    Re: 2nd shipment confirmed for friday

    Call two targets and they don't have them. One store said January. I don't really understand the point of them getting the system for one day to sell, sell 30 units, then claim they aren't getting any until a month and a half later.

      Well, after a few phone calls and a trip to two stores none of the Targets or Wal-Marts in my area have any today.

      If anyone is able to find one for themselves and an extra i'd appreciate it. I've got the funds in hand.

        I was at my local gamestop and the guy and I were talking about my place on the list and other things. He said that they are getting 1,000 units on friday for the 12 area stores, he seemed like he knew what he was talking about, so I am going to hold onto a little bit of hope that I can pick mine up this afternoon.

            Yeah that seems to be the rumor that I'm hearing. Gamestop and EB might get a big shipment in, but they'll be given out to those that pre-ordered. They won't have any left over for those that didn't.

            I'm not sure what's true or not anymore.

                Sigh... I'm going to check after work, but my guess is that I'll have no luck either. Looks like a lot of us who didn't pre-order will have to get lucky to get one. Or pay a ridiculous amount on ebay.

                  Before, I was willing to pay for it on ebay but forget all that. I'm not even going that low. Well, I called all the stores and heard that they won't be receiving any until February and March. From now on, they're going to be filling in pre-orders. I checked online and they still have them ridiculous joints up. I guess I won't be having one until next year then. Won't be that bad though cause I'll just have to enjoy my holiday with my family....

                    Local Gamestop stated that there had indeed been a second shipment this week, but it was so small a shipment that only 25% of Gamestops received 2 consoles each. However, the rep said that Gamestop was expecting a much larger shipment next week.

                    It's all speculation as far as I'm concerned.

                      I already have a 360 but I was looking to get another one for my brother as a Christmas present. I have called a few gamestops and ebs in my area, and nothing.

                      If Microsoft is intentially holding back consoles for hype, I really think they are shooting themselves in the foot. They seem to be pissing a lot of gamers off and if I was one of the pre-orders that didn't make the first shipment, I think I would have waiting on the PS3.

                      Don't get me wrong, I think it is a great machine. I just hate the way companies operate some times. All the extra machines they gave away to the loser celebrites, should have went to the games stores so that real games could get their hands on one.

                          its not that they are holding them back for hype, its that when they moved up the launch date, they didn't move up the date to start manufacturing them.

                              I still wonder if this is only for those that pre-ordered or if they think they'll get enough to start selling to people who didn't pre-order....
