I believe only if your PS4 games were purchased digitally. So the pre-order thing was NUTS. Basically Sony said preorders would be today… nope retailers started last night and a lot of places: Walmart, Target, Best Buy are showing sold out as of today (Amazon is showing unavailable). Of course they may get extra ‘waves’ of preorders, but at this point only Sony is really left. ---

I have resigned myself to not getting one until next year sometime. If I happen to see one on presale I’ll get it but there are too many sharks out there that are using bots to buy them all up. ---

It is a bit strange that a lot of sellers didn’t consider bots. I think Sony is selling directly from its website to select people who got emails - and then if any left after that opening sales up? But Sony’s website has multiple CAPTCHAs to prevent that sort of thing. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/playstation-5/855489.md?page=2)
