Buyers remorse (pre order)

[Shark]

I'm waffling on peripherals. Seems overkill and I'm getting influenced by potentially scarce availability.

Nah. I only put 50 bucks down at Gamestop and if they have that trade offer going ill get 175 for my PS4 Slim and 125 for my Switch Lite (I also have a normal switch no nothing lost). That cover pretty much the entire PS5.

My only worry right now is that Best Buy messes up the store pick up for the Series X and Walmart the delivery for PS5. I was lucky enough to get backup with Amazon, but at some point I will have to let go and commit it to a friend.

I didn't wreck my wallet at all since I planned to also get a 3080.I have been waiting for this all year. I now need to get a CX 65" and a Sonos Arc.

I'm great for now. A Series X and my aging gaming PC will tie me over for a while. Once the PS5 has a critical mass of exclusives mid-gen I'll pick it up too.

Spending $300 on a Series S didn't exactly break the bank. Now if I drop $1000 on a TV I may feel a little more guilty lol.

I don't regret if I preorder.

With Monster Hunter Rise I am spending at least a couple hundred. Not counting the plushies I got earlier in the year c; we shall see

I did for a couple days because I ended up purchasing three Series X consoles and a Series S. Ended up convincing some friends to purchase two of the Xs and I decided to use the X in the living room and the S as a coop console/bedroom console. I spent 700 bucks on a stupid PS5 bundle but its stuff I would have gotten anyways.

Wrong thread

Still have not been able to get either. Will probably be stuck waiting till after February to find either. Not a big deal as I do not play much due to hand pain but I wanted one of the 2 just to have on launch day.

Yeah, I spent over a $1,000 in preorders (Oculus Quest 2 & Accessories, Xbox Series X and 3 years of GamePass Ultimate) meanwhile we are in the middle of a living room redo and still need to buy furniture. I feel kind of like a bum having my family sit on an uncomfortable futon while I'm over here buying gadget. My wife did see how excited I was over the quest and the new generation of systems and gave me her blessing but I do feel a bit irresponsible. On the other hand life is short, I do work hard and I economize in many other areas (i.e. I've driven the same tiny hatchback for 13 years, I never buy full price games, I do the grocery shopping and my goal every week is to feed a family of 4 on less than $100 a week, etc.).
