    Not next gen, but whatever.
    Love the trend of SNES era remasters, praying for the Quintet trilogy (Soul Blazer, Illusion of Time, Terranigma) to be next.

    I’m not a scalper I’m an opportunist. It’s not like I’m out here selling toilet paper or hand sanitizer. The console will be easily attainable in spring, just wait. I bought plenty 3 months ago when preorders went out. If you didn’t get one back then oh well. Amazon was up for a good 20 minutes. Target over 30 minutes

    Got it! Worked from home just to sign for it too. Watched him sit in his truck for like 15min before walking the package up too. I was ready to run out there with no pants or shoes on! Didn't want to get @Rodman23 'd

    Wonder if part of the "Excitement" is the hunt for one? After trying on pre-order day and launch day a mid-night, probably taking only about 20 mins total looking for one, I was basically handed one by GameStop via email. I'm happy to have a XBX, but I wouldn't die without one and could easily waited til next year. I'm reading about these guys spending DAYS trying to find one online or camping out and when they get one, they are on Cloud 9. Or you have the people still looking and they are devastated and are continuing SPENDING hours and days in search of.

    Yeah, it's the hunt. There are no must-play games and it's still buggy.

    Bugs in-game and in-hardware for both systems (mostly software).


    Yeah...MS offers a 3-year warranty for $50 on the XBX no matter where you buy it from. I purchased it because I remember my launch XB1 had an issue...which was repaired under normal warranty...and I added the extended just in case. MS' warranty is CHEAP compared to retailers. Sony doesn't offer a direct extended warranty on the PS5 (you have to buy thru whatever retailer).

    I downloaded some games from PS4 to PS5 via cloud library. Everything went through fine EXCEPT - I do not have my controller and game settings anymore. They've been set to default. Any ideas how to migrate those without doing so manually? And who else here has PS5 right now?

    Apparently Sony Direct had some more pop up this afternoon. I had the tab open but was working and missed out. This was a little before 3pm (Pacific).

    Not sure about that, did you also download your save files? Either the settings are stored there or you'll have to set everything manually again.

    How do I download the save files, via Wifi network instead of over PSN cloud?

    That's how I got mine. I hopped into the queue today but didn't even bother sticking around. If I did manage another one I'd offer it here at cost.

    Its actually a very reasonable method of scoring one. Im a fan of that strategy.

    You can find your PSN cloud saves in the console settings, there's a category named "application saved data management".

    You'll see submenus for locally and cloud-saved files and can just download from the cloud on there. If the save files aren't up to date (it shows when the cloud was last updated), you can go back to your PS4 and update the cloud data first.
