It all worked out in the end. It is funny that you and I were talking on the Walmart.Com thread worried sick about our pre orders, and now here we are with our Wii U's on the truck for delivery this morning.


fuk u both

I swear i'm gonna have a heart attack before this day is over... just heard the truck rumble up in front of my building... This time it was the transit dropping one of my neighbors off. In other news, my apartment is getting quite clean... lol

Decided to call Fed Ex,they said the driver is historically in my area from 11 to 3 each day, so worst case senerio, i'm down to 2 and a half hours.... Running out of things to clean...

That's why I very much prefer going to the store and picking it up myself.


Yes and you end up paying more for things that way. I rather order online and save some money even if it means I may ha e to wait a day or two longer to get the item.

That's unfortunate for you. I've ordered loads of electronic items online including the majority of my games consoles (some from as far away as North America) as well all the iPhones and iPads I've owned over the last few years plus a couple of all in one printers and several computers amongst other things. I've never once had something get broken or damaged during shipment.

Well a lot of companies I order from use Yodel, cos they are cheaper, they are truly terrible, the delivery drivers are like one step away from amoebas, lmao

Everything I've ordered has come by FedEx, UPS or TNT. All have been reliable except for the rare delay in delivery.

The only reason I ordered online was that I orginally heard that they would not be shipping to stores at all at launch, that you had to have preordered. At that point, GameStops near me had already sold all their preorders, and WalMart was about the only option left. So rather than try to hunt one down and pay through the nose, I went walmart.com. There were lots of rumors in the days leading up to launch that they may not have enough to fill all the orders, but thankfully mine got filled. Now it's just waiting this last hour for it to show up. 1 more long LONG hour... lol. Got my Christmas tree set up and decorated though, so good stuff is getting done whilst I wait

I hate you all, tbh. Why do I get to wait 3 more days?

Just kidding. Enjoy the experience and play all day in my honor.
