I won't get it and I'm expecting the device to flop, but maybe that's because I have no interest in VR.

I'm preordering it, then using the rime to try to get approval from the wife. I think I can sway her on $400...

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

A lesser man than I would have capitalized on this perfect PS4 shade set up.
I, however, am indeed no lesser man.

Hahahahaha You are a kind and civil sould my friend.
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.

Same price in Australia, and even higher in New Zealand. Though yes, RIP our Canadian pesos indeed... 
And I do believe it'll flop badly here. Consumers aren't as willing as you think to spend lots on accessories. The kinect was only 100$, yet sold meh. It only did well because it was bundled with so many xbox consoles.
Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
still no amazon update :(

| Metrium said: Haha, no way anyone is getting this at 550$ in Canada. Atleast I know I won't, and especyaly not at launch knowing Sony's track record for supporting their gimmicks. |
I'm getting it day 1. It all evens out with all the money I have been saving since gas is 40c less per liter.
And it turns out Sony is supporting their gimmicks, move and camera will now be useful for more than just dance!

What is the Canadian peso's value against the greenback , the Australian dinera is worth around 74 /75cents to the greenback ,and $499.00 is around what it should retail for, but this is Sony who had the launch PS4 $100 cheaper than xbone but here it was just $50.00 difference , I remember not that long ago when the Aussie was trading up if I recall it peaked between $1.05 and S1.10 it took a fair while for the savings on imported goods to be passed on and while it happened it with games any way it wasn't the full deal when we reached parity games where still selling at $79 to $89 new , but it was much faster the other way when the reverse happened.
