Newegg is now sold out too..... Is this going to be the first hardcore 3rd party mega-success for Wii?

Well the Guitar Hero games have already accomplished that along with Mario vs Sonic! But I hope this is a great sign, I know HVS would have huge smiles on their faces for being one of the first to really gamble on Wii and come away with a major hit, not only would it mean they get a good return on their investment but it would help establish them as a big 3rd Party contender with a brand name that people will recognize on Wii.

I was planning on just walking into GameStop tomorrow evening and buying this, I'm beginning to think that may not be possible.

I will be very sad if I can find this no where also.... I knew I should have preordered! I just forgot how soon it was coming out until this weekend!

The funny part is that the reason I was planning on getting it at GameStop was so I could preorder Wii Sports Resort because I figured it would be hard to find.

Well I think Nintendo will have enough Resorts around since by the time it comes out it will have been final for months! But it is bundled with plastic so who knows.... It will sell 1000 Million day one since it is a bundle. Which is good so M+ gets out.

I am really really really hoping my Gamestop has extra copies by the time I get there! My mom said I can't leave the house until I mow the grass and do the whole yard. So i'll wake up around 8-9 and be done by 11. Then Gamestop will only have been opened an hour.

The last game I was this excited/mad about "ship dates" was Galaxy...

SIXTH STORE IS THE CHARM. Picked it up at the second Wal-Mart I tried. I'll be posting my code soon. Anyone else have it?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #1533 on:** June 23, 2009, 11:20:12 PM »

Sadly I don't have it yet.I will try and get it in the morning.Also ShyGuy please sign up for the Wi-Fi day tomorrow.I requested we do that because you weren't going to be able to play because of your vacation.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #1534 on:** June 23, 2009, 11:22:30 PM »

Oh don't worry, I will be playing tomorrow after 6:30pm PSDT.

This guy got the game and posted some about online. This is going to be a time suck for me!

There are two videos.

Okay, So I've played a half hour of online. Feels good, somewhere between Golden Eye and Halo. My only complaint is the walk speed seems pretty slow, but I think that is adjustable.

Played against a High Voltage guy, HVS-SGT and some guy who is really good called Batista.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #1539 on:** June 24, 2009, 12:10:10 AM »

Are there lots of people online?

And can you map the grenade throw to a button?

kraken613 · « **Reply #1540 on:** June 24, 2009, 12:15:50 AM »

I am really getting excited! 11am tomorrow can not get here sooner!

We have the Wii's Halo right here I think. I can't wait to play with all you guys!

Djunknown · « **Reply #1541 on:** June 24, 2009, 12:22:58 AM »

Got it on Amazon with free shipping, though I won't get it until next week

But hey, I saved %10, so silently, patiently, I wait.

Good to know that's it not overhyped, nor is it getting crapped on by everybody. I predict NWR will have a clan in future...

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #1542 on:** June 24, 2009, 12:32:24 AM »

Well I have my day tomorrow mapped out.

Walmart will be open at 6 am PST.So that will be my first spot. Target opens at 8 am.So I will hit the two targets then head over to Best Buy which opens at 10:00 then hit the 2 gamestops on my way home.

Gonna wake up at 4 am. I have to take the bus. Don't know if I am going to go to sleep now or just stay up till 4 am.Then head out.

kraken613 · « **Reply #1543 on:** June 24, 2009, 12:33:06 AM »

Wow, I really think this game isn't going to bomb. Its gotten to #9 on the top 25 at Amazon!

That sounds realistic, probably a steady combat run. Regular FPS running speed is too fast for precise line-of-sight aiming, cuz they suck.

When I went to Target, they had a spot in case marked Conduit but the game hadn't came in yet. The clerk told me it was scheduled to come in Wednesday morning via Fed Ex.

I had no problem finding a full game

Actually, it seems for the motion controls you can only swap them between themselves. Which surprised me, because I could have sworn that in one of the video demo/interviews they mentioned swapping the motion controls as well. Perhaps they took it out?

Did the clerk say what time the shipment was coming in?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #1548 on:** June 24, 2009, 02:23:39 AM »

He didn't, but the earliest I have ever seen Fed Ex deliver is 8:30am. 10:30am is more typical. No 24 hour WalMart in your area?

Halo 3 is better? I really question that because Halo 3 is also a damn generic FPS except with shitty controls.
