1. Check the Sunday Target ad on Saturday.
2. If Wii is advertised, go to bed early.
3. On Sunday go to your local Target store at least 30 minutes before it opens. You may want to go as much as a couple hours early.
4. Wait.
5. The store employees have seen this before and know you (and all the other people with you) are waiting for Wiis. They might have everyone line up or they might hand out numbers. Listen well and follow their instructions.
6. Do not forget to buy an extra Wii mote and nunchuk or Wii Play and nunchuk. If you are near the end of the line they may run out. If that happens just order from Amazon.
You might want to check other store ads too. The day I got my Wii from Target I went to Toys R Us and waited to buy more Wii motes (Toys R Us opens later). They had advertised Wiis the same day and also had a line of people. Everyone in line got a Wii. Not every one in line got to buy additional controllers.

Nintendo of America CEO and president said it's impossible to meet demand for Wii this holiday season.
You have better luck buying a Wii, new or used, off of ebay or Craig's List.
I got mine from ebay but paid a hundred bucks extra. Hope it's worth it for Super Mario Galaxy and Smash Bros Brawl. If not, I'm gonna get rid of it to recoup the cost.

Try other stores or buy a used one on a site like craigslist.org
most will come with a few games.
