Major retailers are already reporting that they have completely sold out of their preorders for the Wii U. Yes, the console's release date was only announced last week, but we're apparently going to relive the Wii shortage of 2006. It does help boost the hype, doesn't it?
The following retailers claim to be sold out:
- GameStop – Only Basic package is available.
- Best Buy – Only Basic package is available.
- Toys R Us
- Target
- Sears
- K-Mart
As of this article, Wal-mart has both packages available, so if you're dying to preorder the unit, you can still rely on Sam Walton for now.
