Will I be able to get to Best Buy at midnight, pick up my game and head home? Or do I have to wait in line or what?
If you’re the 49 parallel, bring a jacket and wear longjohns

depends on how many people in your area go to the release, if its alot then there will be a line.
Check if your best buy is doing it. Mine isn’t. 
in my area the gamestop is directly across the street from bestbuy. I always preorder from gamestop, but when you look at the lines i dont see why i dont move over. Bestbuy had (for skyrim for example) 5 people waiting outside while gamestop had maybe 200. Just guessing on the numbers, but i know the line was long and wrapped around the building, while bestbuy had 5 people. so yeah, depends on your area, but it seems most of the nerdcore go to gamestop/eb.
If you call im sure they can give you a good time you would need to be there.
Some places give you a number you can pick up at like 6pm or something so you dont have to wait in line.
Best bet would be to call your store and ask, to be honest you are probably going to have to wait.
You just went full nerd status.
Never go full nerd status.

I gotta take my hat off for going there, especially knowing how the Academy is about that ****.
My Best Buy is going to open at 11:00pm and let everyone in. Then, people will line up at the service desk and start purchasing the game. Everyone will have a copy in hand, but won’t be allowed to leave with it until midnight. At midnight, everyone will head home.
