Thinking about grabbing one, was in my local game yesterday and they were told to stop taking preorders for them a day or 2 before hand. Reckon it'll be hard to snag one come december? :confused:
 
I doubt you will be able to get hold of one this side of Christmas now, afaik pre orders have been pretty hot.
 
Hmm i think i'll be able to grab one from somewhere, theres about 3 game stores locally to me, hmv etc. :)

Far as i kow game might be doing a midnight opening on the 7th to sell them as well.
 
I hope not... I'd want one but I'm not 100% and won't be able to afford one till they're out (if I can at all..).

Was expecting mass availability. :(
 
I have a saturday job at a competitor. So far we have a grand total of four pre-orders. I'm really not sure what to do - if wii get in even one more than enough to fill all the pre-orders I don't have to worry about pre-ordering, but if we don't I'll be gutted. I've, as a rule, never bought a console on day 1 before though, so am still only 70%ish certain that I'm going to want to buy it (oh I want it but you know)....

lmao, all the geeks are gunna have to go back to their snes' for a while yet.


:confused: :eek:
 
I want to have one in my hands before I do anything and for that reason I don't have a pre-order. The fact that I am 90% sure that there will be enough units for almost everyone on release day also influences my decision.

Thats what im hoping as well, im gonna take a trot down to the midnight launch game are meant to be having, gonna be mildly miffed if every single system they have is reserved for a preorder. :mad:
 
Didn't realise Game were having more midnight launch parties!!

Might nip down to one to join in the atmosphere.
 
I have mine on pre-order at my local Gamestation. They rang me up and asked me if I wanted to jump ship from the PS3 order.
Put me at number 2 on the list so as long as they get more than one console I think I am ok :)
 
I wasn't going to bother pre-ordering til I read on a few forums about them possibly running short on supply and that some stores were going to stop taking pre-orders.

I'm sure it's all just internet rumours and hype, but I ended up ordering one from Game. I'm pre-order number 41 from my local store so hopefully I should be able to get one, though with my luck they will only get 40 delivered :(
 
well i got mine pre-ordered anyways only £20 deposited from my local gamestation number 13 in the cue they better get more then 13 units dam them...:p

I think they only got about 8 360's on day one:eek: so I'm abit scared whether they will get a good amount.
