Thanks for the emphasis  A) Yes, I was joking. B) Technically, it's already going to be 3 months + late by the time it hits these green shores. C) I'm gonna be at the beautiful German/Swiss border for 2 weeks! I'm sure I'll manage |

I know I'm definitely gonna get it on that date... and nothing's gonna stop me, or else!  Sqrt2 runs for his life though the city streets and alleys, trying to get to the game store as fast as possible . . . No one knew how many copies of SSBB were left! And it was first in first serve! And then after much running he finally got there . . . And there was a giant line in front of him. Alternate (worse) ending. Sqrt2 gets hit by a Spiny Shell just before he gets the the game store. I have to admit those didn't turn out as funny as I thought they would be. |

You should have run with the spiny shell idea a bit more. It's all about delivery and timing |

I have to admit those didn't turn out as funny as I thought they would be. Actually, I found those to be hilarious, especially the second one!  I'm actually thinking of pre-ordering the game, just so that the first one doesn't become a reality. |

Yeah, you might wanna get on that. I pre-ordered 3 days after the release date was announced (which is usually when the shops start taking pre-orders) and I was a little perturbed by the number they wrote on my card Let's just say it was 3-digits long and began with a 6. Unless they've changed their pre-order structure since I worked there... that's just my place in the queue of people waiting for the game... |

The release date in Australia has just been confirmed, it's June 26th.
(That's why I changed the name of the thread).

Through the POWER OF TIMEZONES we get all worldwide releases first. Because we're awesome.

Timezones, not Warpzones And that's a good point! If it's released on the 26th in Aus, and 27th in Europe, technically you get it more than 24 hours before us... probably closer to 36. Imagine how good you could get at Smash in 36 hours!! |

(well technically, it was my mum who did it for me, but...) Fry, your number wouldn't happen to be 666, by any chance?  Anyway, apparently I wasn't given a number, so I guess that I'll be able to walk down the high street and bag a copy,just like that. |
