Pre Ordering shouldn't be allowed, let everyone queue up instead of letting the lazy bastards jumping the queue because they've pre ordered.

I’m guessing you didn’t bother to pre-order. Don’t be bitter because some people took the care to insure themselves a console on launch. Three months ago you had two choices: make the effort to put in a pre-order and beat the lines and stock shortages, or just wait around and take your chances on launch day. You obviously chose the latter. Good luck!

Everyone deserves a wii!

Oh wait? 14 hours and 56 minutes before I have a Wii in my hands. That’s not too bad. Now I just have to get through work tomorrow and home as quick as I can to play it.

In the afternoon newspaper today it said the first people to start camping outside HMV in London for the midnight launch arived there at 5pm on Tuesday. Wow, so they've been there two days already!

Me not getting one until someone cracks the region lock at least. Don't want to be limited to UK games only and importing a Japanese machine will cost a fortune in customs!

The first person in the queues a student, hes buying it so he can sell it for double on ebay. HMV are meant to have 200 wiis ready for the people that never pre-ordered. Nintendos usually manage to supply everyone that wants consoles with one. Hopefully eveyone that wants one will have one for xmas.

I went to the opening launch at Gamestation in Edinburgh, Was okay

Just headed down from my work at about 11, Since I pre-ordered I got my sale in Early and picked it up, There was a DJ and some food+drink (Softdrinks in plastic cups and some pick&mix, nothing too fancy)

But it was all good, Worth heading for to get the machine early and the component cables

So I picked mine up at 7am this morning. There was a line even for the people with pre-orders. I'm looking forward to getting home this evening and opening the box. I'm saving Zelda for Christmas day though to make it special.
