I might wait for reviews to see if they think it's worth $60. You know they send review copies out before launch so you can see the reviews before launch? Oh. Well, I'll make sure I check Gamespot a reliable source.

I will buy it day one. Probably a physical copy rather than digital because my WiiU is getting full. I'll pre-order when we know the date for sure. Lots of sources say May 22nd but imma wait for official confirmation

"Streamlined controls make things a little too easy and a little less adventurous" says you, gamespot

"Streamlined controls make things a little too easy and a little less adventurous" says you, gamespot Because we all love Super Metroid and think it is a great adventure for its slightly awkward controls and not its detailed environments and immersive gameplay. 10/10 would review again

I won't be back in my hometown until the end of April so I can't pre-order it yet : (

You can't pre-order it online?

You can't pre-order it online? I'd rather not deal with EB Games at all, really. There doesn't seem to be any real bonus to pre-ordering it other than reserving a copy, and do you think that they'll run out of copies in a whole city? I kinda doubt it, even in my small hometown (POP 50,000). If the game store runs out, there is always Best Buy, Wal-Mart (shudder)...still, when I get home I'll probably stop in to EB anyways. I know the manager there (there's always THAT GUY who knows the manager) so she can tell me how many they think they'll get.

Well if you want the game as soon as possible and don't want to have to deal with driving and dealing with people, just buy it from the Nintendo Eshop when it launches at midnight. As long as you ensure you have enough space and points added to your balance ahead of time that is.

I'm going to get it day 1, but I'm unsure if I'm going to get it from the eshop or get a physical copy. I'll also be pre-ordering the Splatoon amiibo set once they're available.

As long as you ensure you have enough space and points added to your balance ahead of time that is. I thought about that. Depends on how big the game is and what I'm willing to give up. Probably WindWaker HD...or maybe move Metroid Prime Trilogy to a separate drive, cuz it's huge. Does Big N show how big the game is in terms of memory before it goes on sale?

Yes, you'll be able to look up exactly how large filesize/number of blocks wise the download is going to be before the game is released. In terms if getting the game as quickly as possible, this is faster the waiting for retailers to open 7-9+ hours later even with the time it takes to transfer a few gigabytes of data factored in. So you'll easily be able to look up what Splatoon's is before it drops on the 29th/midnight on the 28th.
