Playstation 5 / Xbox Series X and S, or just man up and get a PC

in addition to what emain said, something I noticed with the nintendo minis is that things tend to update as in stock at midnight Pacific Time, 3:00 Eastern. Once I noticed this, I would wake up at 2:55, try to snag one, and go back to bed at 3:01.

You can probably figure out a day pattern as well. If you set up alerts, you can see if such a time/day pattern seems to exist for restocking these.

 

If they did, they don't get to see the fist fights.

 

Good call there. My gut tells me there will be some hitting right before Black Friday. I've got a couple students helping as well that understand the whole GameStop scene better than I do.

 

With GameStop, it's more about waiting for the right trade in deals. They paid me to get my Xbox One X after I traded them my old Xbox One (that I wasn't using) and my year old Xbox One S.

I had my first temptation for the new systems yesterday when I saw they'd give me $175 for my Xbox One X. At some point, they're going to issue a bigger offer for trading an Xbox One X towards the purchase of a new system, and it may be enough for me to pounce.

 

That's how I got mine on release day. Got on Target at 3:00 AM, had one ordered by 3:15 from one of my local stores.

 

Is the PS5 as ugly as it looks in pictures?

 

It's not bad, just really big.

I've got mine standing vertical on the TV stand beside the TV and it hasn't caused my wife to tell me to move it, so it can't be too ugly.

 

"It's our new high speed modem. It has to be out in the open so it can push the best signal through the house."

 

They will be available on Walmart.com at 3 PM tomorrow, though you've probably got a snowball's chance in hell of landing one.

 

Make sure you are signed in with payment information saved if you go that route. Or really any online retailer

 

I've got it set up on walmart just waiting.

Also, if any of you cucks stumble on one, I can venmo or whatever else to you. My son literally never asks for anything for christmas, have to damn make him tell me what he wants. My daughter on the other hand has had her list started since Dec. 26th last year.

 

Anybody looking for a Switch for Christmas? Got one last year. Played 5 times. Couple games included...

 

God. Dammit.

site went bananas as I was checking out.
[uck fay].

 

Give them a cardboard cutout of one that says "When Daddy can [uck fay]ing Get One Off of the [uck fay]ing Internet" on the back.

 

a box full of IOUs for the console and some games. "it's as good as cash!"

 

Zlatan Ibrahimovich bought one for every teammate who wanted one, so there they all are

 

Probably on the after market.

I tried getting an Xbox today at 3pm. Was able to at least get to the place order stage whereas last time I couldn’t get past the cart. I was lucky enough to snag a ps5 digital on release day on Amazon.

 

Which games and how much?

 

Leisure Suit Larry 1-3 and Leisure Suit Larry: Viva Las Vegas

 

@NYYVol I was talking to the wife who also has experience snagging these sort of limited supply high demand xmas items. she was saying that sometimes you can find less popular retailers online where you are only competing against thousands instead of millions. I think this advice is a bit dated because even 5 years ago there were more medium or small sized online retailers, but I pass it on as a potential strategy to do in addition to walmart.

come to think of it, even just looking to do the walmart strategy with target or some other not as huge retailer may increase your odds
