Has anyone actually confirmed this from a US site or NOA themselves? I've been trying to find this game and it's become a damned headache. Yes I can buy it off ebay, but people are ginning up this story to screw people out of twice the retail price which isn't happening. This thing was at various places around Christmas for the normal $40 retail price so this just seems screwy for it to play the 8/16bit Nintendo predator game in barely over a month. At most I'd pop for the original price, shipping and stuff as any rational person should (that or trade something of equal value.)
I got impatient and called. The NOA rep said and I quote: "It is both widely available at both retail and on the eshop."
What the F! Goddamn rumors causing people to scoop the stuff up potentially here.
