Monster Hunter Tri controller bundle in stores?

I was wondering if they were going to sell the MH3 bundle with the Classic Controller Pro in stores anywhere? With it being a week away, I would really like to get it on release day, but I just wanted to make sure before I dropped my money off at Amazon for the release day delivery.

Yeah, I know we;ll have it at GS, but I can't remember if it's street dated (Meaning we'll have it the exact day it releases) or if it's just releasing next Tues. If it is just releasing, we'll have it on Wed. in both bundled and unbundled form.

P.S.-If you haven't already tried it, GS is just giving away demos of the game to anyone who wants one without the need to pre-order it. If you do pre order it at GameStop though you get:

The Game

Special Edition (Black) Classic Controller Pro

$5 Nintendo Points Card

$5 additional dollars off of the game at time of pick up.

So it's a pretty decent deal with a pre-order for once.

Where did you hear this?

My store doesn't look like we'll be having a midnight for it, or it may have only been select stores as last night was our SC: Conviction midnight.

I just called all the GS in my area. All are out of the demo. Wish I had found out about it earlier.

Kind of off-topic, but does anyone want to get a Racketboy online session going? You can have four in your party.

Aw man, hopefully we get a second shipment or something when the game comes out. I'd mail you a copy, but the soonest I'll be out to the PO or work again is Thurs. & Fri. and by that point the demo would get to you after the game itself releases.

Yeah, it's what's been making me drool over getting the game for months. Too bad my money's all going towards bills and the bank for the next month or I'd be all over it myself.

i would love that. I've been kind of on the fence about getting the game because i hear it is only fun playing with people online.
