Let's just hope it isn't like when the Wii came out and you had issues getting one even 6 months after the release..
I ended up getting on relatively early because I got one of those Gamestop bundles that gave you like 6 games extra. They'd release them every once in a while.It took me a couple months before I could find a Wii. I would call different stores in the area almost every day.
