So for anyone that collected, were you aware of anyone in the queue chancing their arm with no Preorder?

Guy in front of me asked (Smyths Sligo), was told no chance.

Yep, 3 people today in the queue I was in tried but no luck!

Collected mine, was in line for 20 min with only a handful of ppl. Apparently they were waiting for the stock or something, as it started to move much quicker at some stage.

I couldn't believe it but someone actually didn't bring their ID, it though its impossible considering how much effort were to preorder

There was a teenager in front of me in the queue for Smyths. He turned to me after a few minutes and said (quite friendly like) ‘em...you wouldn’t happen to be reselling, would you?’. After I chuckled and said ‘no, sorry man’ he promptly left the queue and wandered off in a daze.

God speed, young man. God speed.

Astro's Playroom is even better than expected, the most Nintendo type game made outside of Nintendo

Any good deals on regions / sites for credit that you're using? Still need to pull the trigger on demon's souls but it's coming to 65 euro for 70 dollars credit.

I was in Argos collecting, got chatting to the sales girl.. asked her how many PS they got.. none!!
No Argos stores got them, or Harvey Norman.. they were let down by Sony.. they were expecting them and nothing arrived!!

I paid using Revolut which only works for Indonesia, Turkey and India PSN accounts

After all of the reviews i saw for the controller and knowing what to expect I am still blown away by how good it feels while playing through Astros's Playroom.

petes

Controller is excellent!

Mine arrived.

Started Astros Playroom. Not 5 mins in, the entire console froze. Nothing would wake it. Had to unplug the power to get it going again. This is potentially not good...

You could look for a playthrough on youtube if you wanted to have a quick flick through and check yourself but I would think it would be fine for a kid

Genuinely got a shock at how quiet it was when I booted it up after seven years of the PS4.

The disc drive kicking into gear when I put in Demon’s Souls to install was almost reassuring :pac:

First batch of every console will have a few duds. Hopefully it's nothing to serious as I'd imagine you'll be looking at a refund rather than a repair.

Are people selecting collection or delivery on Harvey Norman
