GCW posted this on original GCW Zero thread, reply #1467:

Estimated time till I get first batch of 50 to 75 is Oct 11th, 2012 to be followed by 100 by 25th of October, 2012 this is just estimated and could be quicker. I will be shipping them out first ordered to last ordered style so it will go by when you ordered the console.

I know he didnt specify a shipping date, but remember, units arrive on the 11th and he still has to flash units with OD/games/emulators.  The fact that he he and a few others will be at Grassroots Gaming Expo Oct 12-14, means. That flashing wont begin until the week after the Expo.  So im guessing shipping wont occur until week of Oct 22-26.  Thats just my guess.

Actually, if it arrives before xmas that's perfect for me! It'd make it like a xmas present to myself! Haha

But ya, i'm guessing they'll arrive at our doorsteps around mid november, no biggie!

To me, it'd be awesome to get it around xmas, and it would be easier to justify the cost of yet another handheld because it'd be an xmas present to myself hahahahaha

Waiting for this has been almost as excrutiating as the wait for season 3 of MLP FiM (they originally said Sept. 25, now they're saying Novemeber). Now it almost seems like a race as to which we'll get first... If it's the GCW, I guess I can play some Pony Fantasy 6 while I wait for season 3. 8)

OOC why would you be loitering outside of a Worst Buy on 11/17?

[EDIT]
IIRC Jay's original update said that he expected some 10-15th and would start shipping them randomly(IIRC), so... I'd expect some to start just maybe showing up this week or weekend if in US and shipped USPS as via USPS it'll be 2d anywhere east of the Rockies and 3d to the left coast...

Longer for Alaska/Hawaii/PR/territories/possessions of course(obviously)...  I'd expect 2w min for Canadians by mail(unless they get a diff shipment) and hwo knows how long for Europe/elsewhere...

(BTW: USPS SUCKS at updating tracking #s... so don't rely on them IF he ships that way and we get them... mine mostly go shipped/out for delivery... but they still do a damned well better job than the generic commercial guys wrt speed and package condition... IMNHE...)

Sounds like a midnight launch line. I have not done that in years. Getting to old to wait in the cold.  :D

You n me both. Actually any lineup for that matter haha. Sign me up for online ordering of anything ever, I'd much rather wait and pay for shipping than wait in a line :)

Yeah, I'm probably too old for it, but I haven't done a midnight release since psp 1000, some of my friends from the heartless used video game store I used to work at when I was a kid are going to do it too.
