There is a lot of confusion as to when LOZ:TWW is released; 2nd or 3rd. I've been (reliably) informed that Nintendo wanted the release date to be may 3rd. Research shows there are certain dates that are more memorable than others, and Nintendo wanted to release one of their biggest games of the year on a memorable day. The stores, however, wanted to release the game on Friday in the hope of selling more copies. Who is right? I don't know, hopefully, it'll be delivered in time for tomorrow, though:D

I also got mine due to a GAD win.

A rare one, but a vital one never-the-less.

But I'm getting mine from Special Reserve, who appear to be sticking to the release date (which is fine by me).

Game, however, are playing it dirty, and, seeing as I didn't order it from them, they need to be hit with large SR stick.

As for stealing the copies from Game - no need, I won mine from Gameaday :D (Thanks SR :D - can't wait until it arrives now)

You want to hit them with a stick for sending out Wind Waker early?

I think hugs and kisses would be more appropriate....obviously only to the female members of staff though.

Providing that I can smash them with SR stick afterwards.

Can I come and bring my "play" and "simply games" sticks?

Game, however, released it as soon as they had stock!

Damn Game, I will construct a large stick with Special Reserve's logo printed upon it, and it shall be used to beat Game with...repeatedly, for releasing Zelda before it is due out.
