I got a Wii
MustardTent:
Got mine this morning too at Toys R Us. Also ran out of Zelda before I got to it, but no biggie. I got there at 7:30, doors opened at 9, and I was about the 20th person in line.
The line experience was actually pretty fun. Got to talk to some nice people.

Picked mine up last night at GameStop w/ Zelda, an extra controller and some other BS. Went out this morning to check things out and maybe pick up a second for a friend. If you weren't in line early this morning, you weren,t getting one. For the most part, it doesn't look like there will be any walking into a store this afternoon and grabbing a Wii off the pile. This sucker is sold out.
Spaz Monkey:
Got in line at local target at 6:30ish am. was 53/60.

Wife and I were out this morning running errands and made the rounds just to check things out. When we went by Target at about 8:30 there were about 8-9 people in line to get one, kid working there wasn't sure if the had any systems left beyond those for folks who were in the line, but thought they did. I didn't bother asking anyone else to find out since we weren't picking one up anyway... People were walking up occasionally and getting into the line, so I hope they had systems. The Toys R Us down the way had about 20 people in line ~15 minutes before opening, so they should have had an abundance of systems left by my understanding (60-80 per TRU). Wife's sister and her boyfriend waited in line at Best Buy for one. They seem to have been the only place sold out at that point.
Looks like if we'd been in the market for a system we could have had at least one, probably two, with no more than a 20 minute wait... As it stands we're waiting until after Christmas - told family we wanted Best Buy gift cards, then we'll pick one up when they're available again.

You guys are going to hate me...I got to circuit city at about 8:30, got the console at about 10:00. I got the LAST ONE!
Also got a wiimote, red steel, and LoZ:TP. Was going to get a nunchuck, but they ran out.
