What store did you get it from. I just checked again yesterday at Wal*Mart, Toys R Us, and Best Buy. None of them have received any nor could they tell me when some where due in.

Best Buy and Target got new shipments today, nation-wide from what I have seen. Went to Best Buy at 9, waited an hour, got one. They had 51, I was about the 30th person in line.

I also found one yesterday. I went to a Best Buy half an hour before they opened, but they only had 36 and I was #37 in line when they handed out tickets. So, I went to the other Best Buy in town and got in the even longer line there. It turns out they had 44 and I was #44!

FYI, one of the Best Buy employees at the first store told me that they were expecting a new shipment late this week.

Oh yeah, that boxing is fun... my girlfriend says her mom likes to play it to take out all her pent-up aggression My 14-year-old brother is a beast at bowling, and my 4-year-old sister likes all the sports...

Twilight Princess is just awesome though...

I also got this other game called Far Cry: Vengeance... no idea if it's any good, but the guy at the store recommended it so it's either really awesome or he was trying to sell off his last few copies Haven't played it yet though - been too busy with Twilight Princess

Don't forget a strap. I've seen a nasty picture of someones girlfriend he bashed in the eye while playing Tennis, and a number of televisions with a hole in the screen when the wiimote flew off.

...Is it actually called a wiimote?

'Cause if it is, I just might have to go 'hahahaha' every time someone mentions it.
