[quote name='xnonfactor']I disagree. Wii's will be in short supply some places. Think about some soccer mom whose kids want a Wii. When she checks EB games and they are sold out her and some other soccer mom will get into a bidding war on Ebay. I don't think the money to be made on Wii's will be the money to be made on PS3's but I am looking to get at least one extra to try to sling on Ebay to offset the cost of the unit I am going to keep. Hell Pre-orders for the Wii are going for $600 and up on Ebay now. What will it be like a week before Christmas and they are sold out in metro areas with no other options......[/quote]
First off, I would never go to EB looking for any gaming system on launch day unless I pre-ordered. Between Wal-mart, Best Buy, Target, Circuit City, Kmart, etc. there will be plenty of places to pick up Wii's. Hell there's Costco too, they had close to 200 360's in EACH store in this area on launch day and those launched with closer to PS3 numbers than Wii numbers. Since there should be around a million Wii's hitting the streets on launch day if someone really wants one that Sunday, they shouldn't have a problem getting one. Pre-orders going for $600 on ebay right now have NOTHING to do with how easy or hard it will be to get one when they hit the streets, that's just stupid people overreacting and panicking.
