Still trying to figure out what the hidden content is...

Ok. Seems they changed the way that works at some point.

Wonder if we'll get any more Sony Direct stock this week.

Optimistic Skeeter believes they just didn't want to do new stock on the weekend.

Pessimistic Skeeter thinks the dream is dead for a few weeks.

Yeah it's very hard to say either way.. i think we know something early in the week. Because if other major retailers besides sony themselves, are waiting on inventory, to ship consoles sold last week.

It would be a bit odd seeing sony sell more consoles, with other major US retailers waiting to fill orders still. Like i said in one of my other posts. Hopefully dates like walmart have given out, are just worst case, and orders ship monday/tuesday. With more inventory being sold this week, here in the US.

This is infuriating. Why can't retailers allow you to place an order and be placed in a queue? Like how it is to order an iPhone. Even if deliver was 3 weeks out you'd still know you had one coming.
It took Apple a few years to figure out the supply and sales issues with their iPhones. I am sure it was a complete nightmare to figure it out. And they make so many of the fucking things and do it every year, not every 5-8 years like with a console. Sony and MS are also trying to do this in the middle of a pandemic. I am sure both are short the number of units they wanted to make and demand seems to be more intense than any launch in years.

But I do agree with getting in line at least in buying from Sony. It would save so much time for all of us. You could just get in a pre-order and get an estimated delivery of next April.

Alright, after much deliberation I decided to buy a PS5 a lot earlier than I normally would buy a new console. I just cant wait with a new Spiderman game out there.

Don't even know how to get started and try to find one, lol. Actually hoping this thread will help

Here's a summation of what we currently know, ordered alphabetically and by order of likeliness:

you can play it on ps4 (if you buy it on ps4 you get the ps5 version free with it) and it's glorified dlc. 10-12 hours long.

That's likely the next chance unless PlayStation Direct does another batch, if I had to guess. No one has anything officially scheduled until then.

Me: Look there's new stock at all the places I called and irritated the fuck out of!

Also me: I dunno, it's probably just black friday stock, just wait or wait till the new year.

Me: I dunno... they COULD be selling it... you should call

Doesn't hurt to call. Just looking at them on Amazon for over 1400 pisses me off. Especially with the order soon 10 left or whatever comment.

I get that it's nothing new like I said I'm old enough to remember N64 going for 800-1100 in the local paper.

Still annoying as hell.

Is anybody else here in the Costco online order boat? I have no info regarding when they're planning to ship it out, I'm curious if anybody got theirs shipped yet.

My nephew really wants a PS5 now (he was an Xbox fan last gen) - spending my days refreshing multiple tabs in the hopes I can pounce when stock opens.

So the Walmart Black Friday ad is advertising PS5 and says Wednesday 7pm eastern online only. Are they implying PS5 will be available online the day before thanksgivings?

Playstation Queue is back up though it only took a few seconds to get into the website and there still is no stock. The Ublock script trick isn't working and neither is the f5+esc trick. Seems they patched up the website which really sucks on our end...

I'm in the boat and haven't received any status changes. Someone here said that they reached out to Costco who confirmed that the ship date of 11/23 was holding steady. May ship earlier than that, but I wouldn't put money on it.
