im accually in a bind now when it comes with those preorders... Im supposed to be moving across the country from AZ to NY in a couple of months... Im not positive when or if i will be doing it but if it were to happen it would be this fall... Which is dead in the middle of when the PS3 and the Wii are supposed to come out... I did consider doing reserves both here and NY, but i want to do multiple reserves of both (so i can sell them on ebay for profit) and i dont have the much cash on me to do that many reserves... Sucks to be me i guess

I dont know, i said id be pre-ordering mine but the thing is that i might wait until all the problems in the early launch are fixed and that they offer more colors.

For some odd reason I've been wanting to pre-order the Wii. I don't know why but it seems like something I would enjoy.

DO NOT TRUST FYE RESERVES.... Sorry to put that in caps but its the truth... FYE's "Reserves" arent exactly reserves... I mean you reserve it, but that doesnt mean that you will get it on release date... Some places MAY (emphasis may) get it on release date but only in very small amounts (most likely 5 'Basic' Systems and 5 'Full' Systems for the PS3 and probally 5-10 Wii's), and it will be a first come first serve basis.... Doesnt matter when or how much you reserved it, if your not there first then you will have to wait till 2nd shipment or 3rd or 4th (and again shipments are very very small) to get yours... Theres no guarantee what so ever...The only guarantee is that you will get yours, it may take a month or 2 but you will get it...

After the Xbox360 fiasco i would be carefull of places like FYE... Best chance is to go to a place like Toys R Us or Kay B Toys... You may have to get the bundles (meaning the full system and 3 games) but you will be guaranteed a system on release day... Not only that it wont be on a first come first serve basis and you can come in at anytime to pick it up... At least thats what Seph1215 did at 360 release... *waiting for seph1215 to back me up on this*

btw i intend to reserve a couple of PS3's

I've pre-ordered a PS3 online, with the intention of waiting til TGS to see if it impresses me. I didn't care about 360 after E3 05, but come launch things were very different but I could no longer pre-order. It's easier to cancel a pre-order than find one last minute.
