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.

Lol, I love how people enter a thread about anectdotal evidence and their thoughts on it, and instead of offering anything to the thread, they decide to critisize people for contributing to the thread.    As with Joel's thread, if all you're going to do is offer criticism to posters, without adding anything to the thread, just leave.

Also, I could bring up Holiday '09.  You know, where BF week the PS3 sold ~486K in Americas, while the 360 only sold ~354K, for a difference of ~132K in the PS3's favor.
