Wii preorders

Anybody going to preorder a Wii? Gamestop said they should be taking preorders by the end of the week. I'm gonna get there right when they open to slap my money down on the counter and get a place in line. Only a month left until it releases. I'm debating whether I should just buy one with some games/accessories and sell it on eBay around Xmas time, then take the profits and buy another one for myself after the Xmas rush is over.

I am gonna hold off on the Wii for a while, as my wife and I bought two DS Lites on their US release. We play those things all night up on the deck, and they've become the new wster of our time. I want to keep rocking for those for a while before I start spending money on a new console and new games.

I think it's just $50 deposit. And some Gamestops and EBs are accepting trade-ins for the deposit.

There's gonna be a ton of kickass games out for it. I was going to buy Spore for the PC, the new Maxis game coming out next year, but it also comes out on Wii so I'll just get it for that. And I think the controllers are going to kick ass.

Gamestops are doing preorders tomorrow morning. I'm gonna try and hit up at least one, probably two before work. Probably sell one on ebay as package deal around Xmas time.

All sources I can find say it comes out Q1 2007. My guess would be sometime late February or early March.

Just to tell all the canadians up here in the rocky north, the pre-order's for the Wii and the PS3 begin monday morning at EB Games.
Yay!
I might pre-order both, I'm not sure. For sure the Wii though
