• Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!

What is the status of your next-gen pre-order?

It doesn't happen around here too often but am I the only one a little concerned that their Gamestop is going to get burgled? RIP to both my PS5 and XSX if that happens. Maybe I think about these things more since I work at a 911 center. I asked some officers to provide extra patrol lol

No point in worrying about something that is out of your control.
 
For anyone wondering about their ms store pre-order.

Contacted local ms store support, and he told me payments are being done in batches.
He also said that the last payments could be done as late as monday for delivery on nov 10.

Awesome, thanks for sharing. I was curious when the Pending charge on my CC would transition to a charge.
 
Amazon updated today!

Pre ordered PS5 from 3 different retailers here in Sweden back in March and they all have sent out mails that it won't be delivered until first quarter 2021...

Picking up the series X Tuesday morning, the $200 balance of which will be paid by the trade-in of my One X. I'm not sad to get rid of it. It's a project Scorpio edition too.

My PS5 pre-order on German Amazon has yet to be shipped. It estimates an arrival day of the 26th. I have yet to be charged.

If you were the guy or gal that suggested German Amazon the day PS5 pre-orders went live, I owe you one.

3090 Rog Strix is yet to be purchased. I can't find one for the life of me.

All hail video games.
 
2 PS5s and 2 XSXs ready to go for next week, day and date. 1 from Amazon, 3 from Target.

Joining them are a slew of games and accessories.

Next week promises to be glorious.
 
I got another e-mail from Best Buy telling me to review my pre-order and payment information. I ignored the first e-mail telling me to schedule a pre-9AM appointment. The whole point of pre-ordering is to secure the console it without having to get up early. I expect to pick it up on my own time.
 
Ordered mine 9/17 from Target. It's said the same as it said that day

"Estimated delivery between 11/13-11/18" Blah. It's fine if it's late a few days I guess
 
Locked and loaded. Went into my local Game Stop store today and paid off my balance. Good to go for Tuesday morning. I do wish they were opening the night before but with Covid they are not allowed to do it. They will open at 10am though instead of the normal 12 noon they have been.
 
I'm ready to go on Amazon UK with the Pulse 3D headset which is arriving on the 12th and has been updated on Amazon to 'arriving Thursday', and the PS5 on the 19th.

I'm still pissed that we in the UK have to wait an extra week for the system when people in the US get it a week early. I mean why? The systems are surely already in warehouses ready to be sent out so why the hell are we being forced to wait an extra week for sweet fuck all? It's utter BS.

The MS charge on my CC for xsx is no longer showing up...weird
 
GameStop sent an email saying that I need to sign for it or just give my name verbally (covid guidelines), but I'm going to be working most of the day. Can a family member sign for me?

Pre-ordered XSX from Best Buy & will be having it shipped. Anyone with experience with buying from Best Buy online? Do they shoot for it to arrive on release date? I haven't been charged yet.
 
Both consoles from Amazon have ship dates..Series X Tuesday and PS5 the 12th.

Cancelled Yakuza Like a Dragon a bit worried about turn based gaming and GodFall turned into a wait and see. Demon Souls coming with the PS5, which will probably keep me busy anyways.
 
Charged a few days ago by Microsoft Store for XSX, still pending on my bank account but "paid" on Microsoft Store order page.

Hope for 10th November delivery but if it will be a bit late I won't be mad. Nothing special to play on it anyway. Still have my XOX running.
 
Cancelled Amazon PS5, Cancelled Best Buy Series X. Best Buy PS5 says it will ship by the 12th.
 
I'm in the UK and ordered in store from Game. I had to go in earlier this week to pay it off before the new lockdown started. Kind of annoying that they pulled the Xbox out from the back to scan the barcode then took it back but it's ready to pick up between 0800 and 0830 Tuesday morning.
