OMGHi2U Nintendo Wii & Sony PS3 Thread

With the PS3 and Wii ready to launch in a matter of days. This would be a good thread to post what stores are having midnight launch events.

For the Wii. There will be a big event at the citywalk the night of november the 18th. There will be live entertainment and a countdown to the launch.

If anyone knows what local stores are selling these systems at midnight please post it up. I rather wait in line at a smaller location than hang around citywalk.

For the PS3 the circuit city in Torrance will sell the PS3 at midnight the night of the 16th.

I'm too busy playing Gears of War and Final Fantasy XII to care at the moment.

I want a Wii for Zelda and that's basically it. Nothing for the PS3 launch is really calling out to me.

Since I just got a 1080p TV, I'm kind of itching to get a PS3. I guess I can just show up someplace and if there's more than 3 people waiting, I'll just try another store.

I will if I can get my hands on one or two. I was offering $100.00 to my friends who would wait with me.

me and my buddy are camping at our local Target so when they open we will definatly be the first two to grab a Wii and a cop of Zelda. There are so many lauch titles for Wii. I think there will be like 60 games for the first 2 months. Trauma Center anyone?

Only game that looks too good to miss out on for PS3 is Metal Gear Solid mmm mm mm

Very cool... which one did you get? I'm thinking of moving my 40" CRT into another room when I move and use that for my old consoles and upgrade the TV in the living room to a big DLP or SXRD.

Speaking of trauma center, check this video out:

http://www.bitflicks.com/2006/09/28/...e-nintendo-ds/

Black: "The Wii has an interactive torture simulator, with scalpels and a device to electrocute people. Now that's innovation."
Boy: "Arrr***8230; come again?"
Black: "It's called ***8216;Trauma Center', a name which promises many delicious scenarios."

That sucks, man. I waited until the revised systems came out before I bought mine, only because the first batch had so many reported problems. No red rings of death... so far.
