Ok wtf, I thought this game was being released in US and Canada on the 22nd! And it is the 22nd! I went to look after school, and it's not there! But as I was leaving I saw that they had some toys there (didnt look too close) When is this game out in Canada?!!?!

**EDIT**

Just went back today at lunch... and of course... no tmnt game there :x Any other canadians find it yet?

I was confused about this too... A friend of mine said that it usually takes a day or two longer for the games to get here up north, though. Kinda like comics take another day or so.

I'd check back on Thursday.

Place I'm getting it at was shipped it today, so I can pick it up tomorrow. Sometimes Canada gets games a day or two later, but it's never that long.

This is how it works. Videogames almost ALWAYS hit here the same time as the States, but it usually has to do with where you look. Zellers and Wal-Mart are least likely to have a new release game out on the first day unless it's a huge one. (Your GTA's, Mario's etc.) Where the games get to first are videogame outlets like EB Games. In this case it was neither as the shipments were delayed in some way. Tomorrow they are supposed to be out though.

I got TMNT for GBA and GCN today. I got mine at an independant dealer, and I know Wal-Mart doesn't have it. Try an EB store.

Gah.

I went to my local EB tonight to see if the game was in yet. And it was! Except they were sold out of copies for the GameCube. :x

There was one PS2 copy left, and a few X-Blecch copies. They also had a few for the GBA, which I was sorely tempted to get, but I want to get my hands on the 'Cube version first.

I went to check Future Shop and Superstore afterwards, and neither had anything out.

Bollocks to Thursday night.

By sheer luck, we had to go to the mall tonight :D Fate was with me tonight, as everything was perfect... EB was on the way to the store my dad had to go to, then when coming back, I went into EB, saw at least 20 copies of the ps2 version in there, and bought it :) So see yall tomorrow lol :evilgrin:

yeah i've had the game reserved and paid for about 2 weeks now. Today(thursday) is when it was supposed to come out. I had AAAALLLL day to get to the mall but my girlfriend kept delaying and stalling, and inevitably, it was closed by the time it was good for her. :evil:

S'okay though, i'll pick it up tomarrow. Kinda of a bummer though...

It's so true!! So instead if you can't wait you have to pay the mass amount extra to cover states exchange rate. :dead: I'm not that rich!!
