I can't seem to find any evidence now of GameStop saying that the Chrono Trigger bonus music CD and poster were an exclusive pre-order perk, but I do remember seeing that. Don't you? Well, it turns out that this offer wasn't so exclusive.
Stephen at Aeropause flipped back and forth, stomach turning under the stress, losing sleep at night. Should he change his Amazon pre-order back to GameStop because of the goodies? He couldn't decide. In the end, he didn't, as Amazon had the lower price.
When his copy of Chrono Trigger DS arrived in the mail, it was shrinkwrapped with both the CD and the poster. This was probably a first-run deal or something, but still. GameStop, were you trying to pull a fast one on us?

Shit rox.
Gamestop sucks, the people there always seem to have a very pretentious attiude. I once asked about the 8 -bit simon belmont that came with dracula x chronicles and I got the $hittiest look and the kid saying in one decibel lower than a yell "YOU ONLY GET THAT IF YOU PRE ORDERED!" I don't visit those stores often, only to get a used copy of an old gem... IF they have it.
