Will this console be exempt from the tariffs, like the iPhone is?

No, video game consoles are not exempt.

I don't think it's clear that the iPhone is exempt either. There's been ummmm... mixed messages.

US Preorders do open tonignt - most places at 12 AM Eastern Time (I almost forgot that as I think of midnight as 12 no matter what). Good luck to those looking to score one!

How'd you do? I got in the Walmart queue and didn't snag one until 47 minutes later. Unlike Target & Best Buy, their site was solid as a rock - you just had to be patient.

I got a bundled one through Target and then sat on the Best Buy queue for a buddy to no success on my end but he got through around 1:10 AM EST for a bundle.

Target applied a $20 off circle coupon somehow, I’ll take the savings anywhere I can get with this!

Yeah, see, I tried Target and was even able to check out - but something was up with their site and it wasn't working. It even hit my credit card, but they declined the charge due to the suspicious activity coming off the Target servers. I honestly never could have believed it would take an hour or more, but all the info was saying to stick it out. Walmart never blinked from the moment I entered the queue - it just took a while. Good on them!

I was able to get two from Walmart. We tried Target and Best Buy, but those sites did not work.
