Are you sure that was steelbooks and not game preorders?

Although that still seems high for just the games

The gamestop near me said they were only getting 8 copies of the game in and 4 - 5 steelbooks.

But there are probably more gamestops per capita in the us then there are eb games per captia in canada I would think

Gamestops are pretty damn rampant here. A bit like starbucks excpect I don't mind going in

The internet says that there's only around 350 eb game stores in Canada but that seems low.....

From Gamestops corporate info

Found Here: http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix....=irol-faq#9321

"How many stores does GameStop operate, under what names?

GameStop has 6,614 stores in operation, of which 4,434 are located in the United States, 343 in Canada, 413 in Australia/New Zealand and 1,424 are in Europe. Our stores operate primarily under the names of GameStop and EB Games. Our stores sell new and used video game software, hardware and accessories for video game systems from Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft. In addition, the company sells PC entertainment software, related accessories and other merchandise."

EB Games is owned by gamestop

So with less than a tenth of the stores maybe the stores get a higher allotment of things?

Of course Canada also only has a tenth the population of the US but I guess it's more like 10% of the US population but 8% the number of Gamestop / Eb games

I just left my local GameStop and they had about 21 steels for the game but they are all spoken for.

I was told they hold on to them for three days and I could try then to get one. That is if someone decides to not pick up their copy.

Yeah, those were the number of steels they had. Most stores said they had just enough steels to cover their preorders. Some stores had more preorders than steels so some people are going to get screwed.

I was able to get a preorder in one store which had one steel left. The guy wouldn't let me take it till the game is released but he showed it to me. It's a nice steel
