For those following the same strategy as me this fall — “If I can’t walk into a store and find a Wii, I wasn’t meant to have one.” — there’s some good news. Target’s allocation information was leaked to the Internet the other day, and since then, several Google Maps mashups have sprung up. For instance, this Wii Locator.

There’s some information about the tickets that will be given out at Targets to people waiting in line here. There is a lot of good information in the comments from (I assume) Target employees.
Bizarro and Plutor – What is so enticing to you about the Wii?
If I see one in Costco, should I buy it for you?
I’m especially interested in the pick-it-up-and-play factor. My Gamecube’s been gathering dust lately, primarily because I almost exclusively own games that require a non-trivial investment of your time (Windwaker, Pikmin, etc). I’m looking forward to Wii plus WarioWare and Monkeyball. The only classic questy game I intend to buy is Mario Galaxy. (Every time I say that, people are surprised I’m not interested in Twilight Princess. Well, I’m not, okay?)
I’m super psyched about Smash Bros. Brawl. I really don’t have much time anymore for longer investment games, though Mario Galaxy and Twilight Princess are a must for me.
I think MonkeyBall is the only game you have listeed there that will be available on launch date.. You know since you don’t want Twilight Princess
