I figured since there was one for the PS3 then why have not start one for the Wii as well

.

So who got one today? I showed up at Best Buy at 11:10AM (store opened at noon) and there was a line all the way from the doors to around the side of the building. I figured there was no way I was getting one today but then I saw some blue shirts at the end of the line and decided I'd at least check when the next batch would be in. To my surprise they still had two left and they gave me ticket #102. I still had to wait until noon before the store opened and then it took another 45 min for me to actually go through the line to buy it but I got one. I also picked up Zelda and Red Steel plus an extra Wiimote, nunchuck, and 1GB memory card.

First impressions, Holy Cow this thing is tiny! I knew it was going to be smaller than the PS3 and XB360 but I wasn't expecting this. It's about the size of a standard internal DVD/CD drive for a PC. Setup was easy enough though you do have to download 2 large updates once you configure it for the internet. Well off to play Zelda.
