Wii online pre-order
This Thursday evening on ebgames.com. Unfortunately you're stuck with a bundle and they are not guaranteeing launch shipment. This from the newsletter I just received:
And so here Wii are. Less than two weeks and counting until the most innovative product the video game industry has seen hits the streets.
This Thursday evening (CST), November 9, your opportunity to get in on the excitement arrives when our Wii bundle becomes available for pre-order online at EBgames.com. You'll get the best games, accessories and more in one convenient package delivered right to your door - all for under $699 plus tax and handling!
Quantities are extremely limited and there will be a limit of 1 Wii bundle per household, limited to US delivery only. Ordering a bundle does not guarantee shipment at launch and orders will be shipped on a first-come, first-serve basis. The bundle will be removed from the site as soon as we have reached our expected quota.

$699 bundles? The Wiis won't be that hard to get.

Wow, nearly 3 times the price of the console. Are we looking at $1500 PS3 bundles?

I stopped dealing with them after they started pushing those bundles.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

A $700 bundle for a $250 system?! And a system that's supposed to ship in even larger quantities than originally anticipated? These guys are nuts.

Yeah, it's totaly insane but these bundles will sell out in minutes, watch. And if you check on eBay this $250 system has been going for over $1,000. It's the end of civilization as we know it. I hope it doesn't happen but I am waiting for the first report that someone gets killed for a PS3 on launch day.

On a different note I don't like the controller on this thing.

Holy Geez...the scary thing is something this twisted actually seems possible given how everybody's foaming at the mouth over these systems.
