I don't think anyone really knows. Gamestop is supposed to be reserving them within the next few weeks.

Few weeks? We only have a month and a couple weeks left. Luckily I already put my order in with my connect for a Ps3 and a Wii.

If you already ordered it then why do you care if anywhere is preordering them?

"The PS3 hits store shelves on Nov. 17, and Sony has promised between 1 million and 1.2 million PS3s in the U.S. by the end of the year.

The Nintendo Wii follows two days later and is expected to be in greater supply than the PS3.

But sellouts of both consoles this year are virtually guaranteed.

MONA REEDER/DMN
Josh Walker of Akron, Ohio, tried out some of Nintendo’s new games during the GameStop sales conference on Saturday. The games will be released later this year.

As a result, GameStop has not yet decided when, or even if, it will offer pre-orders for the new systems"

sorry bout the news you guys

Because I don't like to use my connects unless I really have to. And anyway, I would rather have the guy get me a Ps3 instead of a Wii which I can most likely get on my own.
