nope.. i tried last half of last year and i gave up.. they have daily releases in which you will be fighting the whole country for like 5 units and shit.... super annoying. I been trying to get both of those and no luck.. I refuses to pay for a membership to any of these stores JUST for the CHANCE to get buy a unit. capitalism at its worst.

Ill wait even it its years before i pay over retail price or for a stupid ass bundle i dont need.

There are or were chip shortages.. but now they are just using that excuse to keep prices high and sell you shit you dont need with the units.

I was finally able to order the PS5 from Walmart last week. It should be here tomorrow, hopefully. I signed up for the Walmart plus service to get first look options. As soon as the suckers gets here, I am cancelling that service.

I got 2, a digital and disc ps5. I suggest following wario64 on Twitter, he posts about 30 minutes before they go live. Thru his posts, I was able to get both of mine from bestbuy. A friend got hers thru target, beware target will drop early AM, like 2/3am. Of course these are online purchase options.

If you want in store options, I see xbox series S on store shelves alot, so you may find one at a random store visit. Also best buy and gamestop have been doing in store sales, some have bundles, some are just the consoles.

If you go in-store purchase, be prepared to by a bundle, get to the store about a day to a day and a half early, and be ready to camp out.

Hope this helps
Good luck

It's hard to get a PS5 without getting a bundle or paying extra. I been trying to get a second one for months cuz we can't just have one system in the house with 4 gamers. I ended getting the Xbox series S to hold us over. The Walmarts in Tampa seem to always have Xboxes S and X

I saw you could get the new Xbox thru Microsoft in a bundle type deal with their game pass service

You pay like 50 or 60 dollars a month and that got you the system and game pass. I don't know if they're still running that special but I will be looking into it in a few months

PlayStation sent me an email a few months ago with a link and a day. I clicked, and got one. :dunno:
Kids love it, friends want to come play on it but that ain’t happening.

Are they still sending out invites to buy?

I understand the frustration

The main ps5 thread lead me to the registration link directly through Sony

I'm just waiting on that

I have no hope

But if I get it before Christmas of this year I'll consider it a win

I just cannot pay over retail for this

I refuse.

Especially when I'm still confused which version I'm supposed to get.

How long did you wait for the email?

This is what I did. It will be a cold day in hell before I pay some inflated price for a game console. I was resigned to just waiting for the PS 8 or 9 to come out, but you can actually go to sony's website and register to buy a PS5.

They tell you when you register; " one per household and you'll know its time when we get back to you"... it took about 6 weeks before I got my invite- they sent a special link that took me to the place to purchase. I put some friends up on it and it took them 2-3 weeks.

the link on Sony's site to register comes and goes, it's up sometimes, then goes down for a while. ( likely as their supply increases or decreases) Just google something like "register to buy ps5 from sony" and you shouldn't have trouble finding it.

I don’t even remember registering. I thought they were just sending them to psp subscribers. I guess I just got lucky.

looks like they still do it
