Playstation 3 prices

[BKLYNH2]

They were on line at the bestbuy by me for 2 1/2 days.

If I could've bought a few dozen, well then maybe it'd be worth the wait. But I do mean a FEW DOZEN.

I am one of the dumb assses to pay 500 for a original X-box when they first come out and all it does is gather dust now. Just wait till after christmas, they pull this crap every time and the first units have tons of bugs to fix.

Who's going to buy these things? I think the PS3 is a little overpriced. I remember when I was a kid, N64 was $150 or something, and I thought that was expensive, but could at least try to save up some of that and split it with my parents for Christmas. $600 or whatever is out of the ballpark. Personally, I'm waiting for the Wii, because:
1. Its only $250
2. I like Nintendo
3. I'm hoping the motion-sensing controller means everyone will enjoy playing it (i.e., girlfriends ) because it's more intuitive with less buttons.

All my son wants for Christmas is a Wii. Price is right, but getting one is going to be a nightmare. I'll be in line tomorrow.

Aww, that's really cool you're going to wait for it! I was looking for one at Costco today, but I couldn't find one.

Oh, well since "tomorow" is now "today, how did it go? Did you get mobbed and run over like some of the people waiting for the PS3?

Nintendo doesn't launch it's new Wii until Sunday, Nov. 19. Some stores will open at midnight Saturday night/Sunday morning to sell the limited stock .. others won't sell theirs til Sunday regular store hours. Not all CostCo's will have their Wii stock this Sunday. Check this site for Wii inventory in your area by zipcode. http://digg.com/gaming_news/WII_Targ...on_Google_Maps

Click on the area that says: Wii Target Inventories now on Google Maps! Then, you'll see the area to put in your zipcode. It gives inventories of the Wii for Target Stores, Best Buys, EB GAmes, GameStops, Toys R' Us, etc.
Good luck!

Depending...From what I understand, the Blue Ray DVD players are priced more than the system.
