jackalope14 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 My dad and my brother are waiting in a car line at Game Stop right now. I really hope that they get one for my brothers sake because I know he will be pretty disapointed if he doesnt, even though I told him they will probably be sold out at most stores.

How2PK Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 PS3 sold like 50 extra units in the past 10 minutes. Wii sold over 4000...Seems a bit weird. It's fake that thing, right?

Over here in england, we should be getting a second shipment before Christmas. If they come back empty handed, phone around in a few days time.

How2PK Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Yea, I could write down something like that as well. :P It's strange, PS3 only sold 250 units from the period of 17:15 till 17:58, where Wii sold 2000. That's weird, right? :P Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's weird, right? :P Well PS3 came out Thursday, and Wii came out today. So the rush to get the PS3 is basically over, and the Wii rush is still going on. I do wonder about the accuracy of it though. If less than 300,000 were sold this morning, that should mean there are a lot still out there, right? I wonder if I should go around today and see if I can find one somewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anesthesia Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Well PS3 came out Thursday, and Wii came out today. So the rush to get the PS3 is basically over, and the Wii rush is still going on. Also the PS3 had more limited supplies didn't it? That should mean it will dry up completely for a while.

And people are paying like $2000 for a console on e-bay. Why do they do that when there are 500.000 left to be sold? That's just strange.

I don't think anyone knows the true amount they had to sell in America, but i know this: They only ended up with 80,000 to Launch in Japan.

darkmage099 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 If Sony were smart, they would've waited until they had millions of PS3s to sell. This way, those ebayers wouldn't make the profit; Sony would. All the ebay buyers would go to the store since the store would have supplies, and they wouldn't have to camp. But Sony is dumb.

trapical Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I came on this topic stating FACTS that 6 out of 1600 teenagers who were buying a Wii and then you people flame me and expect me to just sit there and accept it? Oh facts huh? Personal accounts are now considered facts? Sure, well then a recorded online pollon a neutral site is "FACT" I'm sorry but just exactly how is this less reputable then your informal report a single high school. GameFAQS is one of the largest sites for consol gamers on the net. You know, gamers? The people who buy the systems... I want you to go to a Sony forum and have 10+ people obsessed with the subject (like most of you) and see how long you last Yea thats the funny thing. This isn't a Nintendo forum. For you to find Sony fans you need to go to a Sony fan site. Whereas Wii fans are everywhere. Check the Ebaum's forums: Wii fans. Check the StudentDoctor forums: Wii fans. Check the LaserCommunity forums: Wii fans. Oh and check the Tip.it forums: Wii fans. So, yea go and play in the Sony forum while the rest of the net agrees with pretty much all the pollsI have seen online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pompey_spud Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 well said trapical, i love it when people really do the research to put ...people...like blue107 in their place. wonder how he'll discredit all those polls and call you a flamer now..... if those sales figures are for the first day in america, who are 3rd place in regions who like ninty, imagine, if you can, what it will be like in Japan..... :ohnoes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_ice Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Woot! Got my Wii 8 minutes after release, hand-delievered to us straight out of shipping at the local Wal-Mart. I was 6th in line and only waited like an hour (small town). Wii sports is sooo awesome, and everything works so smoothly! Now I just gotta go to town and pick up Zelda and Im set! =))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam007 Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Blue, their point is that you shouldn't even be on this thread if all you're willing to talk about is the Ps3. This is a positive thread about the release of the wii. We don't want to hear a single thing about the ps3 on it. And you keep comparing them, and saying how much you dislike the wii - even though you haven't tried it. Despite your prejudging the wii to decide you hate it already, nobody cares. At all. Annyywwaayyyy. I got a wii today. I've been playing it all day, and my parents are playing video games and are hooked on it just as much as my brother and I are. I honestly didn't expect them to have an interest, but they're playing a game of golf on wii sports right now against each other, and absolutely having a great time. I'd recommend this system to anyone and everyone. :) (I bought zelda, tony hawk, and monkey ball btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potter_Pkr Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I want one so badly now. I'll have to wait until Christmas. Hopefully it isnt sold out in England...and hopefully my parents will buy me one. Zelda looks amazing. Also, is it possible to go on the internet on the Wii and browse sites? Because maybe RS could work? Retired 8th October 2007 | 99 Fishing | 99 Cooking | Owner of a Red Mask and 2 Santa Hats | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wii can surf the web, but the Wii lacks Java needed to run RuneScape. Hopefully someone could try. Maybe trying to download Java onto an SD card first or onto the Wii. I heard flash will work on the Wii but not sure.

supermonk Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 I want a Wii solely for the new Zelda game. If there's still some left tomorrow, I think I'll get it. If there's none left and the next shipment is coming in after December 13th, I'll just get the Zelda game for Gamecube. Supermonk, proving you wrong since 1992.
