The line at market mall was significantly longer than anticipated.

Good energy? Fun people? I haven't done too many line ups for physical releases in a bit.

To be honest I wasn't really in the mood, I had just worked a 13 hour day. Everyone else was pretty happy in spite of the wait.

Markup on Facebook isn't even that bad, I would have figured they'd be a lot more, maybe the supply ended up being enough? There's others for more, but lots for under $900.

Northland Best Buy had what seemed like a cage full of both the console and the bundle. They said they weren't pre-orders and that they had got the most in the city. So if you're looking for one, I'd head there.

With Nintendo having presumably stocked up for a big launch, we're probably going to see some kind of ridiculous launch record numbers right?

EDIT:

I wonder if it'll still be available after work today. Curious how quickly those will move.
Pretty impressive to see how stocked everyone is though - a far cry from those 2020 PS5/XSX launches

No worries, we are all just helping each other out here! I did the same for original Switch and PS5 back during COVID. It's a great time to be gaming for everybody!

Heh, I was worried about spam messaging people. There is a 60 second limit between messages lol.
