Thanks for checking for us, patience is a virtue now...just measure and dust/clean where we will unload it I guess.
Just FYI - You can set up a PS4 controller for use on PS3... you’ll have some issues related to the PlayStation button depending on how you set it up (wire to PS3 first, then register it as a blue tooth device) but it will work. There’s tutorials and stuff and it’s incentivized me to finish some PS3 games since I much prefer the PS4 controller now.
To be fair the dual shock 4 and dual sense had some innovation, touch, speakers, lighting, microphones, haptics, etc. Also, the ps3 went all wireless. Wireless controllers were hella rare when the ps2 was around. In fact the only good wireless controller that generation was the wave bird on game cube. At least Sony innovates their controllers to at least justify a repurchase.
Giving us a reason to upgrade is one thing; imposing it as the only option and justifying that as the reason, is another. I'm not against upgrades, or innovation, but dropping support for an 'outdated' peripheral, one that fully functions on the system mind you, is just plain greedy.
Just got my Series X like half and hour after I posted on here. It was from Walmart. So you MAY get it today.
My boy is losing it right now cause they told him the same thing. His doesn’t have a delivery date and says email when available. Lol.
I really don’t see it that way as the dual sense is pretty evolutionary. Also, you can’t develop games with 4 different controller variants in mind. You know? I have to give them credit they at least try something new each generation and the dual sense seems to be living up to the hype. At least they’re not pumping out the same controller year after year forcing you to rebuy the same crap.
That would be great lol . We shall see
Nah, actually I don't use my PS4 controllers for anything that the PS3 controllers didn't do. Besides the mic jack, I suppose you could count that.
I haven't had any movement or any news, but it is just weird that they would have this issue if they plan to sell stock on release day, as i have read may be the case.
The ps4 controller was designed for psvr in mind. That’s why the first version on the controller only lit in the front. The second revision added that window to show lighting effects so it would have more purpose. Basically the psvr was supposed to come out around launch but got hella delayed.
Corporations learned a long time ago if you give the consumer the option to upgrade versus forcing it, they'll never make their money back. People will most likely go for the cheapest option, sticking with what they have versus getting something new unless they need it. So in this case - they mandate it so it sells. Don't forget companies exist to make money... so they do what's in their own best interest, not the consumer's.
Not debating what the point of any business is. A company also makes no money off one-time purchases, it's the repeat business that sustains them. My shift to Xbox this generation means that they're losing a vast majority of software sales on their platform aside from exclusives. The wife isn't even picking up a PS5, which is a two-decade long first so while it's fine to make money on accessories, there's only so far that will carry them when considering brand loyalty.
I’m the opposite. At least with games. I’m honestly not sure about getting my series x because I don’t see a reason to. I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure out why I should and I can’t. No launch exclusives, not updated features, and though the hardware is amazing, it won’t reach its full potential for a couple years anyway. I really want a reason to keep my series x but I can’t find one. I don’t have any reasons not to get a ps5. Better sound with 3D audio, better controller with dual sense, exclusives on launch, and better hardware. Though it won’t reach its potential for a few years as well, the other things give me a reason to get it day 1.
Having Game Pass in the den is my only reason for getting XSX honestly. It's a damn good one though.
That has been my experience with Walmart. Hoping the same won’t be the case at target. Spoke with bestbuy today and it seems like my preorder is confirmed for a Thursday pick up. No clue what’s going on with my target order.
Don’t do either.
Keep an eye on brickseek for a good Keurig deal. One of the best investments for a coffee drinker. Or if you need to-go coffee, McDonald’s has probably the best fast food coffee out there, coffee that costs a dollar has no business being that good
Nope not yet
Not to be pessimistic but that’s been my experience. Even had them cancel things I preordered day 1 and were in stock locally. Makes no sense, they just blame the manufacturer. I will never preorder there again. Happened 3 times this year and zero f(s) were given.
Oof, you savage! Then again, I am a coffee snob so I can't really judge what people prefer to drink.
Mehh it's more or less for me being too cheap to pay $6/day for coffee from these big chains and I hate Starbucks coffee. We have a local coffee shop that's fairly expensive but their coffee is bomb. I'll treat myself every once in awhile to their coffee but they're the exception, and I like to support local businesses.Oof, you savage! Then again, I am a coffee snob so I can't really judge what people prefer to drink.
Same on my PS5 order, I hope it's not the same fiasco with the Series X where they send e-mails about delays
It’s a comically large adapter...maybe 2.5-3 inches long for some reason.My PS Camera Adaptor somehow got delayed in Alabama and won't arrive until Thursday. My Preorders at Target and Amazon US have yet to ship. This is going to be a mentally slow week
Crazy isn't it? I'm planning on canceling my other orders once one ships
Is there a way to track it? I signed up the day it was available and haven't heard anything
I would like to know this also. I know someone said they were coming via FedEx, but I couldn't find a way on the FedEx site since I don't have a tracking number.
