I'm pretty sure a lot of them ordered from Amazon. They're really awesome with their shipping, but it doesn't look like you'll get a plushie for preordering from them. Not sure if that's an issue for you or not.

Gamestop is normally pretty strict about not releasing anything early, so I'm pretty sure you shouldn't count on them for that.

I'm planning on ordering from the Natume site. I'm hoping I should get it relatively on time with the little yak plush.

Gamestop is strict when it comes to big name releases like Halo and Call of Duty. Unfornately, Harvest Moon isn't really a big game to them.

I ordered Tott from Gamestop, got a plushie, and got the game A ENTIRE DAY in advance. I was just sitting in my house when my mom dropped the box on me. It was a great feeling!

However, I did pay for overnight shipping. Which is about an addition of 10 to 12 bucks.

Gamestop has done this to be before however. I've gotten X-Men Origins, Kingdoms of Amular, and a few other titles the day before its release as long as I ordered over night shipping.

Ok, I was wondering what it was, it does make sense now that it was overnight shipping as to how u got it a day early, but would amazon do the same? like with overnight and i will try hard, but could live without the plushie

Although Ill prob just get it from gs online
