I had two, both pre-ordered for which I camped out for. One sold on ebay :-) Oh and I got ahold of another one and gave it away on here a few months ago.

Well I sat outside my local Wal-Mart (this was before the new GameStop was built) for 13 hours in the freezing cold. It was great, I was 13th in line. Some people were playing cart races and other stuff, while me and 7 other people player 8-player Tetris. Some guy also bought us all a pizza, and then we just wrote the names and places of everyone on the pizza box and gave it to the clerks who would be ringing us up.

Walmart pwns. I camped outside of Walmart for 18 hours me and my friend were the first ones there. Another friend brought a Xbox 360 and a large TV. We unplugged the merry-go-round and bought power strips to play everything which we later returned. We also bought tents and pillows which we later returned. We had loads of people playing music and made prank calls to the Walmart we were outside of asking them about getting the Wii on layaway. Finally, at 11:50 some assholes showed up and tried to get in line. So we all said they hit one of us and we were gonna call the cops and they left.

That sucks you people don't have a 24hr walmart, I was too late to go there since you could wait in the lay away area, so I had to wait outside Target 12 hours. I was the 2nd in line. I just sat there and played my DS all alone  :-(

My Wal-Mart is a 24 Hour Wal-Mart... We had to sit outside for 7 hours (until the manager realized that we weren't going to kill someone for one) and then the rest was just waiting inside thawing out in layaway.

well...i got mine on launch day, but it was pretty sketchy how i got it: i woke up at like 6 am to go to the nearest best buy, we get there 15 minutes prior to opening, and the lady that worked there told us to go back cause they already gave out the vouchers. after that, we went to Future Shop, where there was already a huge line.we waited there for quite a while. we met this girl, who was pretty cool, and she and her boyfriend were trying to get one. so, we chatted with her for a while, then she said that her boyfriend was at a Rogers Video (i think vancouver-only based rental shop like blockbuster) trying to get one of the few (5) systems they had. so, once future shop opened, they gave the vouchers, and me and my bro didnt get one. so, we ran like crazy to Rogers, and to our dismay, we were 5th in line, but some guy bought 2. however, my mom was at another rogers that only had 3 systems, and she was the 2nd..or so she thought, because apparently someone pre-ordered one, so she was the third in line. and that's how i got my wii!

I waited outside to preorder one for all of like, 3 hours I think.  Then I picked it up at midnight.

Oh Meridian, you didn't camp out for your gamestop preorder.  You were there after me, which means you stood outside for less than 2 hours.
