#133868 Who got a Wii U without pre-ordering?

Posted by Rayven on 19 November 2012 - 04:36 PM

None of the stores around me had them at midnight.  The Walmart I went to said they did, but in the 5 minutes it took me to get there, some pimply faced kid with daddy's credit card had bought (or tried to... his card wasn't going through) all the deluxes.  Despite the card not going through, the lady at the counter refused to let me purchase one.

The next morning, I went to Fry's electronics and stood in a line of about a dozen people who were there about 10:30 am, most of whom were actually pre-orders.  They had no extra deluxes, but they had the white ones.  You could only buy it bundled with the Super Mario and Nintendo Land games so I ended up just getting it.  Not really happy about the whole purchasing process all in all.  I couldn't pre-order anywhere.  Every time I tried, it said it was sold out.
