You're lucky it was so nice and warm! I was out in sub-zero temperatures in upstate NY from 4am to 9. Thankfully I didn't get sick, but I did get fed up with the Wii game selection pretty quickly and bought an XBox 360 on Ebay.

I waited outside Toys 'R' Us for an hour, the day after my birthday... to get a Nintendo Wii. (As well as Pokémon Pearl) Early in the morning... it freaking sucked. xD But I had it lucky, since it was April and the weather wasn't freezing. And only an hour. I don't have the patience to wait for any longer, I'd just wait until it becomes more available then buy it then.

The Wii was pretty good.
