureshop. I guess i'll have to hold up till next shipment...

Heh, over here in the Netherlands every store that wants to sell them get a max of 20 wii's to sell... I already pre-ordered and paid of mine at a local gaming store so im 100% sure to get one *yay* :P

They release the wii at the 7th of December over here so if anybody wants one and really cant handle the wait for the next shipment let me know and I might be able to pre-order another one

my wii is fun! it takes some getting used to to play obviously. i am only like 4 foot away from my tv so it can be ackward at times, they say you should be at least like 6 - 8 feet away. Any other lucky kids out there?
