Right now I have Final Fantasy III on preorder. It looks like a very good remake, and having no way to play the original FF III anymore (other than roms), it seems like a very worthy purchase. I saw videos of it and it's probably the best looking DS game I've seen yet.

Soon I might get to preorder Final Fantasy XII and some other games as well.

Well, I have a pre-order set on the Wii, so I guess I have a pre-order set on Wii Sports. ...

The only thing I have on pre-order is Final Fantasy XII, and that's only because of the collector's edition incentive. And I'll probably pre-order Portrait of Ruin a while ahead of its release just because I'm crazy about it and want to make absolutely sure I'll have my copy on day one.

The only thing I've ever pre-ordered was Wind Waker, and that's just because my life could never be considered complete without the Ocarina of Time Master Quest bonus disc.

I've pre-ordered Yoshi's Island DS.

I'd pre-order a Wii too, but I don't have enough money to buy the console at the moment. I'll probably pick up my Wii in March after I've saved some cash. =/

I had Destroy All Humans! 2 on preorder but it arrived this morning, so it's not anymore. :p Now I have Warhammer 40k: Dark Crusade and FFXII on preorder.

I need to preorder FFXII, will probably do that this weekend.

I DID preorder Disgaea 2 about half a year before it was released though. Because Nippon Ichi owns my soul.

Why on earth would anyone pre-order a PS3 when they know the first model is probably not going to work right?

I have Children of Mana on preorder. I would have FFXII CE too, but eb/gamestop's online store is crap and won't take my visa. Screw them, then.

.hack//GU special edition.

It comes with a Haseo Action Figure and the terminal disc. Totally worth the extra $10 as compared to the /xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gifty FFXII special edition.

Also Kawaii, I recommend that if you want to preorder Portrait of Ruin you do it soon rather than later. They have this bad ass insentive thing. Art book, CD and stuff. It sounds decent enough.

Only Phoenix Wright 2. This reminded me that there are a bunch of stuff I've been waiting to pre-order (because of, um, bankrupcy issues!).

As for consoles, I don't plan to get any of the "next gen" consoles till prices are lower. They are too expensive at launch. Although I do see myself breaking down and buying it when a game interests me enough.

Children of Mana, because I got pulled into it... It was one of those, when are you getting this game, and he says, oh you better pre-order it... so alas I did. I rarely if EVER pre-order everything, and as stated before I pre-ordered Wind Waker to get the special disk.

I can't preorder a Wii yet at EB Games (where I have a $145 gift card so I'm not doing it anywhere else) so I have two games preordered, but not the system. Kinda retarded.

Oh yeah, FFXII. 11 more days.

Edit: EB Games shall feel my wrath. "We left you a message." So I'm SOL on preordering the Wii because no such message ever existed and I lost my chance to preorder the Wii. So I'm stuck with two games and no system to play it on. Ridiculous.

I was planning to pre-order Rogue Galaxy, but its been pushed back to mid 07. I also was going to pre-order FFXII, but seeing as I have the game now, it dosent matter.

I dont really pre-order unless I really want the game day 1, I also like games to be delivered to my front door when I feel lazy.

The only game Im planning to pre-order is Bioshock.

I really doubt there will be as many problems as most people like to exaggerate about. And to answer your question, I would be perfectly willing, though I've likely missed the boat on it now. I still plan on getting one early on though. I'll likely just buy one at the Sony store and pay a little extra for one of those lovely warranties they like to peddle.

Anyway, the only thing I have pre-ordered right now is FFXII. I thought about pre-ordering Resistance: Fall of Man, but it'll probably be pretty easy to get when I can finally get my hands on a PS3.

FF XII CE

But since my budget has been tight lately, I probably won't be able to pick it up.

Phantasy Star Universe and 'Gyakuten Saiban 2' (Phoenix Wright 2) are on their way to me right now.

Phoenix Wright 2 (http://www.play-asia.com/SOap-23-83-1u6b-71-9g-49-en-84-j-70-1iyq.html) was released in Japan today, and like the previous Japanese release of this game it's at a discount price, and includes the full English text that will be in the US version of the game.

I preordered Gears of War at GameStop last week when I overheard the guy on duty talking about the fact that you can get it a few days before the official release by doing so. I guess they have some sort of special deal with Epic or Microsoft or something. Either way, I'm excited about that.

And I think I'll go preorder Portrait of Ruin after reading about all the special stuff included in the package. Far too good a deal to pass up.

EB/Gamestop hates my foreign credit card, so I can't order most things from them anymore. It sucks. I wanted to get PSU from them as well as the castlevania thing to get the extras, but no luck. Oh well.

I just wanted to give you a heads up on that pre-order release date. The game will be out on the 7th of Nov if you pre-ordered, and if you didn't, the game will come on the 12th.
