Street Fighter is launching around Australia tomorrow, some stores even had it today. Just thought I'd point that out.

If I don't see it at any stores tomorrow I am going to headbutt you.

"New Control" Pikmin is $50. Not bad.
 
Why check so early?
I just rang my EB, they said head office have sent them an email saying to not sell SF4 just yet, but they will more than likely be sending another email this afternoon to give the go ahead to sell.

I only called them. I'll try again later then, could you post here if you're successful?
 
Indooroopilly EB in Brisbane are selling SFIV early. Told me to head back in at 11-11:30am when the shipment arrives. Figured I'd ask them while I took the partner to work and help her open.

JB Hi-Fi didn't have it.
 
EB Parramatta rang 30 mins ago, they are now selling. All EB's should be selling it by midday if they have stock.
Enjoy.
 
So does anyone know where I can get a SF4 stick or controller today? Are any stores stocking them?

I need to get SF4 today... but I'm seriously dreading the prospect of playing on that horrible 360 d-pad.

I just rang two, and they have their shipments NOW and are selling. Unfortunatly, my pre-order is at the store that doesn't have them yet :(

Is JB selling this yet as well? I really don't want to pay EB's $120 price.

Just do what I did, take two games in and get it for $40. I took in Soul Calibur and Virtua Fighter.

But that would involve going home first, I want to pick it up at lunch (brisbane city) :lol, will check shortly and report back.
 
I finished Pikmin 1 but not 2 so im waiting for that one >.<

Also, is that the best Wii deal out there? Most come with lame ass crap, accessories or some shovelware...

Also Kirby for 49 ^_^

Let me know how this goes, as I'm also in Brisbane.

I figure after work I'll check JB, Big W and Target to see who has it in stock/for the cheapest price.

Also, it absolutely blows about not being able to get a dedicated controller/stick with the game. Stupid country...

Just got back from EB Brisbane city (opposite main commonwealth bank) price matched jb and didn't even call, only 2 copies left

So what price are JB selling it for? 2 360 or PS3 copies?

Doesn't really matter... by the time I get there those copies are sure to be gone.

Hey guys, is Chrono Trigger out yet? I checked my local EB and GAME for it, but couldn't find it. Or is it still TBA in Aussie-land?

I bought it at JB last week for $59.


vook, I'll do it lol
 
Hey Nemesis, how are the hand cannons that come with HotD?

We already have 4 plastic light gun shells (2 perfect shots, the Wii zapper, and the one that came with Ghost Squad), and I'll almost certainly be getting the Bang Box, but I want to know how they compare to the other shells already available.

Wait is overkill out? I was just @ EB grabbing SF4 and the dude said it wasn't out?

I got mine from a normal retailer, not EB or GameTraders or anything.

Havent had a chance yet, still addicted to Street Fighter =P
 
The chance of that actually being true is 0%.



On a completely different note, did anyone just see Ricky Gervais on The 7:30 Report just now? It was sooooo awkward. I don't know if it was the way they edited it, but Kerry O Brien should never be allowed to interview anyone not involved in politics ever again. Gervais was giving gold, and getting NOTHING. It was classic.

Thanks for the heads up. It'll be on here in Qld in 20 minutes. Ricky Gervais is gold.
 
Who is the punk that bought Stranger's Wrath from the EB trade 2 get 1 free bin in Melbourne Central? I raced home to get 2 shit games, got back in 20 mins and it was gone.
