Wii Preorders

Posted by ccrocker58

[URL="http://http://www.toysrus.ca/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&catalogId=10054&langId=-1&productId=87085"]The Canadian website for Toys-R-Us[/URL] is accepting preorders for the Wii as we speak, my only question is if I buy my Wii from CA will it work here in the US? As far as I know they use the same versions of systems as we do, but I just wanted to be sure...

Looking at their site would inform you that they won't ship outside Canada. So, unless you want to drive up there, probably not such a great plan.

And, interestingly, look at the PS3 preorder-thing. I didn't think they were going with the boomarang, so I'll assume Toys'r'us sucks.

As far as I know many game stores are already taking pre-orders for the Wii. The local GameCrazy by me has been taking pre-orders for a couple months now.

I don't think I'll have to pre-order. Their going to have plenty of units out at launch. I'll just go wait at Wal-Mart the night before.

Well...it said they aren't currently, so I figured they might eventually ship out here, but either way, Axis might have a point...but I think I'm gonna just wait to find a pre-order locally...I don't know of any in NJ that have shown up yet. I know Gamestop and EB aren't taking any yet, NJ doesn't have gamecrazy, and I really don't trust movie stores as they screwed me over with my GCN when I preordered through them. I just like the satisfaction of knowing that I have a system guarenteed and waiting for me on launch day.

Uhm dude, preorders have been going on for a while... well at least at my local gaming stores...

Hmm, I haven't really put much thought into it. But I should pre-order one sometime soon. Probably at my local game store. And if I can't there I can go the three other games store or a retail if I have to.

It's all good bby.

You do know I quit my job at EB like... a month ago right? Though, if it means you'll actually play some Smash with me, then I'll gladly ship you one. If only to see you get overly-competitive and then supa angry :cool:
