Wii

People keep telling me how much fun a "Wii" is even for nongamers. So, today I decided I'd go and buy one. The same Wii evangelists also told me that Wii shortages are now history, that I should be able to walk into Fry's and get one, no problem. So, I walked into Fry's, Toys-R-Us, Target and Circuit City, looking for a Wii. I also went to big-name online stores to find one. No luck, Wii's are still in high demand. At Toys-R-Us they expect a shipment of 40 Wiis any day now, but the sales person said you have to be there when they unload to get one. "They will all sell out within an hour," he said. So, no game console for Joris anytime soon.
