Iphone 4 Midnight Release??

Today i spoke with someone frm my local walmart nd they said they might have a midnight release. Can anyone confirm this?? And what are the chances of this happening??

Walmart is going to be an iffy place to go no Thursday. I just spoke with a manager at the local walmart. She told me:
1. Walmart will only have the 16GB model (concurs with other posts).
2. They will start sales at the normal cell phone dept opening time (8AM at this store - usually 8 or 9 at most stores that have the section).
I tend to believe this one since it was the manager (she even had the inventory sheet but wouldn't let me see how many she's getting) and the store has just done a remodel of its phone section.
Personally I'm starting to think its time to look more at the apple store. The balance of the rumors seem to be that they will get the most inventory but they will be the center of the 'storm' as well.

Midnight Release Website Problem

While it's not a major issue as to if I purchase from BB or a particular store I'm very curious if the midnight release checking site is broken or if it's lack of information that I'm missing.
I'm trying to use this http://www.bestbuy.com/site/misc/best-buy-gaming-events/pcmcat183100050001.c?id=pcmcat183100050001&t... link provided by the Press Release but when you search a local store it just brings you to the local store of your choosing and doesn't specifically state yes or no. Is there supposed to be a banner that says if they are doing an event or is the whole search part broken from any proper midnight lauch information?
This wouldn't be a major issue if the store actually had some form of speedy phone service. I spent 20 minutes on hold for supposedly two customers on the line ahead of me and had no indication of getting closer to the store employee. My local store has combined the customer service desk and front registers so essentially the former dedicated customer service rep is now a normal cashier most of the day and I'm curious if this will make all attempts at good customer service and or quick phone answers for a quick simple question. During the whole current GCU promo in which customer service was trying to find out the proper way of ringing up the promo for me had EVERY customer in the store stareing at her like she was satan because she was the 2nd cashier and was doing a good job trying to assist me but I could imagine some CS feeling pressured by the various eyes and maybe provide lower customer service to move the line along. Also, with the holidays coming I can imagine the annoyance of dealing with the holiday lines grabbing my pre-order that I'm there for to play at release and not saving it for a Christmas gift.
Solved!

Hey again Laronvas,
Believe it or not, but the listings on this page are appearing as intended. When searching for locations in your area, only stores that have confirmed midnight opening events should appear in the drop-down menu that appears. Just keep in mind that store exclusions are subject to change without notice and that you should always contact your local store for full details before attending any midnight opening event.
I hope this helps.

Halo 4 Midnight release

I was wondering if your stores are going to be launching Halo 4 at midnight and if so, are there any in Arizona?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Keep a lookout on Best Buy's Gaming Events webpage. It should probably update soon and show which stores will have a midnight release for halo 4. For now, you can cross reference which stores are having a midnight opening for medal of honor, forza, and assassins creed. If your store is haveing a midnight opening for these games then chances are they will for halo 4 too. But I make no promises!

Will there be a midnight release for Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword?

I was looking in the best buy ads and saw that there was no ad about Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword. I was wondering if anyone happens to know if there will be a midnight release for all of the stores, or just select stores. Thank you in advance.

Hello kbowman,
Welcome to the forum!
I looked into this and it does not look like we are doing a midnight release for Zelda. The game comes out on 11/20 so I recommend heading to the store when they open. I hope this helps!

When will the "new iPhone" be released?

When will the "new iPhone" be released? A.k.a iPhone 5, 5G, 5GS, 5S, whatever. And what about the "new iPod touch" a.k.a iPodTouch 5. Thanks in advance.

This is a Peer to Peer Forum. It is NOT a Peer to Apple Forum. Nobody here can answer your Question.
I should also note that Posting Rumors about Release Dates IS AGAINST THE RULES! JUST FYI!

Final Fantasy XIII - Midnight Release?

