Anyone else have an instore preorder? Were you able to pay it off before hand, or did they tell you to pay on launch?

 

[chimster]

I got a call from EB saying I can come pick it up at midnight.

What's the procedure for this kind of thing? Am I supposed to pre-pay before a certain amount of time? Or do they keep the store open longer so people can pay before midnight and then everyone just goes in at midnight and it's a 5 minute in and out procedure?

They just have the store open past 12 so people can come in to pay and pick up their purchase

I do. Paid $50 for the initial deposit plus $81 with game trade-ins towards the PS4. I probably could have paid the whole thing off before if I wanted to and they didn't tell me anything about the subject, but I'll just pay the rest tomorrow.

 

[Tabris]

Need more discussions on lineups! I'm still debating whether I go at 9pm, 11pm, or I don't.

 

[MARNEY]

You lining up downtown smiley?

EDIT - Just realized you said not at all. Nevermind

 

[TimHortons]

In fact, I'm almost certain that there are no midnight launches in Montreal because of legal issues here. Earliest they can be open tomorrow is at 8 AM.

There's one that I know of...

MicroPlay, 3101 rue Masson is doing a midnight launch.

naw. If I had nothing to do tomorrow, maybe I would have, but........ I have an exam. :lol

most I'll consider doing is dropping by the local EB/Walmart/Shoppers/London Drugs(?) tomorrow morning to see if there are any around.

 

[johnnyg87]

Anyone in downtown Toronto get their FS notification yet??

 

[FrsDvl]

Still no shipping for me

 

[Samyy]

Anyone in Mississauga, Erin Mills area lining up @ EMTC? Want to know if theres a big line, wanna head down soon so I can get it asap and get home at a reasonable time :/

 

[Luigi87]

Still no tracking number from Best Buy (in Hamilton, ON)
-_-

 

[djblue89]

I am going to be in line at a Montreal location (West Island) to get one a 8am just don't know which one, I called the Futureshop in Pointe-Claire and they have around 50 available tomorrow

 

[BigJonsson]

Still no shipping news

 

[vulva]

A&C by Spadina. Gar and his brother?

yeah gar and chang. They're my boys. I wouldn't ever actually bug them to try and get an early release on anything, though.

 

[DopeyFish]

Just a heads up for those that care

Shoppers Drug Mart at least in the GTA will be carrying PS4s

If you can manage to find one that has one that still has them in stock on Saturday, its 20x the points.

You buy a PS4 and one game, that gets you $170 off next purchase pre-tax... or almost 3 games free (or averaged out $13 a game)

damn. What are the odds they'll still have some on Saturday though :lol

 

[DopeyFish]

Well... fairly low. I expect most to have 2 systems

You can beg someone to hold, fairly good about putting stuff on hold for 20x events

 

[Ramblin]

I did. I'm about 3 hours south of Mississauga.

You ain't 3 hours south unless you live in the lake? You're 3 hours southwest.

 

[Tabris]

I'll be there! I'm going with my boyfriend and our friend, around 8-830. We are just picking up our preorder so we don't need to be so early, but our friend actually wants to grab one of the extras so that's why we are going early. I fully expect there to be people before us.

Hey can you post here at the status of the line up when you arrive?

 

[Tiktaalik]

people lined up outside Robson and Granville FS already FYI

Damn lol I was expecting the line to start at around 7. It's gonna be crazy there tonight.

 

[Smiley90]

Might drop by tomorrow morning and see if they have a system. If they do, I'll ask to put it on hold til tomorrow and if they don't do that then I'll just buy it on the spot...

that is, IF they have it.

Does London Drugs get any PS4's?

 

[Tiktaalik]

If you have a pre-order you will probably be better served waiting until tomorrow

Just call now and ask... larger the store, the better the chances

 

[PlayingKarrde]

Wow...

4p local Vita Spelunking at Robson anyone?

 

[Tiktaalik]

I feel obligated to bring my Vita instead of 3DS since this is a sony event.

 

[Tabris]

I don't have a pre-order. I don't want any PS4 games yet but I'm in new gadgetitist mode right now.

Just go Smiley
DO IT!

 

[Smiley90]

SHUT UP YOU'RE IN HIGH SCHOOL YOU HAVE IT EASY

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

It's cray cray how stores without midnight launches already have lines. Seen a best buy and a futureshop.

 

[Smiley90]

I called LD, they have... FOUR units.

:lolololol

Might still be worth checking out, as people will flock to EB and Walmart.

 

[sCHOCOLATE]

But those StreetPasses.

 

[ohlawd]

But those StreetPasses.

doubt that shit lol.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

Curious to hear what the lineup is like for Downtown Toronto - I think FS is getting 100 and BB 250 unreserved consoles

 

[Smiley90]

LOOOOL

The only Walmart with a PS4 midnight opening in BC is... in... KAMLOOPS?!?

what the fuck Walmart? :lol

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Lineup in Heartland was massive. Very massive.

 

[PlayingKarrde]

Does anyone have any idea what the larger places like Robson Futureshop took for pre-orders? Like let's say there are 250 people waiting to get a non-preorder one, how many will there be extra who have pre-orders?

 

[Returners]

Got my tracking number, but nothing on Canada Post website.

 

[mf.luder]

I did. I'm about 3 hours south of Mississauga.

Whereabouts are you?

I'm in niagara and I would say I'm south of Mississauga but in definitely not 3 hours away.

 

[Shalashaska161]

We need to make a support group for us Amazon peeps. This is going to be a long, long weekend.

 

[elty]

I did. I'm about 3 hours south of Mississauga.

South of Missisauga, wouldn't that be Lake Ontario?

 

[djblue89]

My FS still has not shipped, good thing I'm lining up for the 8am openings...
