So the Valley Stream Walmart in Long Island has them in stock. I decided to check it out. It’s a complete **** show. I was the 3rd one there. The employees/manager etc refused to sell them. We did a barcode shelf inventory check and 19 came up . Manager refused to admit they had any in stock. Long story short after wasting 2 hours there from everyone telling us something different they called security on us. I sweet talked the manager this Jamaican ting and she started studdering. Me and the dudes (7 total of us) that refused to believe the employees, decided to give $50 each for them to cut the BS. But they still refused. Wild waste of time.

Yesterday I witnessed someone ask for a console at Wally World showing stock and they were told they were oos.... then the same employee lowered his voice and let the customer know he could sell him one but needed to know how much he was willing to spend. It was savage....
Anyhoo, Wally is a complete lottery. Web only compliance varies from store to store and from the informed to the ignorant. All you can do is continue to ask and maybe hit the lottery. This particular store did have a full PS5 display running without the dualsense, so the web order stuff should be expired soon. I would have taken a picture but I was in the PS Direct queue still trying to hit for my bro.
One of my local gamestops continues to tell me that I am third on their list but with their thirst for selling bundles - I don't expect to get a call before 2021.

Exactly.
Digital PS5 =
Disc PS5 =
Why do people prefer the disc honestly? Is it just because that’s what we are accustomed to or is it solely based on games already owned? The industry is going digital either way.
I pretty much just play Battlefield games on mine as I don’t really have a big collection. Also only have a couple of movies on blu-ray. We have kids so everything is digital. I’m honestly considering just going the digital edition route.

I dont know about significantly. psn black friday sale prices were mostly in line with physical copies some were cheaper than physical (control ultimate edition) some more expensive (nioh 2) but psn has deals every week. only time this argument applies is when its a bogo sale and new games are included

First reason is the Blu-Ray player for $100 & the option to be able to play disc's in general. Besides that I like to have physical copies of things that way I can collect/hold on to them for years to come. Same reason most of us in here have old consoles still or even old favorite disc games just because. I found and shared the OG Tenchu game from PS1 that I still held onto & prolly never get rid of...

Depends on the country but where I'm at, physical is cheaper.

If you are waiting for Target to be like Walmart and announce a formal time when they sell PS5's online for home delivery, i don't think that will happen much anymore, if it all.
I think when the employees are referring to online, they are restocking the inventory on Target.com/app at random times for in-store pickup/home delivery only.
I don't think they want people to continously camp and stalk the electronics department 24/7 during a pandemic.
My friend was stalking the app all last week and saw inventory restock at his local store this past Saturday & he was able to secure one.
So sales are definitely happening, it just probably wont occur how you would prefer.

I posted this in the old thread, but I chose the disc version for these reasons:
-I have backlog of games I still need to finish
-I don't want to be forced to pay PSN store prices. Its always full retail on new releases & they often don't have the standard version.
-When i finish my games, I share/swap with friends and or sell it. I don't have that option with digital.
-Downloading a game from disc will be MUCH faster than online.
-Stores will have better deals for physical copies. (EX: Target has B2G1 right now, i never see that type of offer on PSN)
-I still have the option for digital games as well.

Question: My kids have access to their uncles library. Will they be able to use his PS4 games and the PS5 upgrade them, or will I have to buy PS5 games because their uncle still has the PS4?

On the east coast we have snowstorms and hurricanes that will knock out cable/internet for hours sometimes days. I've had to pop in a few movies during those big storms.
