Re: The all inclusive video game thread
I'm guessing these were errors of some sort or testing sales on a very limited stock. I bet these retailers officially announce pre-orders prior to them opening.
Opening them in the middle of the night is just a reason to piss off your customers and reward bots/scalpers.

Re: The all inclusive video game thread
I'm more mad about not receiving the notification emails, than not getting a preorder.

Sounds like GameStop, Toys R Us, and Target's pre-orders will go live today.

Some Canadian store just posted theirs will go on sale at noon Central Time, so in like 35 minutes. Maybe Gamestop is gearing up for it?CopperTom wrote:Ditto. Still no email.

The Gamestop app is still working. It's pulling up those damn guides.

Re: The all inclusive video game thread
The Canadian store posted on Twitter that information. I'm guessing that is when some other retailers will put them up for sale based on Gamestop's unusual web site behavior right now.CopperTom wrote:Gamestop is selling them?

Re: The all inclusive video game thread
I had it purchased before I got the Tracker notification. I was logged into and refreshing Gamestop, Target, Toysrus.com and Walmart. I refreshed at the right time.Monkey_Driven wrote:Wow, they were gone in less than a minute.CopperTom wrote:Got one!!!CopperTom wrote:Walmart page was mildly updated.
