    I may just wait till after Thanksgiving or Christmas. I can see a lot of the rush to get these as gifts. I'm good with waiting till January if need be.

    I'll wait too. No way I'm paying anything above msrp.

    I thought about it earlier... but there were rumblings that this was LE. I know a guy who works at Target who said they werent getting any more, and a few people in forums who said they heard the second shipment would be smaller and it would be the last of them. I thought about getting an ebay one while everyone still thinks they have a chance on Amazon.

    But Nintendo came out today and basically said they are going to make enough to go around.

    I can wait a few weeks. Some of these games have been out for like 1,600 weeks

    Just scored one a few minutes ago on Best Buy Canada's website. They must of dropped some more. After going back only 2 were left in stock. Keep checking out big outlet online store. A few F5's & I was able to score one. Free shipping but HST charge from Best Buy. D'oh!!!

    Many are going up on Amazon USA & CDN @ 5pm EST. Good luck to all. :)

    You're lame. Get a real job so you don't have to sell items minutes after they're onsale.

    This thing is crazy. Hoping the toys r us order goes through for the 1st week of december.

    I dont get the advantage of them doing this. It basically just frustrates consumers and gets scalpers paid

    It makes absolutely no sense. I will, but I almost don't want to buy it out of spite.
