Made SEVERAL calls to Gamestop and a call to my credit card company to get an issue fixed where they thought me spending $231.10 on the bundle was "fraud"
-___________________-
hopefully the next time GS tries to charge me it'll go through
Also, they assured me that the game will be IN THE STORE on the 4th AND the bundle will come on the 4th. If that's true, I'm not sure what I'll do. O_o Doubt I could wait for shipping so I'd prob pick up the game, play it until it gets shipped, then transfer over to the new 3DS lol then beat the game then beat it again on the downloaded version or somethign idk
Since I have 2 copies of the game I'll be beating the game like 5 times prob I know that much (and I'll have one playthrough with all the streetpass and DLC stuff too XP)

In case anyone's curious, Metacritic has a bunch of reviews up. The lowest score is an 85! (don't worry, no spoilers.)

It's already out. Not just in Canada, that was a rumor. Proton_Jon (LP'er) already has a copy.

I probably could have gotten a review copy considering I work for a newspaper...ah well. I'll wait like the rest of us fans!
Also, EB Games got in some big trouble for selling the game early, I think.

Thanks for the link bobryk! It was really encouraging the read the good reviews so far. And it even has a handy dandy timer for when the game is released ^^
I'm not super familiar with the critics/reviews on the site, so I don't know if a 9.1 is super good by their standards or not. Or if the score is always good when a game is approaching release date. Are they usually pretty good about their ratings?

lol that sounds nifty^
and anything under a 90 is garbage, the game deserves those 100's though
also what is this about the game not only having been leaked in Canada

Metacritic compiles reviews from all the major reviewers, so it's generally the most reliable source. And I believe anything above a 75 is considered "universal acclaim"-- their highest possible rank. Getting a 96 from IGN and a 90 from gameinformer are probably the most important though, considering those are huge.
Fun fact: Awakening is currently the highest rated Fire Emblem. (Fe7 is close with Fe9&8 right behind.)
tldr: 9.1 is super awesome according to their standards. (Final Fantasy 7 has a 92, for reference, and is considered one of the best RPGs of all time.)

Fun fact: according to my brother (how he gets all these stats is beyond me), Awakening has sold ~500,000 copies in Japan and ~250,000 PREORDERS in the U.S. We may be seeing the first Fire Emblem to sell over a million copies!
Also, this made me check metacritic again and the score has gone from 91 to...92!
