Is it really all that hard to get? Just wondering. =/

Have you tried ordering it from Nintendo? That's the only way to get it.

No, I mean, I was just wondering if it was hard to get.

Can't be the only way to get it, I've seen several new copies at the EBGames around here. I'm in Canada, was it only in the US that it was by order only?

Is it worth picking up if it's going to be uber hard to get later?

I found a used copy of it, albeit complete, in Gamestop a few months back. Needless to say, I picked it up.

I've only seen it in the Gamestops around here once in the last six months since I started looking for it. I too found it a few weeks ago. Luckily it was Buy 2 Get 1 Free, and was marked $29.99. The fact that it commands that price preowned still suggests it's uncommon.

As far as I know, the game was only sold online, though some internet retailers shifted copies to their physical locations.

I know you can find the game at Canadian EB stores, I think they sell them for $50 though. Will it be worth more than that down the line? Maybe. It'll definitely be worth more than most DS games. But whether its value will be $60 or $20 remains to be seen.

As always, get it if you want it, and leave your speculating and investing for stocks and bonds.

I thought I heard on CAG that this got reprinted and EG/GS is now selling it in-store. Anyone know for sure?

[PDorr3]

I would pay $30 for it to try it out, but even if the reprint is true I have yet to see one in gamestop ever....even recently.

It's common enough here in the UK, you don't have to look hard to find it. In an irony, I got an import version off ebay (yes I did check it with the seller AND when I received it) which is probably now worth more than when I bought it, lol.

They are very hard to get. Nintendo no longer sells them online (they havn't in quite a while) and about a year ago some EB/GS stores got a few copies in, but as far as I know there hasn't been a reprint. It was probably Nintendo selling some of that remainder stock off to EB/GS and these stores had still been holding onto copies.

Weird. Last time I was in EB I saw a few copies there. Didn't occur to me how rare it was.
