Pre-order/Camp out FAQ:
Toys R Us: Began taking pre-orders on the 29th of October, but they aren't available now. They should have more stock than just their preorders though.
Gamecrazy: Began taking pre-orders the 20th of October. Don't camp.
Gamestop/EB: Began taking pre-orders sometime in mid-October. Don't camp.
Wal-Mart: Midnight on the 19th. Probably will receive a hefty amount of consoles, so plan to come early.
Best Buy: Usually open at 10 am, may open earlier to commemorate the Wii launch - call to check. A good camp out option.
Target: Will open at 8 am in celebration of the Wii launch - look below for specifics. Check to see how many Wiis your Target will receive. While this looks accurate and realistic I want to remind everyone that it is not officially confirmed that these numbers are correct so trust this site at your own risk.
Sam's Club/Costco/etc.: Lots of people had success with these types of stores at the 360 launch, so it's probably a good idea to check them out if you can. They're good because they require a membership so not everybody can go there, and most people wouldn't think of them as having systems.
