I ordered one from wal mart as that was the only place still available. Hopefully it's a Scorpio as I read that all preorders will be it. If not, i will just return it.
This is why I don't want to see amazon become a monopoly. Damage the competition by luring the buyers away from them with incentives and then removing it. Imagine no best buy, no toys r us or ebgames and what do we have?
Value, yes. But not as an investment in terms of profiting from it. If a day comes when I need to sell my collection, I fully know that I will never recover the money I spent on it.
I doubt anyone is buying this as an investment. I'm not. This goes into my collection that are never opened. I also preordered the Premium Edition and the regular one to play.
If this trend continues, you may not have a job in retail anymore.
I remember stores being more packed before Black Friday events started in Canada. Now it seems that Boxing Day sales will die off as retailers can't afford to host two events one after the other.
The controller is much more harder to obtain as Nintendo made very few of them. The store where I bought my NES only got two controllers and it was bought by the first person in line.
I got one early this morning. I texted my boss and told her I would be late as I had something important to do. This was while I was standing in line waiting for Wal Mart to open at 7. I was the 14th person in the line and they had 22 available.
I know Forza 6, Assassins Creed Syndicate, Halo 5, NHL 16 FIFA 16 Metal Gear Solid, PS4 & One Controllers, Guitar Hero and Lego Dimensions are on sale. Also there is a 3DS XL Super Mario 3D Land Bundle available. Prices not known yet.
