I've probably just killed about ten people in here from heart attacks.

Nintendo have HALFED the supply of GBA's into America... why? Because they want to make sure that there are enough GBA's for launch in Europe.

They are putting Europeans ABOVE Americans... this has never happened before, and it's quite amazing.

This could be thanks to Special REserve and other games selling companies!

There must've been so many preordered here compared to US that they decided to prioritise!

It's quite possible. They could easily get away with it too.

Maybe they can charge more for them in Europe.

I'm not sure. But you would think it there was going to be a low stockage situation, they would rather have it in America?

Very, very odd. But America should be ok.
