Who knows when you will be able to go to a store and buy wii. Last year, they said in February, whoops, they were very wrong. Most peoples opportunities to buy wii consoles for retail are very limited. It has been over a year, and the Nintendo Wii is still not in stock and it is very hard to buy a wii in stores. So instead of waiting 5 months, and wasting your time, just buy a wii online on Ebay for $50 over retail. Or before you know it, Christmas will be rolling around again, and your only option will be to buy a Wii console for $300 over retail.
