Oh man in Orlando? Go to any store. I had to push/swim through hundreds of PS4 units in order to find an Xbox One.

Hey look everyone, it's the one guy you could find a PS4 but not an Xbox One. Remember, the PS4 is in the BLUE box. Not the GREEN one.

On topic, Walmart won't even let you look it up in stores as far as I can tell. No luck at BB or Target either.

That is what he said to me. I prevented him to buy on Amazon in that day it was available for 14h and put the address he will be to be delivered, but he was "It will be easy as cake to find one"... now he thinks I cursed him.


Haha yikes. I get questions about the PS4 all the time at work (Target) and I keep telling people it's still probably going to be at least a couple of weeks before you can just walk into a store and pick one up anytime. It's just anecdotal but demand still seems really high and most (or at least a large chunk) of the people who are looking for PS4's still don't seem to have them.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Just buy from Amazon. No tax and you'll get the console a week later. 

In Brazil there is tax... I will pay between 60%-100 for tax, shipping, handling if I'm not wrong... a lot less than in Brazil (but if it show stock again before the end of the month I'll command him to buy it in US to deliver in US so he won't pay)... if he can't buy I'll when I go to US around July, probably will have plenty of stock by then, unless it pulls a Wii on us (what I doubt mainly because Sony is manufacturing more than Ninty... It would need absurd demand to be out of stock for 2 years).

It was a joke calm down.

He could have been serious who knows (well...he does) but it's just funny to hear. Don't worry I'm plenty calm, just joking around.

In PS4 case it gets a lot of anedoctal of not having stock for few of hidden stocks. Xbone gone fast from one store having stock from one day to the other then readily available, good for american customers, bad for the countries they cuted out.

Yeah that's true. The MS store near me never ran out of Xbox Ones. First dibs on stock...bastards.

Our sony store here also never run of PS4, but for other reasons... the sun of a bitch costs 6x the minimum wage here.
