The seeming interactivity looks cool and something I could just pick up and casually play for a break. Any thoughts?
Also, any idea why I can't find one?
Sure I can tell you why................. business marketing tactics - not that it makes you feel any better
The best thing to do is find as many resources (Stores) as you can - I would say stay local to your area; my wife purchased ours (Christmas present for the family) from a local GameStop store that had one delivered to the store while she was about to leave and she went back in and bought it.
We still have it hidden waiting for the magic day.......... I guess we're all hoping it will be a great experience and we have invested in several games and controllers as well. I have plans to connect to the Internet via my wireless network and have been researching issues on this as well. I bought a USB LAN adapter today in case I can't get the wireless to work; I've HEARD that the Wii only support WEP security and NOT WPA or WPA2, so that will kinda suck, as I have WPA-AES. I may need to run some Cat5 downstairs.........
EDIT: Forgot to mention I CANNOT find the Wii Fit BOARD at all; I can get the 5in1 or 6in1 accessory pack FOR the Wii Fit, but the board is non-existant, unless you want to pay double/triple the retail price.........
