Gonna do Amazon for my PS5
And my experience with the Day one Xbox One X launch was so dope at the Microsoft store i'm going to go there.

Direct from the platform if possible (ex. Microsoft Store) but most likely from Amazon, and Best Buy as a backup.
My PS5 will be through Amazon and the Anaconda directly through Microsoft or amazon if I can't get it through them, probably Microsoft because I have $180 in credit.
Last time Amazon sent me an extra PS4 day 1. Will never happen again but hey it was definitely nice.

GameStop. I know one of the Store Leaders and made arrangements ensuring I'll get a day one launch PS5.
Amazon probably. Depends on if I can/want to take time off for launch. If I can I'll go Best Buy, otherwise it'll be Amazon.
Somewhere that does a midnight opening so I can collect them by hand and not be at the mercy of awful U.K. post. I had a DHL parcel that went out for delivery every day for four days and still never made it to me recently. I had to drive to the depot on the fifth day and hand collect it.
So probably Asda or something.

Gamestop if they have a good trade deal for the current gen systems. They had really good trade deals here and there for my base systems when upgrading to a One X and Pro. Just as much or a little more than I would have gotten if I had sold them myself.
Likely Amazon if they don't.

Normally Amazon but my wife's on my account now. Ain't now way I want her knowing how much the damn things will cost...

Probably Gamestop. I'll pay a on them a bit at a time starting in the summer, then I'll trade in my X1X towards Scarlet and PS4 Pro towards the PS5 a few days before they release to finish them off.
I was very happy with the results pre-ordering my Xbox One X online with Microsoft Store. Going with them with the next Xbox.
I prefer Best Buy but they never do midnight openings at my local store. It will likely be GameStop or wait until the next day. There are two Gamestops here so I expect one of them to close and the other remain open.
EDIT - That's assuming they are 100% BC. If they are not, then I'll probably wait until I've played through the PS4 exclusives I haven't finished yet (I haven't even started GoW or SpiderMan despite owning them. I just don't have the time). I'm hopeful both machines will be fully BC so I can just move my backlog pile over.

Pre-order from local store with "pay on pickup" -option, so that keeps order active up to one week from day-1 and give me time to read reviews and better evaluate if I actually have need for the damn things.
Ha this is me. Also every game now I play is on Gamepass so I didn't pay for it "wink wink"
As for the thread probably the MS store since the mall near me has a location.
Probably a PS5 from Amazon. I think I'll hold on an Xbox this time since i beefed up my PC. and have three years of Game Pass. Feelin' great about next gen.
If I do a preorder it will be from Amazon and wait for delivery. There needs to be a truly killer game to make me do that though.
Switch was the last one I grabbed on day 1 and it was totally worth it even though it didn't arrive until 9pm.
