As the post says, tomorrow is when the Wii hits store shelves in Australia. I called EB Games on Monday, who first told me that as they are the Nintendo-preferred supplier in Australia (whatever that means) there is absolutely no chance they will not be able to meet all their current pre-orders. Then they told me that, despite their earlier promises, they wouldn't be upgrading my pre-order to match the Toys 'R' Us deal, and that it was also now too late for me to take my business to Toys. I think there was demented gloating laughter involved. Screw you, EB.
In any case, does anyone feel like coming into Civic tomorrow morning from about 7 am to help me camp the console spawn? I probably don't need to actually line up, but dagnabbit I missed the 360 launch and I'm sure as heck not lining up for a PS3, so this is my one chance to fanboi over this generation of consoles. I'll bring snackages!
Did I mention how
xkcd is awesome and I have all the shirts?
UPDATE: On the plus side, we're totally not in Japan, and there are unlikely to be
1,500 people in the line.

Enjoy your wii!
I'm very interested in this non-gamer night you proposed, but not sure if I'll be free, on a weekend night, before leaving.
Should be able to plan another day to come hang out with you though.
