If you're in Scarborough, if it ships tonight, you should get it tomorrow. Anyone in the Toronto area usually gets things shipped out the day before.
Yo man, we're sorta neighbours now. I'm on the danforth now!

Well, maybe by next console launch Canadian online retailers will have their shit together.
Depends on if people buy them all and if Wal Mart notices the glitch.

Fuck me, that's where I have to go tonight, and I won't get there until like 10-10:30. This is going to be ridiculous.
Same deal for me, except from FS. I'm not expecting it to be here by tomorrow though, based on my history with them. Not that I'm in any rush anyways.
Which one is that? Sounds like a place I used to frequent on yonge near bloor
He owns both stores. This one is on the south side of Danforth, just west of Jones and east of Pape but closer to Jones.

I'm gonna go line up at the Guelph Wal-Mart plaza store around 10 or 11. If anyone sees a fellow in an N7 Mass Effect sweater, feel free to say hi! I'll probably be playing a 3DS and with a few other guys.
Hey guys, fyi - if you can wait, and didn't take advantage of the Futureshop 20 buck off preorders, Saturday is 20x points at Shoppers. I plan on going nuts there - extra ps4 controller, AC 4, Lego Marvel, and possible COD. Usually they have a bonus redemption day a week or 2 after bonus points days so I can score some Xbone games for cheap...
Mine hasn't even changed on the website yet
I want to take tomorrow off work, but I'm not going to pull the trigger on it if the console isn't going to arrive
Sick, I'll pop over sometime soon. Any chance of early game sales there? Haha

just got my tracking number from FS to Edmonton via expedited shipping. Now I just have to wait to see if I get it on Friday or Monday.
:lol Highly doubtful man. Mom and pop shops fear Big Brother.
An older guy named Sam is usually there. Nice guy.
I'm there on Nov 22nd to pick up Zelda and Mario. My nieces are already counting down the days.
Hope mine follows soon... Still nothing yet. I don't care anymore if i get it on Monday, as long as they finally ship it out...

Damn, I remember like 4 years ago getting Mirror's Edge from the yonge location a half a week before. Maybe I just need to try and sweet talk my boys at a&c.
A&C by Spadina. Gar and his brother?
Shipped!! Glad i went with FS they got all my games on release date, and estimated arrival is tomorrow. Im im markham so i should def receive it!
Anyways, it was fun following this thread even though I didnt post much.. I hope all my fellow canadians get their ps4 tomorrow! Keep in mind FS web service is crap and updates much later than actual ship date according to staff post on FS forum.

Well, there was no one in line at the Montreal downtown Future Shop as of an hour ago, in case anyone was wondering if they wanted to spend the entire night hanging out on Ste Cath.

Not all stores have midnight launch.

Futureshop has never let me down living in toronto. I get everything on release day with their free shipping. I should have gone with them for the quadruple.
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.

Yeah, I meant lining up for the 8AM opening.
That's normal. I've actually received a game before I was able to get tracking information.
I was freaking out there that it meant they wouldn't ship until tomorrow
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?
