I can beat that. My store is giving a free Wii to everyone who buys two Wiimotes.

I got Trauma Center today. I heard the controllers shipped, but i can't find them anywhere. Gamestop said they got shit in. 1 nunchuck, 2 remotes. Stupid. ): If they don't get more, i will be sad.

While i was there, a big guy came in asking about PS3. He seemed really agitated and was swearing. "Fuck, can't get my PS3... SHIT. What am i going to do? FUCK!" and that sort of thing. I am afraid for anyone who has to stay at Gamestop alone.

Finch, you are seriously one of the greatest humans alive.

For those intending on getting component cables, you'll have to wait until December 5 to get the first party cables in a brick and mortar location. They're available for online purchase at this moment, though.

Well, Nintendo took the bullshit cheap route and put Wii Sports in a cardboard sleeve. Honestly, what is the additional cost for a case? A dime? Fuck you, Nintendo.

Fucking paying shipping 3rd parties are supposed to have them available day 1. I stopped at BB today and they have the area up and prices marked but said they weren't going to put the accessories out till most likely on launch day. Which is weird cause they have an assload of PS3 accessories up all ready including component cables and HDMI cables. Only Wii accessories you can buy are memory cards (since they're just SD cards and I noticed BB price on them has gone up it seems), some stupid Wii pack they're selling, which is another stand a controller glove and a 512 meg memory stick, and a 3rd party WiFi Adapter. If Nintendo had first party cables available day one in Brick and mortar stores I would buy them, but fuck paying shipping when I don't have to and can get 3rd party cables in a store. BB just better not sell out before I can get from the World Store till there on Sunday.

From reading NeoGaf where people started calling in to get the component cables yesterday it would seem Nintendo is all ready back ordered on them, and were not expecting this level of demanded hopefully that will cause them to get them into the stores faster.

Seriously. I was so pissed when I first heard about this. Making a custom sleeve just feels wrong, too.

So, best buy has a 3 pack of 1GB sd cards for $64.
