I wonder if this was intentional bait and switch move born from desperation.

This is quite sad, but I do feel just about safe with my SSX and Mass Effect 3 orders...

Here in Portugal, GAME still doesn't have Resident Evil Revelations...and it appears that it won't even stock the standard edition of The Last Story...time to buy them somewhere else!

Portugal's GAME has sucked for a long time now. They're not taking any pre-orders for Mass Effect, they didn't get neither Persona 2: Innocent Sin nor Tales of the Abyss 3DS, they usually get some of the rarer games a couple of months later than in Spain or the UK.

The fucked up thing is that Game Stage usually had every game on time and they were pretty darn amazing with the rarer games and imports...but GAME drove them out of business. Fuck GAME >_>.
