Picking this up today. No hesitation.

Good luck finding it... based on my experience a more accurate headline would be "Zack & Wiki Now Slowly Making Its Way Toward the General Vicinity of Stores."

Gamestop automated pre-order phone call said it would be here Wednesday afternoon.

Everybody buy this game...NOW!!!!!!!!

Seriously, if the game is a good as everyone says it is then we must support it! That should stop third parties from saying that their games are going to flop on the Wii!

I should be getting this today.

I was already sold on the budget price and point and click adventure style. I hope this does well. 3rd parties need to know that GOOD games will sell on the Wii but they need to be, you know, good.

Picked mine up! Got it just as the UPS man came in, I don't think they ordered many because the box was pretty small. I'll be enjoying this tonight.

Got mine! Support Zack & Wiki people!

I got mine too, but I've left it on pause for quite a bit now, I'm busy with other stuff...like typing this post.

I got mine but . . .

it doesn't look good for Zack & Wiki.

Capcom has completely failed at making this game known AT ALL.

I walk into my local gamestop and ask for a copy. Some new guy is helping me and says "sure we have that" and starts looking around for it . . . a number of minutes later he asks what system it's for. I say the Wii. He says "ohhhh ok!" and continues to look . . . more time goes by and the veteran gamestop guy who has helped me many times and knows tons about games and their releases asks what I am looking for.

He looks it up on the computer and asks "Zack & Wiki is that a new game for . . . DS?" I said ". . . no for Wii". He says "ohhh ok, well we have it in . . ." and they both continue to look for them. They can't find the game anywhere behind the counter so he asks some guy in the back.

He comes back with a copy and says "Heh sorry about that, we got in 3 copies and they were all on the shelf".

I was happy to finally get my copy but man, only THREE copies Capcom? And the clerks don't even know about a brand new game they got in?

Not a great way to kick off things with a new IP.

Capcom is hoping the Phoenix Wright 1 marketing strategy will work again I guess.

$40 US = $45 AUD. Yet it's going to cost $100 when it launches in December = $90 US

WHERE'S THE WII FREELOADER ALREADY.

I called stores all over town today, and it's sold out.

I went to Best Buy and GameStop and didn't see it. I wasn't looking for it. In fact, I wasn't looking for anything, but nothing came out to be a tough decision between that Wii Namco Remix and Dewey's Adventure, Dewey won, but now I want to go back and get that Namco Remix thing, too.

Yay Dewy sales +1!

And yay Zack & Wiki second shipment for Viewtiful Gamer!

The Gamestop guy today tried to sell me a OPENED copy of Zack & Wiki. I'm like "HELL NAWW! FORK THAT SHUMBIZZLE" So I pre-ordered Ghost Squad.

The store only received 2 copies. TWO. One of them was already opened and the price tag was stuck to the DVD casing without plastic wrap.

He said there would've been more if people actually pre-ordered, that way they would've had a better indicator of DEMAND and requested more launch copies.

The world fails for not pre-ordering.

Looks like Capcom was right to predict the low demand and predict the game would bomb. That way, they'd only make 20 copies for the whole world and save lots of cash on printing discs and disc covers. Smart business all-around, as usual.

I pre-ordered! Serves you right, you Capcom hater.

You kiddee gamers are ruining the Wii's line-up!

My Gamestop sold out of their only 2 copies of Dewy's adventure almost instantly as well.

*shakes fist*

I blame YOU!!! Yes.. YOU reader! For not pre-ordering these games!

DON'T Pre-order Mario. DON'T Pre-order Smash Bros. Those games will have TONS of copies and have no problem shipping more.

Pre-order the SMALL games, the games no one expects to do good. THESE are the games that will benefit from you pre-ordering... so PRE-ORDER them! And Atlus games too...

Pre-orders are a stupid way of determining demand... =|

Why send copies to stores when it's only going to get buried by Mario and space marines?

WEB ORDERS ONLY ALL-THE-WAY

Get real. Casuals shop at Wal-Mart.

*cry*

So who buys those Brain Age games that GS has out on display by the cashier? And who will buy Flash Focus Eye Training?

Hey Pro, I don't think you want this game anyway. In the cut scenes, the screen narrows to a wider aspect ratio (I guess) that means it's FMV and not in-game rendered right?

Yeah Toilet Princess does similar things with its cutscenes -- even though it's already in widescreen Nintendo sees fit to TAKE AWAY EVEN MORE of the viewable area but putting more black bars on the top and bottom of cutscenes. 7.9 material indeed.

Sorry Kairon, but I blame CAPCOM for not even promoting their new game . . . at all.

Picked this up earlier today, and so far I like it. The story and characters seem to just be excuses to continue on solving puzzles, but I probably wouldn't be that interested in a kid pirate and a flying monkey anyway.
