I understand the whole supply and demand thing, but I figured it&#8217;s well past Christmas now, shouldn&#8217;t the flow of Wii&#8217;s produced be back to normal? Is it really THAT COOL of a machine that Nintendo can&#8217;t keep up with demand?<\/p>\n<p>None of the stores I called in this town seem to know when or if they&#8217;re going to be getting any. Why is it so secret? What kind of store doesn&#8217;t know what kind of inventory is coming in a shipment? Seems ridiculous to me.<\/p>\n<p>Ignore me. I&#8217;m just frustrated that I can&#8217;t find one within a 50 mile radius AND I can&#8217;t find any of the bastards online either unless I want to pay WAY above retail and yeah, that&#8217;s not going to happen. People who do that are stupid. (Hopefully none of my friends or relatives have done this otherwise I will feel bad for calling them stupid.) Yeah, the kid and I really want to buy one, and we have the funds to get it, but we feel like we&#8217;re standing in a store waving our money around but no one will take it.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s weird.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why the feck is it so damn hard to buy a Wii?
