the WII will rule them all at the biggining

I don't think it will rule all initially, based on the number of 360s already being used. I think it will be a year or more till we see a clear market leader and there is no way anyone of us can know for a long time which will be at the head of the race. Lets hope that the Wii is significantly more successful than the GC and we get an extensive library of good games.

Am I making 5 from 2+2 here?

You appear to have posted this message as if you had just stumbled across this site (as a customer) and are being extremely helpful by letting us all know where we can get our Wii's in time for launch?

However, when I look at your other posts every single one of them contains a link to this company!