I have to admit, I fell out of the Final Fantasy series for a while, mainly because I bought an Xbox, and then a 360; so you can imagine how pumped I am to here that they are releasing it on 360. Strangely enough, however, I recently bought a PS3 so I pre-ordered the game on it. I can't wait for it to come out!
Does anyone know if Best Buy will be opening at midnight for it's release?

jmaxwell003,
I should have more information on this soon! I have checked with the business team to see what stores, if any would be having a midnight release.
I will post again when I have more information. Thanks for your patience!

Halo Reach Midnight Release

I read online that Best buy had inflatable energy swords but also the individual said there were free microsoft points and subscription to xbl. Is this true?

Hello,
The inflatable energy swords were a promotional item confirmed by Microsoft and Bungie representatives. I know of no other confirmed midnight release promotional items at this time. I would suggest stopping by our midnight release event in your area or asking if the local store managers will divulge this top secret information!

Midnight Release Schedule?

Is Best Buy hosting any midnight release events during the first quarter? I checked my stores events and it is not updated. Just wondering.
Thanks!

Hey jmaxwell003,
Thanks for your post about some midnight releases in Q1. Is there a title in particular that you're thinking about? I can see if I can dig up some information. Notable titles that come to mind are Mass Effect 3, Twisted Metal and Max Payne on console. A lot of times, that information isn't available until closer to release day so titles released later in the quarter might not have midnight releases set up.
Let me know!

Store Openings on West Coast for Midnight Release Events?

Hello,
Was last week's 9PM PST release for COD:AW an anomaly or is BB now doing midnight release based on 9PM PST/12PM EST schedule?
Basically I want to know if I'll be able to go get my pre-order of Assassins Creed Unity at my store in Culver City (which isn't participating in the midnight launch) since BB closes at 10PM PST or if I won't be able to get it until 11/11.
Thanks!

Hey henhowc,
Kst8no1 is correct here: last week's staggered midnight opening events were specific to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare due to its Day Zero promotion. There's always a possibility other developers may choose to follow suit the future though, so the best advice we can give would be to keep an eye on our midnight opening announcements on BestBuy.com for updates.
Thanks for your pre-ordering with us!

Midnight Release for BF3 but not MW3?

Just checked my local store events tab and it show a midnight release for Battlefield 3 but nothing for MW3...I would think if they are doing BF3 they surley would do MW3...for what its worth there was nothing on there for last nights Batman so must not have done it.
I would like to no as i preordered the MW3 Hardened Edition for in store pickup in hopes of midnight release but can go to wal-mart if i have too.,

Hey KKING,
They might not be doing a release for both of those titles as they pick which titles they want to stay open late for in advance. You could give them a call or double check on your next visit as it might not have been updated quite yet on their website given that MW3 is still 3 weeks out.

Modern Warfare 2 Midnight Release Question.

Alright so im planning to hit the Midnight Release of modern warfare 2.
I get off work at 12:00 am exactly and it takes me 30 minutes to get to the best buy.
How late will best buy be open for this? and will they have enough copies if im not able to make it?
If im not able to make it for the midnight release will they have copiers later on in the day?
I have not preordered, will that affect anything at all?
Thanks

they usually stay open for an hour for midnight release you dont have to have a preorder to get a game...they should have plenty of extra copies tonight and tomorrow

Why so few Midnight Releases?

I live in the central Texas area, San Marcos to be specific. Not a big town, but it is a big college town with a decent gaming commutinty. I originally pre- ordered all my games at gamestop, but long story short, I moved them all to best buy. I went to the Destiny midnight release and it was awesome. I was not doubting that with the launch of Halo MCC and AC Unity, that there would be another midnight release, but I double checked anyways. There is not a midnight release for my bestbuy. I was shocked to find this out. I checked which ones will be partcipating in the midnight release north and south of here and there is only 1 in San Antonio and 1 in Austin. That sounds very low to me.
Why are there so few of them in a big portion of Texas?What criteria are needed to be met to have a MIdnight Release?
Thanks,

Hi User272677,
While we cannot provide any specific details, know that locations participating in midnight opening events are determined by a number of factors, including geographical location and market size. Participating locations are also subject to change without notice, so we encourage customers to contact their preferred store for the latest information in these situations.
Thanks for taking the time to post!
