Yeah, about that. I'm from Adelaide too and it was a super-rare release which I only saw once (and got) in EB Tea Tree Plaza.
You could try asking your local EB to order one in. Apart from that and Ebay, the choices are a bit limited

Thanks i will have to do that. I have had to do it before for Paper Mario and Timesplitters 2 so it shouldn't be too hard.

Ebay has them going from 110-120 dollars, insanly expensive *sigh*

Considering that the retail was AU$110, I wouldn't really complain.

I wonder why Konami put Atari in charge of Aus distributing. Iwata better do something about you poor Aus. people.

DVDBoxOffice is an Canadian online store.  NTSC games only.

I recommend getting the game from DVDCrave.  That's where I got it from.

Get Metroid, that game is brilliant, perfect in so many ways.

Only 500 copies? How many copies does a normal game get?
