Hate to say it, but GameStop with their €50 queue system have played a blinder here, intentional or not.

Went into my GS today and said about me preordering in July (thought it was earlier), he said they don't have exact numbers yet but a preorder in July should be OK, they will have numbers next week so he told me to pop back in then. He also said they would be ringing people who preordered throughout the year once they have more info and let them know if its a guarantee or not. So fingers crossed. I think Sony deliberately kept numbers back for the free advertising they got from panicked shoppers.

Sony releasing new preorders to stores in the 'next few days' keep eye on smyths I'd say and this thread.

Edit: to add, smyths only require a credit card and will only take money day before or day off release. Maybe make an account on their website for quicker preorder when it does appear.

I put my Parcel Motel number in the address line and then use a comma to add the address on that line and the parcel motel number always comes up under my name. I never use the name line as that usually causes issues, always use the address line for the parcel number

Grand I'll ask them to fix it by doing that then cheers!!

If more pre orders are coming and there will be more consoles available right through to year end then the scalpers will be out of luck, with a bit of luck!

Delighted for that d!ckhead on Adverts that is supposed to have 20 or 30 consoles. If there is enough availability he won't get a cent over retail, will probably have to sell for less as who is going to buy from some knob on Adverts over an actual store.

Realistically he'll just cancel his pre-orders if no one's buying them but time isn't free either so still a better outcome than making an obscene profit doing nothing of value

big time saw that there while ago. Saw someone say he sold I think 300 Nintendo switches back in April for 500 a pop. So 39k profit there if standard ones for 330. Must know someone to get stock like that no other way. Just not sure how stores don't miss that amount.

People nuts at moment paying for them off scalpers when might be chance they get them in shops.

It's a right brick of a machine to be fair. They could've slimmed it down a tad.

Mr Crispy

Yeah. Some of those angles are not flattering!

He will make a profit even at retail. He looks to be getting them direct from suppliers and not from shops. So I am sure he gets them for same price at the shops do. No way someone would risk their money especially someone like him or other people who sell lots of stuff. Clearly they know what they are doing.

That said even if it was from shops , its easy as hitting a cancel button.

From personal experience from last few launches these wont be available even with more stock announced. Most retailers are already oversold so will be just hoping to cover that. Also there is way higher demand this gen then any other till date.

Cancelled my Gamestop order.

I have managed to get from Smyths and also Amazon as backup.

Gamestop one was placed as soon as their preorders went live so good chance of being delivered on launch day but didnt want to take my chances with them myself so hopefully it will go to someone in queue.

Yupp confirmed it comes with stand. Looks like it's needed for both horizontal and vertical position.

Really looking forward to the tear down.

There must be some serious cooling involved given the CPU and GPU clocks as well as for the SSD.

Reckon there'll be more available between launch and xmas?

I think it was Varik mentioned on the PS4 thread or will use liquid metal cooling and should be far superior to what we had in ps4. I'd love to know if i can keep in a shelf of the tv unit, open at the friend and hole at the back for cables or of i will have to stand it beside the telly unit squeezed between unit and wall. None really ideal but i just hope it's quiet.
