Is there a chance you will get Silent Hill: Shattered Memories this weekend?
Posted By: Whitney December 1st, 2009 | 7:25 pmDomon7411 a frequent visitor of this site emailed me this bit of news!
I went to Gamestop to finish paying off my preorder for it and to pick up New Super Mario Bros. Wii. After I checked out, I asked the cashier when they expected to have it in (my local Gamestop is notorious for being a few days behind on the release dates), and he said that they were expecting to have it at least by Monday, but they could possibly have it by this Friday.
Now it wouldn’t surprise me in the least to find out that it won’t be out till Tuesday, but if by some strange twist it does come out friday, I thought you would want to know.
Makes me kind of wish I went to my local Gamestop to make my pre-order! I hope if it’s an early release Gamestop.com will send me my copy early 🙂
Retailers are not suppose to sell video games prior to their publicized release date.
That’s true but I heard SMB Wii sold early so who knows 🙂
My gamestop wont do that. I pre-ordered Sonic Chronicles, and it got there a week early. My friend that worked there told me, but he couldn’t score it early for me.
The only time I pre-ordered something and it got in my hands early, was Ashley Tisdale’s 2nd CD, Guilty Pleasure.
In my experience most retailers get games a few days prior to release (distributor shipping so it’s early rather than late) but most retailers don’t shelve early. I’d be surprised if more than a few isolated people get SM before Tuesday.
I reserved a copy at my local Gamestop on Thursday Oct. 8 and despite it saying online that the release date was November 3, I was told in-store that the release date was November 4. I thought nothing of it at the time, I shrugged it off thinking it were a mere slip of the tongue. On November 18 I went back to that Gamestop to reserve a copy of Monster Hunter Tri. While there I asked the man working at the counter if he had any information regarding the delayed release of Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. He told me these sort of delays happen…. ….and that the game would be released on December 9. It was at this particular point in time that I began to question my own sanity……
…hey I just got a shipment email from Gamestop.com. I went to track my order and it says it’s OUT FOR DELIVERY near my work, right now, as in TODAY. I might get to play the game TONIGHT!? Anyone else receive shipment emails?
