Put my deposit down at GameStop on the way home from class. Wii, Zelda and an extra Wiimote, which works out to a lot more than $250 once you add it all up Confused Still worth it.

Twilight Princess has been delayed so many times I'll believe it when the disc is actually in the tray.

Quick reminder since this thread is busy again: launch-line plans, camping meetups and "is it in stock at your Target" posts go in here, not in new threads. I've merged four of them today.

For what it's worth I'm skipping launch. Red Steel looks like a tech demo and I'd rather wait for a few more games.

Don't forget a Nunchuk for the second Wiimote if you want two players in anything besides Wii Sports.

Virtual Console is what sold me though. 800 points for Super Metroid? Done. Very Happy

I'll be the grumpy one then. Every launch preview I've read says the controls are "interesting", which is reviewer for "not finished". I'll pick one up in the spring when there's more than one game I actually want Rolling Eyes

Talked to the manager at the GameStop by me and he reckons they're getting about 40 units for launch day, and most of those are already spoken for. If you haven't put a deposit down somewhere yet, do it this week.
