According to several tipsters, Best Buy has a policy to hold onto Wii when they hit the story so they can amass enough to advertise their existence in their weekly circular. They need to do this to meet the minimum in stock requirement.
Several Best Buy employees and friends of employees have emailed to tell us that the second Wii shipment has arrived, but you'll have to wait till Black Friday or this weekend for you chance at them.
What this particular tipster didn't get into was the store's policy on Playstation 3s which, again according to several tipsters, are in such short supply they will not be advertised. Instead the store is just going to plop them on the shelves as they arrive. So I'd get that dialing finger ready if you're interested in a PS3. If it's the Wii you're after, prepare for more line standing.
I'm not sure which method I prefer.
