Wait! What¿ The game is out¿ Oh wow. I thought it would take a while. Going to go look for it at Sears or somewhere.
That's some shadow government shit right there. Maybe replace "shadow government" with "corporate ineptitude" but shadow government sounds so much cooler.
It probably sold out everywhere. I couldn't even pre-order it a few months ago because Gamestop said all the copies were reserved already.
Gamefly just sent me a copy. Thought this was supposed to be an XBLA game for the last several months, right up until I saw it added to GF's upcoming release list a week ago. I'm not even sure how I even wound up hearing this game existed. Oh well. Hopefully it doesn't suck.
Watched that gameplay trailer.
First was liek: "Ohh, pretty."
Then was liek: "Ehh. All bogged down by the huge emphasis on a story I don't give two sh-.."
Then was liek: "HO MY GOD WHERE CAN I GET MY HANDS ON THIS GAME?!"
Now I must find eet.

Well this is weird. I do hope to see your review soon. You know as soon as you make that deal with satan to get a copy. You should go ask EA I hear they have his number.
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
This is the funniest shit I've heard all day. Damn Konami's lack of marketing is embarrassing.

Gamestop.com has it listed for a 3/31 release date. Walmart.com has a pre-order button with a release date of 3/09. Bestbuy.com seems to show it in stock with the correct release date.
I just checked the official site and this game still "has a unique charm, banter and mystery all tits own."
Amazon has it in stock for both PS3 and 360... I'm waiting to see a review of it before pulling the trigger.

Fantastic Indeed!
I just watched a video and found out the game is only $39.99....SOLD!

My GS store got 1 PS3 and 1 360 today. I had my preorder switched to get SFxT and never re-reserved it, but still got them in. All you have to do is call around and cross your fingers.

I've seen it happen with smaller titles. When the game isn't a major title, there has been little player interest, and you barely have any pre-orders, you end up with stores barely ordering a title.
I've also seen Gamestop not stock some smaller titles until days after release. They might be sent something to cover pre-orders, but might not have any shelf stock until the end of week or possibly the next week. You go in release day, or even the day after, and you can't find it. You go in Friday or Saturday and find ten copies on the shelf.
Then there was the case of Samurai Warriors 3 for the Wii, which had a terrible launch. People were told to come pick up pre-orders, only to be told on arrival that the store hadn't received the game. Stores like Best Buy and Target were showing it as in-stock (both online and if you asked an employee at a specific store), but had no physical copies of the game when checked. Stores were changing the release date on a daily basis. Some people were finding it on the original release date, but it sounded like is wasn't available in fairly large parts of the country.
As almost a capstone to the stupidity, I found a copy at a Wal-Mart two days after the original release date, when no other local store (including Gamestop) yet had it. A Wal-Mart that *didn't* have the game listed as in-stock and I don't think planned to even carry it. They had maybe 20 copies stacked in the bottom of a display case. They hadn't even bothered to put a priced copy on a shelf, instead just shoving them beside the boxed peripherals.

Tak's twitter is so hilarious. I love following him. "EXTREEEEEEEEMMMMMEEEEEEEE hangover!"
Nobody has reviewed this game yet. Not on amazon, not on Metacritic (There is one metacritic user review). JIM: TIME TO DO WHAT YOU DO BEST.

Maybe it sold out everywhere.

Aww, poor Tak Fujii though, he seems like a lovely guy.

Finishing my insanity ME2 run, my normal ME3 run, then I'm hunting this down. I expect it to suck, but something about these off the radar titles almost always is a good enough idea or bit of gameplay to remind me AAA isn't all there is. I find almost all indie games to be about presentation more than actual creativity, so it's nice to try things that fall in the middle.
And yes, I basically just said indie games aren't that different from AAA titles. Sue me. Making something 2D isn't creative, it's just a throwback. Nothing wrong there, but nothing jaw dropping either. Tired of the obsession with indie titles.

I checked Best Buy and other retailers as well, Gamestop here in the states have the release date for the 30th of this month! What's going on here?!
I received a text message/e-mail from my gamestop to pick my copy up today (Since it was such a low key title.... I MADE SURE to reserve it), even the reserve list in store said it was out today as well. BUT the computer in store did not like the fact I was picking it up today though.
@Furyfire
Well, there's you, and then there's me. So, Konami sold 2 copies of the game. Massive success given how much marketing they put into it!!

I'm not a fan of his games, but I appreciate this guy's enthusiasm. This is the man who should be spearheading the (Xtreme) reboot of the Goemon franchise! Let Wayforward develop it, but let him produce it! Konami is failing at new IPs, so it's time to go into the vault!
If it helps, its available in torrent sites everywhere (at least the Xbox copy). I was looking for reviews of this game and there wasn't any. The first game was so so but its playable.
I think we all heard of Amazon, but if you want something THAT BAD you'll try to find it at a store first. After so many tries Amazon is a calling. Trust me I've done this before. After 3 strike outs I'll take out my phone, in the last store I was at, and order it on Amazon.
