Does anyone know when it will be available in some of the big box stores? Its conspicous absence from the ads has me wondering where I should buy it. My gamecrazy is getting it in tommorow but they're charging $40, which seems $5 to high.

It shipped today. Most stores should have it tomorrow, or Wednesday by the latest.

If you mean Best Buy or Circuit City type stores, they get games as late as Thursday

Isn't Wario Wario Touched going to be priced at 29.99 (like Super Mario 64 DS)? I hope so...

EB and GS have it at 35, while Twisted is at 30. Seems to me like Nintendo is trying to justify the DS/GBA gap.

I'd expect Wednesday (at least here in Canada) as per the email I received from Nintendo. In store 02/16.

Regardless of the negative threads, I can't wait.

Gamestop should have a crapload extra
We had one reserve, and the shipping log shows them sending us 24 overnight.

If your gamestop says they do not, then ask for the DM number.

Wouldn't most Gamestop/EBGames/Wal-Mart/etc. stores have them tomorrow? After all, that is the release date.

It stinks; I thought the game was coming out today, because it was listed as 2/14 on Nintendo's site. I didn't know they used ship dates.

Best Buy told me they'd get it in tomorrow at $34.99. Is the Gamers Gift card thing still going on? I'll have to do that, as GS and EB around here want $39.99 for it.

And why should they call the DM? Isn't it perfectly feasible that not all stores follow this pattern? We have 11 preordered and are getting 18. Are you instructing the 8th walk-in should report my clerk for legitimately being soldout? If they say they are soldout, go to another store instead of being a self-important jackass.

The only place I found it priced $29.99 was Sears.....everyone else had it higher.

Some stores intentionally don't sell any extras, such as mine.
If i'm there I sell it.

The clerk would not get in trouble if the store shows numbers of having been sold out (minus reservations) at the end of the day anyway. Unless your store is one of the ones that like to hold back extras in an effort to get people to reserve games.

Obviously, if it really appears the store is sold out, and/or you showed up to get the game really late in the day without a reserve, they may be really sold out. But if there is a stack of Warioware behind the counter that don't appeared to be reseved, its in my opinion that the person should perhaps investigate this further.
