Best Buy Stocking Up On Wii Fit
If you didn't pre-order Wii Fit or at least go looking for it on its first day of release, you may have found yourself out of luck these last few weeks. In fact, there was even speculation that the North American Wii Fit shortage was intentional, due to our crumbling dollar. However, it looks like Nintendo might be willing to throw us a bone, as Best Buy is advertising that they will have copies of the game and peripheral in store starting today.
At least 10 copies per store are promised, so assuming there weren't long lines this morning, you might still be able to find one at a store near you. It's also possible that other stores will follow suit in the big push for Dads and Grads, although of the major retailers, so far Best Buy is the only one advertising stock of the game.

My local Best Buy in Fargo, ND had around 53 copies of Wii Fit in stock this morning.
My boyfriend and I got in line at about 11:30 a.m. (the store opens at noon) and were easily able to obtain one of the 'golden tickets' that would ensure us our purchase of Wii Fit.
I believe that they still had a few tickets available as the doors opened at 12p.m., however they were announcing via the PA system that they were sold out of Wii Fit before we even got to the register to pay for our 'guaranteed' copy.
No indication was given regarding future re-stocking plans this week.
I've set it up...and my first impressions have been tainted by the horrifying sadness you feel when Wii Fit tells you you're a horrible slob who needs better posture. :)
