This gets my hopes up, I preordered my ps4 in another state at gamestop and when I went to my local gamestop they said they cant transfer next gen preorders. I waw worried that I couldn't get it until way after release.

Good thing I pre-order from my local wal-mart, I'll get mine on release day :D

Man, Sony is on the ball with this. They've clearly been preparing for a long time.

Well, to be fair, they did have the PS3 launch to learn from

PS3 was just a diversion, PS4 has been mass manufactured for the entire lifespan of the PS3.

Hopefully this means we wont have a ton of stories of people buying 10 PS4s and selling them on ebay for $1000 each.

I'll be surprised if it doesn't immediately sell out and we see a massive shortage just like the ps2 and ps3 days.

Even with additional units available at launch. Their audience has grown exponentially. Amount of gamers has grown significantly in the last couple years and the Xbone incident? Ha.

I'm not exactly in any rush to buy a PS4 since MGSV doesn't come out until 2014 but hopefully this means people won't be murdered over one this year

No way

[Whomobile]

It's already pre-ordered out everywhere I've looked. I was hoping to get one a few days after my birthday but you have to get in the queue to get one next year.

I'll just wait 6 months after the release, then it's a good time for me to buy one.

I'd imagine most stores would hold a 1 or 2 per customer policy.
