i got two. i camped outside best buy in a line of 70 people for almost 30 hours and it was well worth it. we brought out a barbeque and a couple tvs. it was pretty tight to say the least. i wish console launches like this happened more often |
I camped out to. it was cold, and my dad showed up at 3a.m. and told me to go home. Which was nice. |
Yeah, but did you or your dad snag one?

We're not losing Bamboo as the reviewer right?
Seems like there were some problems last time too. Hope this overhaul makes things easier on everyone involved.

That's why rural Wal-Mart rule. 4 hours, 14 people, 17 Wiis. I might edit this post later with my Friend Number. :p |
yeah i thought about waiting at the 24 hour walmart but i didn't want to be cramped in the layaway department. i checked it out and they shoved about 30 people in it. i probably would have gone crazy in there. camping outside best buy was awesome because we got away with having a smash bros and texas hold em tournament and even a barbeque. we drank a TON of beer also and even considered setting up a game of beer pong. there were so many people running around with alcohol till about 4 am. im still puzzled at how we never got caught, especially being in the middle of scottsdale arizona. but hey 30 hours got me my wiis and first dibs on the selection of games and accessories. i cant wait for the next nintendo launch party ;p
wanna be friends? my wii number is 6322 1163 0866 8009

Nope, just some changes to the column itself. Can't say anything further.

The new column will have laser light shows, pyrotechnics and will be presented in 23 different languages.

And no discussion link to start another 40+ reply thread to say "Omg no Shelf Life, I so sad" to up our post counts, either Ah well, we'll live...sometimes I forget that not everybody lives within two hours of whatever family they're visiting for Thanksgiving, so that's my bad.

Amazing that there's nothing and we can still make the thread bigger than 3 pages.
