I got mines just a few min ago waited about 10hrs in line 4hrs at AT&T but they sold out, 10hrs being at the apple store, 22hrs combined on my feet which also included coming straight from work, and its finally in my hands.

Why did it take so long? How many people were at the Apple Store?

I am going to the apple store tommorrow. I already know they have stock.

I have two apple stores in my city.

resistance1006557d ago (Edited 6557d ago )

Tis alright for some, theres not one O2 or Apple shop in the UK which has stock at present.

It been harder trying to get these on day 1 than it was getting a Wii over here

Premonition6557d ago

It took so long because for like the first 2 hours the system was down in the store, and 2nd was because they were like letting 5 people at a time in and they had another line for just people who were getting other products and not the iphone, buttttttt some people tried to cheat the system and instead of getting a macbook or something they would ask for an iphone on the side and was sent to the back of the line lol, and there were tons of iphones there since my apple store is like the only one for miles and miles out and till about 10:30pm they still had plenty the only thing that held them back was the fact they closed at 11pm.

OldGamer6557d ago

Now that is pure fanboyism.

Premonition6556d ago

Not really, i just wanted to experience something like this for myself,and because life is short, and even though it was tough it was kinda cool.

Probably down to the high cost of gaming. Controllers and racing wheels can cost as much as consoles.

This is why there will always be competition in gaming. The possibilities to make huge profits is just too enticing.

Pokémon Go Championship Winner Title Revoked for ‘Unsportsmanlike Conduct’

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.

There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.

Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
