Anyone here live in Canada? I've called my two local EB Games stores, Best Buy, Future Shop, and Zellers. All have no idea when Sunshine Islands is coming out, they all know about Animal Parade. D: But i'm wanting Sunshine Islands. >.< Zellers had SI in their flyer, advertised for 34.99$ but with no date. When i called them they said then had no idea when it was coming out. « What The Eggplant ».
T_T Please, anyone here in Canada having the same problem? Or know any stores that do?

That sounds puzzling since for all of North America SI & AP should both be coming out tomorrow. I honestly don't know what to tell you other than to check your local stores that sell games.

I don't know what is going on. Only ever tried EB here since I have friends that work there. 1st one I went to that is closer to where i live, then the one they work at said it was discontinued according to their system. So I went to the one my friends work at since they are more reliable. Also said discontinued.....and it isn't in there binder of up coming releases. Chances are just call stores and see what happens. Who knows what is going on with that game up here. Though I did see on a print out on EB with the item number it said Harvest Moon SI 29.99. Sadly my friend wasn't working that day. Though he said he would look into it....but it won't matter since by the time he works again it would be too late.

All you can do and all others in Canada is check stores on Tuesday.

Eh, that sucks. It's weird, though - amazon.ca has the strategy guide listed and it's already been released.

But, you could always order it from Amazon US. I'm pretty sure they ship internationally. It depends how much you want this game; shipping would cost quite a bit extra. http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/ ... eId=596192

Amazon itself won't however a vendor that is selling the game through amazon will if they say they will ship to Canada.

I noticed at times with some books and games Amazon Cnd won't put up pre-orders on some of them but the day they are released you can find it on the site. Who knows what will happen.

Oh, really? o_O I had no idea. Well, that's silly. Are you sure, though? Why would they offer international shipping if they don't do it themselves?

Oh I am sure. I have tried to get things from Amazon US that CND didn't have. Sad part when I tried through Amazon itself it was a no go. Said I wasn't allowed since it is international. The Vendor prices within amazon was higher :( Yet some of though shops will ship it internationally. I don't know.

Thank you everyone, i'm at least glad to know i'm not the only one going through this. D: I'll take a look if there's a Video game plus where i live, Fretka. I remember last year when IoH came out, and it was quite a few days after the "set" release date.
And yeah, when i called the two different EB games that are by where i live, they both checked their books and couldn't find any. D:

Amazon always shipping preorders late, they just get it after release sadly. I'll never again preorder from them - one time I preordered game it was shipped like a week after release date, so I got it two weeks later. Was sad to see game in GS already on the shelves and my pre-order not even been shipped... :(
