Watch the morning stampede to try the Nintendo Wii!

[DealBot]

What a great video from Kotaku. See a huge crowd instantly swarm the Nintendo booth while sad Sony employees watch from a distance.

I wonder if that's what stores are going to look like on Wii launch day.

If so, I'll be stampeding along with them.

Count me in. I'm sure the only places where PS3's will sell out is places where $600 can actually be afforded (Manhattan, Beverly Hills!)

Don't forget, that's $600 for the system plus you have to have an HDTV to really use it and broadband and a home network to really get full use out id the PS3. I wonder how many people have all those things? Whereas Sony is targeting a smaller and smaller audience, Nintendo has stated outright that they are trying to get more people into gaming. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next 5 years.

I could see a situation where Nintendo wins short term and Sony *eventually* gets a decent share long term, but that's not gonna be easy to do.

Oh yeah, I just found out that some co-workers of mine at my old game store (Game Junkie) were in that line and could be found in the video!
