Default where to get wii / wii controllers?

I just checked ebay, and they're still going for like 175-200% retail, and I remember seeing the controllers just sitting there at Walmart last time I was there.

So I'm planning on hitting up a bunch of stores this morning and just seeing if I can score some stuff. Any ideas where/when to get consoles and/or controllers?

Just bought 2 controllers (2 controlers + 2 nunchuk's) at Gamestop tonight. They will be on ebay shortly.

Also, all the stores by me are getting a new shipment of wii's in on Sunday morning. I am praying to god that I get one as I have been dieing for one. I already have 1 extra controller and zelda ready to go. All the other extra controllers I get in the mean time are going on ebay for almost doulbe what I buy them for.

Shoe,

Where are you? I am in Hermosa Beach Cali and I hear the targets hear will get some on Sunday too. If you are close we should go Wii hunting together as I really want to snag one as soon as possible too!

I'm up in the bay area.

as far as the normal remote, they aren't worth flipping at this point, tiny ROI. As for the systems, I don't know where to get them still, but if I was around you I'd be down to mini-camp it for one [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] (aka less than the 2-3 days ppl were for the initial release)

you talking nunchuks or standard controllers? I've checked ebay and they are going for about $45, which just isn't worth the time. (i'm getting them for $40 retail, you guys too right?)
