I ordered two from Best Buy.

Frankly, I'm not impressed with what I've seen so far. But, I placed the orders so I know I can get them if I decide I want them. As it stands now though, there's probably a 70% chance I cancel both.

From southern Cali I ordered 1 from Best Buy online right after presentation (colored) then walked in next morning to GameStop to pre order their final color version. I do assume I was a little lucky but can't know for sure.

Preordered mine a week ago at EB Games, will probably price match both the system and Zelda if any of the other places price lower.

You guys know that high percentage of the pre-order are simply buyer with the intention of reselling the unit. Seem like Nintendo might go back to their old way of creating artificial scarcity.

Reselling only works if there is demand.

But Nintendo isn't doing any scarcity tactic. That is a stupid false falacy. Companies don't do that.

Sarcasm?
