This is a very good time to do the following on each of the sites in the OP:
1) Log into the site
2) Confirm shipping address
3) Confirm payment options (have multiple for when Chase inevitably flags you for fraud)

Don't wait. When the sites lock up these tasks will be extremely difficult.
Thanks for this. Did it right away when I read this. Needed to update the shipping address!

My GS is a no go so I'm all in on Amazon. I wanted to do a trade-in deal at GS or I have credit at Amazon. I ended getting a PS5 through Walmart so I'm not willing to go through another store where I don't have any money saved through credit for this too. So let's see.

Bowser strikes again!
Sorry, the console is at another retailer.

Where are we getting the direct Amazon page? The Series X landing is working fine, but no order links.

I'm just gonna drop a message in here to say thanks. Without the links here, I would have likely missed the Amazon UK pre-order for an XSX. My friends couldn't get any pages to load but they all managed Amazon UK so I thank you for them too!

Same for PS5 too.

Anyone have any idea how the Amazon or Best Buy sites are supposed to work?

The link on the OP just goes to an advertisement page. Will there likely be a separate product page we'll have to search for right at 8?

Dogs, often known as pups or good buddies, typically herald the oncoming of technology purchases.

Real answer - we saw pups at the Amazon link for PS5, so it's suggesting it's a legit link if we all hang tight.

Yup, turns out the images of the dogs didn't even load on my end. I thought there was some cool lingo that I wasn't aware of.

GameStop employees just came out and said they don't know how many they are allocated for yet, but hopefully will know soon. Saving grace is that they are going to hand out tickets and I'm second in line.

Can't believe I'm buying this when there are no release games I care about besides Halo before it was delayed. 2 days later i'll most likely be playing Demons Souls and Spidey. I hope we get some last gen game patches at least.
Ya I would *assume* there will be a lot of "last gen" games that will be updated, or at least benefitting from back compat enhancements day 1. Gamepass should keep people busy too. But ya, actual "new" games are thin so far

The main Amazon listing is dead too, so I wouldn't worry that the backdoor is showing doggos. It should be a good sign.

Easily counted 20 people at my local Gamestop. They must have gotten a pretty good allocation.

Good luck to everyone that still needs to get a console!

I am happy I got my X and my father was also later able to still find an online store with one.
