Might need to stop sniffing glue
The Canadian early game system release trend confuses. Wonder if the same will happen with Switch and Scorpio. If so, it will cement my theory.

Yes. Except mine isn't arriving until next week. Must be how they classify pre-orders.

Vancouver here too. got mine on Sunday
i find it odd since most games I order are always late
Phew good. I wish I could have just used my Amazon Prime account but the 40 dollars off was too good to pass up.

Same here.
So close.
From friends that I know work for Amazon, it was explained to me that 'preparing for shipment' just means that it's been pulled off a pallet and they are sorting, packing and labeling. 'shipping today means it's waiting for the carrier to pick it up.

They never include the stand. They really should.

Cool, thanks!
Are you asking a more display specific version of the general "is the PS4 Pro worth it for 1080p" question? If so, the answer would be highly subjective. Several sites such as eurogamer/df and polygon have relatively extensive reviews up that discuss the 1080p question, if that's what you're interested in you probably want to read through some reports and decide for yourself. If your question is simply about the display interface/cabling then I'm not sure why it would matter unless you were dealing with 4K HDMI cables, for which there are some specific issues to be aware of.

The target pre-orders are not really on backorder.

Does the pro come with the appropriate hdmi cable?

I read that it does.
Amazon Canada delivered mine today. I have some quick impressions. My tv is a XBR75X940D. Loaded up Ratchet and Clank, I bought the Pro for the HDR support and just from the few minutes I played, I am very happy with the results.
Overall the colors and lighting makes the picture look much more natural and authentic. The effect to me is very noticeable, I'm not the most descriptive person, but the difference feels like looking at a post card of some scenery vs actually being there. I took some photos of the screen, but other than this I'm not sure how I can convey the difference here. It doesn't look like native 4k but definitely is better than 1080p upscaled. The game was running ~30fps.

Nice man! Have you tried any other games? How was the data transfer process? How's the controller?
No, it only comes with a scart.
LoL.

Still no thread outlining the details of patches/improvements to each game for 1080p TV owners? 
Really hoping more games have Rise of the Tomb Raider-like options to enhance the overall graphics (not just resolution or frame rate).

Have you preordered online with Target before? It's my first time. Mine also says backordered, but also "delivers by November 10th." Figured it's not actually backordered.
Wondering when I'll see some movement, as we're getting close and I doubt they move as quickly as Amazon.
Just saw the status on my order, came to the thread, and I agree with this. Ordering a new one shows as coming out 11/10. Delivery gives a week window. Everything is going according to plan.
I just ordered a Slim for a friend, from Target, on the same order and it came in less than 2 days after the shipment notification. Email sent with tracking on 3rd - delivered on the 4th.

USPS also gives you discounts on other stores like 10% Lowe's and 20% BB&B and many other discounts.

Not sure where to post this, but I posted earlier that my pro had a broken hdmi out port, It's actually my tv causing problems. I have an LG 43uh6100 4k tv and it refuses to display the pro signal, I tried all 3 hdmi ports and tried several different cables, all hdmi 2.0. I hooked my OG ps4 back up and it works perfect.
I tried the pro on a 1080p plasma in the living room and it works perfect.
Anyone know what's wrong? Thanks

Try turning it on in Safe Mode,

Thanks. I gave that a try, I had a flickering picture for a bit then it went blank again, tried it again on the 1080p plasma and it works fine, I'm not sure if the pro is faulty or my tv isn't compatible with it for some reason.
