Want to buy a WII, but WHERE?

I am in Thun, BERN, I was looking for the WII before new year and got dissapointed as the guys in Interdiscount told me that they had not seen it for a longggg time in the region.
Anyone have an idea where I could get one just after the new year?
Though I am living in the german part, if i could get one in French like in Fribourg is still fine for me.

If you get it in the French part, don't forget to ask for a OUII.

Anyway, there were reports of quite a few left in Media Markts in the ZH area around launch time and MM always seem to get in the most stock of any of the electronics chains so your nearest MM store is a good bet.

As of yesterday, Interdiscount XXL (Egerkingen) had a few on their shelves.

Egerkingen is about 35 KM south of Basel. Near Olten.

Wii's never been any other price here.
You can switch the console to English and many games will be in English. Search the site for "english games" or "english software" and you should find it.

check the date of original posting. There are almost no console shortages here.

Dunno. Never checked that, as I'm not really in the market for one. I assume list price.
