Wii and PS3 kiosks are now up.
2006-11-04, 6:03 PM #1
Best Buy got their Wii kiosks in today but they haven't set them up in stores yet and Gamestop has been setting them up the past day or two. If you don't see them up yet, they will be before the week is over. The PS3 kiosks haven't come in to most places yet but they will by the end of the week. The Wii kiosks have Excite Truck on them and that's it as far as I have heard so far (I expected Wii Sports as well, but I haven't heard one way or the other yet). The PS3 kiosks will have Resistance: Fall of Man and MotorStorm. W00t.
Think while it's still legal.

I saw one in a GameStop yesterday.

Is it just me or is no one doing pre-orders this time around?

Everyone is OUT of preorders.

I wonder when we're getting those Kiosks in...
2006-11-05, 2:21 PM #8
Every place I checked said they hadn't STARTED (or weren't going to start) pre-orders yet (for Wii, I don't care about PS3)

Gamestop/EB already did their pre-orders. Walmasrt and TRU too I believe.
2006-11-05, 2:29 PM #10
Yeah, Walmart and TRU are out. So is Cosco.
2006-11-05, 2:29 PM #11

Maybe I'll get one if I get a TV for X-mas

There's been some sources for the numbers of Wii's that will be avalible at Target stores on launch day. The one near me will be receiving 52 or so (There's at least 4 Targets in my area).

I'm not too worried about the pre-order situation.

Now, on the other hand, if you're trying to get a PS3 launch day...good luck!

You're a dumbass.
I had a blog. It sucked.
2006-11-05, 5:24 PM #20
You have room to talk?

So?

Anyone with a dumbass level lower than Tiberium (everyone) has room to talk. I don't (didn't, he's sorta stopped) post numerous threads alike with the same polls, I don't start (with the exception of a few I'll admit to being stupid) stupid threads, so please do elaborate on how I am a dumbass. Enlighten me so I may change my ways and have room to talk, like the infallible Rob.

Fake Ipod

Failure to use an adhesive tape to secure little brother to tree
Posting thread about failure to use duct tape and or adhesive tape to secure little brother to tree.

I could go on.

But it's rather clear that I have won.

None of those incidents have occurred within the last month, or hell probably even the last 3. I've learned from the fake iPod experience and I'm still using it, and I'm not buying electronics off of eBay again. How does the fact that I've changed my idea of buying stuff off of ebay make me a dumbass? The fact that I did it in the first place? I'm not doing it again, so how can you POSSIBLY hold that against me?

And the last part was just for fun, I didn't care whether I succeeded or not, I spent an afternoon doing something. I once again fail to see how I'm a dumbass.

I'm gonna agree with SC.

How can something that's backwards compatable with the other be worse than said other?

I don't trust Sony's backward compatibility. I tried playing ChronoCross on ps2 and it wouldn't even get past the intro screen :(.

Then you lose. I've had the same memory card since I got my PS2 around release day. Thing is, my save files aren't corrupt. Nothing on the entire card has every been corrupt.

It's called be careful. Not all elecrtrical equipment is designed to be used by someone such as yourself. :saddowns:

But that same card from the year 2000 still costs 30 bloody dollars!
FOR 8 MEGS OF SPACE!

You can buy a hard disk.
If you say it's too expensive, then quit crying and suck it up.
