Neither the Gamestop nor the Best Buy near me had it as of today.

I saw that we have a shipping order on the way to our Gamestop right now. I would guess they'll be there either Thursday or Friday at the latest. w00t!

I got mine today from Gamestop. Comes in a standard GC case.
Its got the Hoth level from the store demo. The SW Arcade emulation is dead on. The Hard level's still a bitch. Other than that, there's not too much to it, really. It also included some art from the series also. A cool bonus though.

Please let me know if anyone gets their bonus disc from EB.
I was planning on asking about it when I go in on the 9th to get FFTA.

In that case, I'll have mine Thursday. Huzzah!

Okay, I picked mine up at EB today.
I love how it says "Not For Resale" on the front. :-D Well, at least it's a nice thing for collectors.
Here's what's actually on here --
1) A trailer of Rebel Strike, due out only for the GC from Lucasarts on 10/15.
2) A playable stage of Rebel Strike -- I believe the first stage, the battle of Hoth.
3) A trailer of another upcoming Lucasarts game, Gladius, a action/RPG game set in Ancient Roman times, due out for all three consoles on 10/29.
4) A trailer of the artwork and concepts used in Rebel Strike
And -- the best part --
5) A fully playable emulated version of Atari's vector Star Wars game from the Arcades, from 1982.
The emulation is very good, but not quite perfect. The screen is kinda dark -- need to turn the brightness up on the TV. Sound is on the low side also unless you turn it up. Sometimes the stages are slow to load -- I also had one lock up where I had to reset the GC.
The controlls are good, but what I REALLY need is a joystick that does'nt self-center. Do they make one for the Game Cube?
All in all, worth a pre-order. :D
