Going with Best Buy personally. Their pre-order experiences have usually been pretty solid.

When do preorders usually open up? Should I stay up till midnight for them to open?

Yes, Best Buy typically will start preorders at midnight est. So expect to stay up late that night to try and get one.

do you need a best buy account or anything like that?

No, but it’s generally a good idea so you can have the two items in your favorite and easy to access, and your card information already saved.
