Ahoy, Spanish Kotaku readers. Seems that many retailers are totally snubbing the December 9th Wii street date and are already selling the console. Writes Kotakuite MrNice:

Just in case you didn't know, this is very Spanish, and it happened as well with the Xbox 360 launch and the Gears of War launch. In the case of the Wii, it might have been launched earlier because there are holidays in Spain from today to the weekend, so maybe the retailers decided to get rid of the consoles before people went on holidays.

Spanish retailers are so punk. Brian Ashcraft
