LOL anyone remember the news from gamestop not so long ago?

WiiU preorders sold out, we UP to 500,000 and now we got a waiting list also. We also have 1.2million software on preorder.

I think the 500k was the amount of Wii U systems they had available though.

Why are people pre-ordering from a soon to be dead company?

Because by putting money down, you are supporting this company and preventing it from dying.


No thanks.

I agree, however I think they cocked it up in their press release as it was relayed as having sold out. That is why there was a lot of people surprised that Wii U sales were low due to their comments.

It was kind of funny cause the predictions from about 400K went up to asbout 800K for some people based on game having sold out the 500K lol.

After what Gamestop said about WiiU pre-orders I wouldn't take any of them too seriously.

HW was off (sold 320k WiiUs in 2012), SW was off (1.2m game pre-orders but probably closer to 500k sold).

And GAME is tiny in comparison.

I admit that I am a bit of a Sony fanboy. But this is just ridiculous. How can you commit to buying something if you don't even know the price or fully what it is yet?

how can you pre-order something that has no price tag :O


Better yet, How can you pre-order something that hasn't even been shown yet by Sony?

I'm sorry, but its going to take a lot than just pre-orders and the PS4 itself to save Sony.

To "save" Sony? No way they're in any form of trouble at all!!

I seriously thought that for a brief second. This is the main gaming website I visit and based on my thought, it really shows.

Its good to see some Xbox fans here on this site, because I feel like they are underrprestented on this site and drown out by the loud Nintendo and Sony fans .
