Wanna Wii? How to quickly find them before anyone else

So! You’ve heard about Wiis

and you want a Wii and you crave a Wii and yet….you just can’t find the darn Wii!

But not to fear! Thanks to Tekeeze, there are several tricks you can use to better your chances. To wit:

Use a Wii tracker. Websites like WiiTracker, Outastock, and Weebly track inventories at hundreds of retailers, such as Circuit City, WalMart, and Dell, and post notices as soon as new Nintendo Wiis become available at any of them.

Get cozy with store owners. Once they trust you, they’ll tell you when new shipments are expected in. I suggest subtle flattery, and bribes if you’re feeling confident. Also, check out smaller, less popular stores. There’s a lot more competition to find a Wii at Wal-Mart than at Randy’s Video Game Shack….MORE….

I’d also like to add, you can post at your local Freecycle.org in the off-chance your millionaire neighbors are cleaning their house and want to reduce their clutter.

And don’t forget the Wii Finder Widget! Add it to your MacOS dashboard.

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-30 Summary: A real workout. I love it and hate it at the same time. I hate it because I hate to exercise, but I love it because it’s a great intense workout. My husband has joked that if I keep this up, I’ll mess around and get in shape. The workouts are no more than 30 minutes. The trouble I have is in making sure the wii-mote and numchuck are facing the right directions at the right time. With some exercises, this can take a minute to get the right rythm, but it’s not hard and the trainer waits for you to get it right. With three settings of …more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-11-06 Summary: My husband has appropriated this mat for his REAL yoga class! I bought this mat when I first bought my Wii, but since we have carpet, it turned out I didn’t really need to use it. However, my husband needed a backup mat for his real-life, 110-degree crazy Bikram yoga class, so he borrowed it one day. He said he didn’t mind that it said “WiiFit” on it. Turned out that this mat is much better than the other ones he’d purchased before, and it’s also longer, so better for a tall man. He now uses my WiiFit yoga mat for yoga all the time! …more
