Yeah I know what you mean, until I get that thing in my hands I am gonna still be freaking out

Importmadness really susprised me, after screwing up my order in 2004 im surprised to see they're still going AND getting Wiis.

I'm order number... 0000068125

I have been confirmed a unit and anyone before me should do too

Awesome. I'm 67672 so it's looking rosy for me.

As for Import Madness, I'm really glad I went with them now. They were flawless on the DS and PSP US launches for me so here's hoping it's 3 out of 3.

Not sure what time 12pm eastern is, though. Somewhere around 5/7pm tomorrow?

Yep, can't believe the change in mood since the 31st October when DVD Box Office sent out their 'Wii Delay' email and VG+ apparently let so many people down last week.

The Import Madness guys should have their US Wii's by Monday/Tuesday 27th/28th and VG+ will probably come up with the goods too.

My personal concern is now with the games/accessories i've ordered. I ordered Zelda, Excite Truck and an extra Wiimote through DVD Box Office, but think they'll struggle to get enough stock in to sort me out. Any words of comfort/suggestions?

Thank feck that I took the plunge and ordered the Wii itself through Import Madness as back up. That's looking like a gamble that's going to pay off (I already had one ordered with DVDBO).

Happy Days

i am a litlle annoyed about vg+. first we pre-order, then we get told unfortunately were not getting any so you can try to get one but be ripped off elswhere then they say hang on actually we are getting some after all. i know people will now say you should have stuck with them but i wanted one as soon after launch as possible and with last weeks email of doom i panicked and ebayed one(dont ask how much). anyone else feel the same??
