Just called, the SKU just appeared this morning. They have some Pro controllers allocations left too. I'm all set

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.

I found a nice deal on an external Samsung T3 SSD from NewEgg Canada on Ebay - this drive usually goes for about $270 - $300, but I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for:

Same. I tried two EB Games, and Best Buy. They all had none in stock, and couldn't tell me when they'd get more in.

Thank you SO MUCH! Went down there and snagged one. My EB only got seven, so feel pretty lucky. Thanks again!

Has best buy still not put the pro controller on sale? Would rather drop my amazon pre-order and get it there....assuming I keep the preorder which I'm even undecided about that.

Going to try my local mom&pop shop.
EDIT: mom&pop shop had two in stock, picking it up tonight.
Just preordered mine, as well as traded in Mario Kart 8 toward MK8D.
Also in regards to Yakuza 0, I imagine it is rare. The BB I work at never got any copies.

I've tried a few eb's and best buys with no luck either.
It's not surprising Sega had a limited print run for this game seeing as the last few were digital only, but didn't expect it to be this scarce only a week after release.
I didn't want to do digital bit it may be the only option now.

Check your local shops, mine only had two in stock and they were kind enough to set one aside for me.
Might suck paying full price and not getting %20 off with Prime but, hey, it's Yakuza
Went to EB for the Zelda SE and it's not in their system yet. Called another one with the same result. Both stores got an email from corporate about it. I got them to take my info down so they can call me when the info goes up.
I'll be so salty if I miss out on this.
Thanks for the heads up, Fuzzy.
Edit: One of the stores just called me. Heading there now...

You know, the SE looks pretty cool and all, but I can't justify the extra $40 for the carrying case, CD, and a coin and map I'll never use.
What appeal does it have to some of you guys who want it?

Just got one in Vancouver. Dude said he had less than 20, and more than one went away while I was there.

Will changing the payment method on my BestBuy.ca Switch pre order mess with my order?
I have an in-store Toys R Us pre order but it's super sketchy, so I pre ordered a Switch from BB just in case (since I can easily return my console in store if TRU pulls through) but my card probably couldn't handle two Switches...

Shouldn't.

I love Zelda and there are no more master editions.
I'm just in, phone works. Just show them and you'll get your wristband, then head down the hall to the waiting room.
I want that case, but there was no way in hell I was gonna get the Master Edition, as I don't want the statue.

Fair enough. The case is pretty cool, so good luck to you guys in getting one
I just bought it online from EBgames, am I missing something?
I mean, for those who wants a physical copy, it's not an option?
I like the coin I guess. I feel like the case is too gaudy for me, I most likely won't use it. The map and cd is ok I guess, I mean I have a japanese se.

Yeah I just ordered from amazon canada for prime pricing, and its coming back in stock in 2 weeks. No biggie. Otherwise it looks like EB online is the way to go.
If you are willing to spend full price ($92-$95 all in depending on your province), amazon.COM is around $70 USD shipped right away.
Not rare, but first run looks sold out some places.

Meanwhile on Rogers I used to get 30-40mbps and now get 10-15. Fuck Rogers.
Yeah I got it for 91$, it's pricey but I really wanted a physical copy, plus Yakuza content wise is stellar so I don't mind too much paying that price.
Did the Switch trade in thing for games I don't care about
Link Between Worlds - 26
Mario Kart 7 - 22
Mario Kart 8 - 50
Twilight Princess HD - 54
Super Mario 3D World - 18
Hyrule Warriors - 48
Scribblenauts Unlimited - 12
7 games for 230. Had to put it all on accessories because they ran out of MK8 and Breath of the Wild somehow, still had the Pro Controller up though.

They ran out of regular games? Ive never once seen them do that. Mario Kart isn't out for months

Just came from Yorkdale EBGames. As of 1 hour ago they are actively taking Pro Controller pre-orders. Yes. Now what do I do with my Amazon order?...
Two is better than one...

I'm a sucker for the Zelda series and I couldn't resist. On top of that, I really like the case that's included. It's pricey, yes, but I guess I'm willing to make exceptions for Zelda.

The EB I went to this morning still had a few pre-orders left for the Pro Controller, but they said that they were moving quickly. I figured I'd grab one while I could. They didn't tell me how many they were getting, but I was given the impression that it wasn't many.
Pretty much. They are masters of it.

Its more about the trade in deal then anything else.
Thank you! By the time I got there their allotment was all snagged up but I was able to preorder a Master Edition. I guess someone swapped their sku. I also snagged a pro controller preorder. I'm all set for launch

I would pay good money to get a second NES controller right about now. It's baffling.
Wow, that's awesome.Thank you! By the time I got there their allotment was all snagged up but I was able to preorder a Master Edition. I guess someone swapped their sku. I also snagged a pro controller preorder. I'm all set for launch
False alarm, apparently we did get an upgrade on our internet, I just wasn't aware of it xD.
Finally, some decent speeds.

It's a terrible game. I have every CoD ever, hardcore CoD guy, put in days on MO and I can tell you it is terrible. The SP is unique, I will give it that, but it has no depth and is a boring story. I would not get it. Just my opinon, tons of news games coming out here more worth your cash.
