Wii Pre-order Tomorrow At GameStop
October 12th, 2006 by Matt Stone in Business
Following the PS3 pre-order frenzy that took place a few days ago at GameStop stores across the US; the retailer has confirmed that the Wii will be available for pre-order tomorrow (Friday). The pre-order will take place in GameStop and EB games stores, where gamers will have to pay from $25 to $50 to reserve one of the 50 consoles that are allocated per store. In comparison, GameStop only had 16 PlayStation 3 consoles per store a few days ago.
Last month Amazon had pre-orders on the Wii which were sold out within hours, it’s likely that the same thing will happen tomorrow at GameStop and EB Games stores.

I hate Gamestop…the associate told me, reserve 3 games and he would call me for being “loyal,”and since i have work and can’t wait at 10a.m.,he would be able to set aside a reserve ticket for me…that i could pay for during lunch…ok swell…until today i go there and the guy acts like he has no idea who I am! i cancelled all game reserves, i hope they lose the credit for them…he got me to reserve under dubious pretenses…then the manager acts like i didn’t understand the reservations…i told her i understood, i was lied too. she didnt want to get into it.
