You get used to it, I do wish they offered black plate replacements though.
Hey JinCA, been a long time... Hope you are doing well

O,h, I can get use to almost anything after the first Xbox, and Fat PS3 lol. = (Funny, I look back at the Fat PS3 as a nice looking console now :).. It's just that I'm not a fan of tall standing white consoles that will not fit in my entertainment center, and laying the PS5 down makes it even more ugly IMO. I also must say that it doesn't seem like it's designed to be laying down with how the heat vents are positioned along with it's overall asymmetrical design

Oh, and don't get me wrong.... The new Xbox isn't a looker either, especially that cheaper white speaker looking S one is just plain awful. The Series X is an overall better designed,, much smaller and more powerful console though.

Man, why is Microsoft so terrible with console names after the 360 though?

I don't mind the look of the PS5 but big meh on the white considering every other device is black in my center. I will say that the One X looks the best out of all of them. Just give me a black boring box.

Yea the most color I have is the blue and red on my switch. I do like the all black look. By the time I'm able to get a PS5 they'll probably have a black console anyway.
 
Pro tip:

Actually sell us some of these things!



I don't see how Sony can be making so much more money by being limited on PS5 systems to sell, the fact that they don't make much per system sold in the first place, and having few new PS5 titles to sell... I mean, isn't new game sales where they really make their money?

I call this more of a bluff to say... "Look how great the economy is doing!"
 
No word on the US yet either, but Amazon US hasn't gotten anything in at least a couple weeks as far as I can tell.

My bundle comes with an extra controller (which I can use to switch back and forth when batteries die), Spiderman Ultimate Edition (the PS5 game I've wanted the most), and NBA 2K21. Can't decide if I should just try to immediate sell NBA 2K21, or try it. I'm not much of a basketball fan these days, but I've heard it's a solid game.

Trade it in/sell it and get Godfall or Demon Souls?

I wanna play Godfall so bad. I know, it didn't get great reviews from gaming sites or gamers but I still want to play it. I like the look of it and the melee combat looks like fun. I don't care so much that the end-game is lacking if I can get a few dozen hours of fun then I'll be happy.

I'm not interested in paying for a bundle of shat I don't want to get a PS5. As time goes by I'm less and less anxious about acquiring a PS5. I'll wait until I can secure just the console.

Only keep it if you're going to play it for a while, not worth trying out IMO if you aren't into basketball games.

I tried for them at GameStop. The cheaper bundle always had the pre-order option but just said out of the stock right away. The more expensive one just said sold out or whatever. Might have just been late to seeing Wario's tweets though.

It's been several years since I've been to a Gamestop, do they buy back new games now? They used to only accept it at used value, and wouldn't take it if it's still shrink wrapped. I have a feeling they'll be douchey since this was part of a bundle regardless.

Up here in Canada , EBGames ( Gamestop Canadian equivalent ) has a trade in value for titles. Not sure how much it would be now you'd have to call and ask for the TIV and see if there are any differences between a new and opened copy.
