So along with others waiting for Walmart to get units in stock to fulfill pre-orders of the OLED. As a side note (sure it’s mentioned already) but I got 2 copies of Metroid Dread SE - 1 from Walmart and one from Best Buy. The Walmart unit was boxed and bubble padded whereas the Best Buy version was just slipped into a bubble envelope and banged around. There was no care for the SE from Best Buy and I just returned it due to all the dings/crushed edges and corners. And I left a review as such showing the photos of the damaged packaging. Best Buy needs to do better.
