This is true! I saw it on Friday morning and I called TRU at about 12:30 and said I saw it on your site. They told me there were 10 and only 3 were taken so far. I rushed down (25 min trip) and I was #10!
"14. So, I walk into Toys R Us on FRIDAY and gave the manager crap for not selling me one when the night before, TRU's site said they would take orders in store the following day. Turns out it was a mistake but, regardless, was construed (by me.. haha) as false advertisement.
Out of the 10 Wii's they have allocated, I managed to get my Wii preorder Friday without any wait of any kind. Gotta love it. Now I have one preordered at EB and TRU. I dare say I have this Wii thing covered for launch day. By the way, 20 days, nine hours and 18 min left!!!
