I don't know when this started, but I first saw it Yesterday (Sunday, 7/29)

They have begun preorders on Brawl (And Super Mario Galaxy) at Gamestop stores, at least the ones in the Dallas/Fort Worth TX area. So if you haven't already, head over to your local Gamestop/EB Games and drop 5 bucks to gaurentee your copy/'s this holiday season. I know I sure as hell won't be fighting through mobs this December lookin' for a Turboman.

... >.> +50 DKP to anyone who knows/got the Turboman/December refrence.

Another +90 DKP to anyone who is nerdy enough to know what DKP is >.> <.<

Lol, you beat me to it :p

DKP = dragon kill points

Where I'm from, there's never a huge line for anything video game related, lol. Just enter any shop when the game's shipped to them and you will find it....there's never a need to preorder :(

Consider yourself lucky.

I'm from the DFW area... There are lines for everything. Espically video games.

When I was waitin in lline for the Wii, and it finally opened up... I got shoved down and punched for a nunchuk I was holding... It was brutal..just like in Jingle All the Way XD It was by a like, 40 year old guy who was collecting nunchuks for his kiddos.

There has already been threads like this and I believe they were closed. This may be closed, too. Anyway, I haven't pre-ordered yet, but I'll try this week.

I'm assuming none of you guys have this magical store called Best Buy near you. Am I correct? Gamestop doesn't hold popular items. If 50 people preordered something and only 30 of them showed up at the store opening and the Gamestop got 50 copies of the game, 20 people would be very disappointed for showing up later that day when their copy was sold to someone else.

Look, once one person has told the thread creator that there's already been numerous threads like it created, we don't need a million people all saying the same thing. We just need one person, or we could even ignore it until a mod comes along and locks it up.

Just ignore duplicate threads, there's no reason this should have gotten to 20 posts.

This is breaking news dude.

Infact, I've seen 2 other threads a week or two ago announcing this.
You can also pre-order at EB GAMES btw.

I probably shouldn't.

I won't have a Wii before Christmas, and I don't want to be stuck with a game before I have the console for it. Especially not a game that I want to play so bad as this one. That'd be a terrible idea. XD

Would Zelda and Pokémon be considered to be popular items? Because I reserved them...at GameStop. I picked up Pokémon at their special 9am opening and I walked in to get Zelda on launch day 2 or 3 hours after they opened. Mind you, this wasn't just Zelda launch day; it was Wii launch day. I don't think Brawl will be too different.
