So what's the word now folks...? Most GameStops have these in stock? I can't check my local store because my workplace blocks the GS website. :evil:

Shipment at my GS was supposed to arrive this morning. Will call in after lunch to check.

Tried to find this on the way home from work. None at GameStop or Wal-Mart. Guy at the local retro game shop said he had to "blow some dudes from Nintendo" to get three copies which sold out in an hour. I can't find this thing!

No.

Putting Nintendo's b.s. digital distribution method aside, even if you don't like the game you can still recoup the money selling a physical version. 3DS digital versions just are not worth it at this point... unless they drastically cut the price and actually pass savings on to the consumer.

I'm sure soon there will be plenty of copies to go around and this will all be forgotten. In the grand scheme of things, a week or two's delay for a game makes no difference. Just pretend all the copies were put in a giant box by Nintendo and accidentally got shipped to retailers by Media Mail instead of Priority.

I got my shipping notification this morning, and I'm hoping that Ontrac will deliver to my house in the morning, before I have to catch my flight. I'd originally planned to bring it to play on the plane.

Picked up my preorder from GS after work. Supposedly they didn't get enough to fill preorders. I called in earlier asking if they arrived and he sat aside a copy for me.

Artbook is nice, reminds of the xenoblade book.

Well, it looks like I finally got my game. I also got the bonus booklet from GameStop. :D

The worker there told me that there was still a delay on the 3ds consoles.
