Wal-Mart.com to Offer Thousands of Wiis for Sale, Starting Monday

Still can't find a Nintendo Wii? It is still the hottest-selling video game console after two years, and still hard to find, at least at the standard retail price. Your last chance for the holiday season might be Wal-Mart.com, as the world's largest retailer has been stocking up, and will offer tens of thousands of the console on its website starting Monday.

I'll tell you something. The Wii is not hard to find because it is selling out. It is hard to find because retailers and Nintendo are purposefully creating a shortage... again.

Take EB, for instance. They had a flyer that started this last Friday, which included a special price and such. ALL EB stores had Wiis in stock for almost a week, but were told not to sell them until this past Friday.
