I ordered my Wii U from Walmart.com - They sent my system out on Friday night in Chicago. It processed out of chicago on Saturday morning, and since then, has done nothing. I live 6 hours from Chicago, hell I coulda drove there myself and picked it up lol. Realizing full well that Sunday they don't work, I would have thought that sometime from Saturday morning up until Monday afternoon they would have shown it being somewhere. I got games just sitting here waiting to be played... arggg.

Rant over....

I don't honestly remember what I chose for shipping. Hoping for delivery yet today as I took Monday- Wednesday off of work to just chill out and play Nintendo. Oh well, I sit and wait even longer with nothing else to do (well, there's plenty I could do, but chose not to)

You can always call and speak to someone as well. A few times this has happened to me and I called and was informed the delivery was much further ahead than the online tracking led me to believe. I never trust the online tracker.

I have heard a lot of Fedex stories. Usually it's better to stick with regular mail shipping, UPS, or DHL.

Ugh, I'm having the same problem. Haven't had any updates since Saturday on neither my game nor my console.

I don't know what to do, tbh. I'm just sitting here biting my nails and staring at the games and accessories I've already bought.

Doesn't matter if you live right next door to the FedEx/other parcel company warehouse/centre, it still has to go through all the different processes before it gets to your house. Sorry to hear you haven't got yours though.
If it doesn't come tomorrow, ring them up and ask them where it is.

I have sold my Wii U, so if I deleted you from NN before I sold it, or haven't accepted your friend request since, this is why.

At 3;41 this afternoon the website updated saying it arrived in St. Paul, which is 2 hours north of me. If i'm right, it would next have to go to a smaller town, Mason City, which is half an hour south of me, and hopefully be here tomorrow. I realize that their online updates are 100 percent accurate, but it would just be nice to know if I need to be up early or sleep in most of the day tomorrow....

FedEx was the company that delivered my current phone, HTC One X. I had no problems with them; in fact, I was quite amazed by their speed.

Your lucky you dont live in Alaska!!!! When I was stationed in Ketchikan, AK I had to order to to get most of everything I wanted. FEDEX, UPS or USPS dont fly into a lot of the places in ALaska...they contract Alaska AIr or like ERA...and in places like Ketchikan, Kodiak there areonly like two flights a day..not a lot of room for weather delays!!!

Okay, it's finally updated. Apparently it was shipped from Florida lmao.

Turns out I'm also getting it a day earlier than expected according to them. Yay.

That's why I very much prefer going to the store and picking it up myself.

just updated again about fifteen minutes ago, it has left St. Paul. Assuming its on its way, and i'll get it tomorrow. The sad thing is,the truck will drive past my house - i live a half block from the highway, and in literally an hour and change, it'll go right past... argg

Just cuz no one cares in my real world life, I'll keep on here with my excitement. Fed Ex updated about 3 hours ago, it's at my local facility, then ten minutes later, on the truck for delivery. The local facility is half an hour away, so now I sit anxiously waiting... any minute now...

Lucky! Mine doesn't arrive until the 23rd. Hoping it arrives earlier, although it doesn't seem like that will be possible.

It all worked out in the end. It is funny that you and I were talking on the Walmart.Com thread worried sick about our pre orders, and now here we are with our Wii U's on the truck for delivery this morning.

I had to run to work to grab a wii remote with motion plus, only two blocks away, was scared I'd miss the fed ex guy and maybe they wouldn't just leave it outside... Grabbed the remote, rounded the corner back to my place, and saw the big ole truck parked in front of my building, then got bummed out when I saw it was a Schwans truck. no, I don't want fine frozen food, I want Nintendo Wii U!
