The best place to find a Nintendo Wii is definitely not at the stores right now. You have to fight all of the other people going to the stores and there are not any Wii's to buy there anyway.

So how are you supposed to find this game that for some reason your kids absolutely cannot live without when you can't even go to the store and get it. There are a couple of options that I have found but they are both going to cost more than the original retail price.

One of them is to look at your local classifieds paper like American Classifieds or whatever you have in your area. There will most likely be someone in there that bought one at the store and is now selling it for a nice profit.

The other way, which I think is easier, is to check out the auction sites. Once again you are going to pay more than the retail value but it is pretty much the only chance you have of getting one before Christmas.

My favorite auction site for the Nintendo Wii is SystemsInStock.com. It is an auction site that has nothing but the Nintendo Wii consoles, games, and accessories. Makes it very easy to find what you are looking for since you don't have to weed through a hundred other things first.

Good luck in your attempts to find that elusive Nintendo Wii, hopefully you will be successful before Christmas gets here.
