Pretty much the same as the OP's experience. The PS3s went up at 10 and I went to check on them at 10:20 and they were all gone. There weren't even people in line asking about them, they had cleared off already. I would imagine the same was true for the 360. Didn't check on the Wiis or Kinect itself. I also went to Toys R Us. They were out of all 160GB PS3s, but still had 3 or 4 320GB ones. Still had like 4 or 5 360 bundles, but I imagine they didn't stay there long after I left. Looks like 360 and PS3 were the major sellers this Black Friday. Can't wait til we get some early numbers.

Edit: Oh and there was a fist fight amongst a large group of black people over a fucking shitty $35 dollar Boost touchscreen phone.  Black Friday is a whacky day.

lol I ove how people use anecdotal evidence to say something is gonna be huge. PS3 did 300k last BF, Wii did 600k and so did 360 .. can't see PS3 being a 'major seller' as always people see what they want to believe.


Well, first of all, this is an anecdotical evidence thread. The title says so. Second, he only said that it LOOKS (obviously by his anecdotical evidence) that 360 and PS3 sold a lot. He didn't "saw what he wants to believe". He saw what was happening at the store. Finally he said he can't wait for numbers. He didn't made any supposition about the numbers.

On topic, here in Mexico, they made a first attempt for a black friday thing. The things that were sold the most were flat Tv's. Lots of Wii's and Kinects were sold. Almost no PS3 were sold, but here in mexico, most people buy or 360's or Wiis. Although there was a great offer of a Huge 3d Tv plus a PS3, and it was 10000 pesos less. This is almost 800 USD less. It was an online only promotion.
