Well, according to the local TRU, Nintendo has delayed Shadows of the
Empire until this Thursday, the 5th. Anyone else heard this?

Now I've got to find something else to do tonight,
Kevin

Well by the time you read this it is too late but maybe you can catch some of the
last few minutes of WWF MONDAY NIGHT RAWWWWWW the best wrestling fed in the
world...I feel the same way you do I wish Star Wars was out right now to but my
local Best Buy doesn't have it...Later, Joe Koerner

Well, I called my TRU today and they said they weren't expecting this game
until Next Year... I just laughed at the girl and hung up. Apparently my
TRU is still behind the times.

Really? I thought TRU wasn't planning on selling the title until the 5th
anyway. So says my pre-sell ticket. Hmmm.

I bought Star Wars & Crusin' today (the 3rd) at Kay Bee in New Jersey,
so they did come out.

After pestering my TRU for two days (I prebooked WaveRace and they sold
my copy AARGH!!!), they told me today I can pick up my copy of SOTE
between 2 and 3 this afternoon (the 3rd). WAHHOOOOOOO!!!!
Of course, I have to be at work at 3, but hey, I can drool over the box
all day :)

I called talked to people at a couple of stores who got it in, but
only enough to fufill a part of the reserved copies. It is scarce, but
it is out. Hopefully December 5 is when the second shipping is...well I
can hope.

I got Shadows of the Emprie at Toys R Us in San Antonio! It's the bomb!
I called Toys R Us around nine p.m. and they said that they had just got
it in. Good luck in finding yours if you didn't reserve your copy cause
they weren't giving any out to anyone without a slip!

My TRU and alot of others have them in since yesterday 12/3 and
dont have enough to cover all their pre-sales for SOTE . I ran down
today on my lunch break and got mine, suggest you do same asap cause
even though you have a pre-order its still first come first serve
among all the pre-orders...dont wait for them to call you !
