I feel your pain man. It's gotten a little worse since I know I'm getting it but I can't have it right now. It'll all be over soon and i'll gladly add you on NN if you want ^-^

So of course like everyone else I got super pumped after seeing the live press conference they had in NY a couple months back revealing the price and release date of the Wii U. I got even more pumped when they announced a couple games I had no idea were coming to the system. I knew pre-orerders were live as soon as the price and release date for the systems were revealed but I still unfortunately didn't get my pre-order in anywhere. I got used to the fact that might not have the system on launch day like I had planned. Weeks went by and more awesome news came and went about the system and the hype continued. My body was quickly ready for this system that I wouldn't get on day 1.

Fast forward a couple more weeks..

It's the night before the Wii U launches here in the U.S. and frustration I once felt about not having the system day 1 resurfaces. I see gameplay of the games I want to play so badly it hurts and I can't help but pout and sigh all over my house lol. That night I slept surprisingly well and woke up to NSMBU gameplay galore. So to help myself get over this sadness i'm feeling I decided to watch a little gameplay for it. It looks extremely fun to play and only makes things worse. I realize to get rid of all of this sorrow that I must watch some anime and take a nap so I put on some Neon Alley on PS3 and watched Inuyasha. My brother was getting ready for work. He works at Toys R Us so imagine the frustration I felt when even when your brother works for one of the suppliers of the system you want and you still couldn't at least get a pre-order. The day before he brought up the fact that employees can hold items if they please but of course the store he works at only had enough units for the people who pre-ordered it. Tough luck huh? So as i'm dosing off into what I thought was going to be a pleasant nap I get a call. It's my brother. Weird because he never calls me. I pick up and he's in shock. Apparently as he was getting ready for his break after he was done handing everyone's Wii U's to whoever pre-ordered it him and a fellow co-worker were walking through the back where the boxes and products are held. His friend hit a box and stopped as his friend kept walking. He looked inside and there it was. An extra black, deluxe, and heavily packaged Wii U. He didn't say a thing because he knew everyone in the store was looking for one as well. He told me to tell my mother to get in the car and get down there as fast as she could before someone else bought it. She left and got there quickly as possible while I stayed home, waiting...

She finally comes home and it's done. She got the system. While she physically doesn't have the system she put $200 towards it on lay away and I should have it by the end of the week. The reaction at work after a couple employees found out what had happened was a monstrosity. But who the hell cares? I got my system on hold! Now all there's left to do is continue to play the waiting game..
Happy you got one man
The End.

MBParadox wrote:Heh. I don't think that's nearly as bad as my story. On the 15th of October I had pre-ordered the Wii U at Toys R US (Deluxe version) and waited two long months for the systems release. When I had woke up this morning the day it has launched I receive some bad news from my father after getting in the car to go to breakfast. Apparently Toys R Us sent an Email saying that the order has been cancelled due to high demand. After a several hour trip of freaking out we come back home and race to the computer trying every goddamn retailer there is calling multiple different store locations. Nadda. Zilch. After a few depressing hours I try again and find that although target says that multiple of their locations are in stock they are actually sold out. I find one store that says they had a shitload of Deluxe Wii U's and JUST SOLD THE LAST ONE. I lay there pissed off as could be when I look to my left and my father is checking the Email again and realizes he read it wrong. AFTER the order is processed you MIGHT receive an Email clarifying cancellation. Since we called support and it has finished processing I do hope it actually ships tomorrow instead of cancels.
