EB seems to do things a little differently when it comes to this. Whereas the other big retailers like Bestbuy, Futureshop, Amazon, etc. seemed to simply stop taking pre-orders at a certain point, EB will always accept a pre-order, but simply not guarantee for a certain date (I could be wrong on this). If they said you'd have one on launch, I suppose that's a different story.
I pre-ordered the One at EB in the beginning of October and got the call today that I'd have it tonight. It also sounds like they received a few extra Day One editions, so I was upgraded to one of those.
I also pre-ordered a PS4 only a couple of weeks ago and am supposedly in the queue for the next shipment (they told me this would be the case when I pre-ordered). Pre-orders that were made after September/October started to get into second shipment territory, it seems.
