I got up at about 5:30 (launch day) and went to Target at about 7:30. They opened at 8:00 and I got mine then.
We got 3 of them altogether. I kept one, and my Mom and Dad sold the other two on ebay.
I hadn't saved up enoug money for any games, so I had to wait all day until I was finally able to go rent some. I was in SSOOO much pain, seeing my PS2 and not being able to play it.
