Yep. I’ve always done disk mode. I can’t do digital. Plus, why have an entertainment center if I can’t fill it up with old game cases?

I don’t think the shortages are worse than previous generations. I think just the way things are distributed now is different. We’re so used to one click and it’s here in 2 days.

I think we are dealing with the same stuff as usual, but now we have to compete with bots on top of it instead of just people camped outside of Best Buy.

If they cancelled a bunch of orders, why are they doing another release?

Yea, they cancelled for overselling... why would they try to sell more? Seems like a PR nightmare

my guess is this. the cancelled the orders they knew they couldn't cover first. then checked for bots. kinda shitty, but it is what it is.

Update: target restock was fake, but my dog was super excited she got to eat at 3:30 am. Also, I would say I’ve never seen my office this empty, but ya know.... Rona season

I don’t have kids, but the twinkle in her eyes when I walked in with a cup of food has to be the equivalent of a child’s eyes when they see all the presents on Christmas morning

I assume everybody that has a Walmart order still has a status of "preparing order"??

Yep, double checked this morning.

Wondering what could possibly be the reason they are taking that long to ship. Almost a month? That’s nuts

This reminds me of the time I was waiting on my order at Taco Bell in college.
The Grilled Stuffed Burrito was the new hot item at the time.

After waiting 10 minutes the guy says sorry about the wait. First they gotta stuff it.... Then they gotta grill it.

I couldn't argue with that.




Walmart: Sorry about your wait. First we gotta prepare it. Then we gotta ship it

It's not that I'm even worried about it shipping today.

Its the overall lack of transparency. Would be so easy for them to send a mass email saying. "Hey we know we did a lot of cancellations, but you good"
