From what I understand from the beta-testers, probably on release day... Whatever day that actually ends up being in the next 2 weeks.

@!$ ESC key. I had a longer post and then I nudge it and it dissapears. Shorter version.

Not available or listed in NA?, yet I've had it since wednesday. Perhaps NA distribution is harder than just sending it to Australia.

Even though it is a fringe game I find it odd my copy was half the price of a new game. Sort of like it didn't sell well and they cut the price.Something like the book store here that brings out new books and immediately cuts the price, saying "get it while on special". I would assume that's universal.

Bad marketing decision to wait until after the weekend is over. It should have been released on friday so that everyone can talk about it -- increases sales that way.

It isn't, officially, supposed to be out yet. The official release date is on a Monday.

As it is, all the EB stores in my area show:
Copies in Store: 0. More on the Way? No.

EBGames' website has gone from pre-order to 'usually ships in 24 hours', their generic now shipping status.

EB store in Scarborough Town Center:

Hadn't heard of it, didn't know when it was coming out, didn't know when it would be in the store. Not even listed on their computer.

I'd suggest ordering it online or reserving it in the store, then. Might be one they don't even ship unless they get pre-orders.

EB does that on even popular games sometimes. :/Can't count the number of times I've gone in on release day and "Sorry, we can't sell you any- all our copies are for pre-orders only."

Haven't found SE5 in any of the other stores around here, though.

I couldn't pre-order or reserve in store because the game doesn't exist on their computer!

Strategy First is Canadian, right?

It should, because its my local store's computer and definitely online.

Yep, they're Canadian.

Are you in the States Phoenix-D?

We don't have a Canadian EB-Games website. All ordering has to be through the US site, and in US dollars.

Perhaps ordering through Strategy First is the way to go for me.
