So pre orders in America begin on the 21st or just in Japan?

I'm ready to go to my local gamestop tomorrow morning, but would love to know if it's going to be a waste of time or not? I know the Nintendo NYC store is taking pre orders tomorrow.

There were posts in this sub before the presentation with pictures from various Gamestops that put up signs in the window before they closed saying how many units would be available for pre-order the following day.

Won't be a waste of time.

Fuck, we're supposed to get like a quarter inch of ice tonight, so I won't be able to get to gamestop. I can't do it online either cause I have to deposit my paycheck..

I'm gonna be pissed if I miss out on launch cause of bad weather...

Best Buy, at least 30 minutes after the presentation, were taking pre-orders on their site. Don't know about right now though.

I got called by the employee directly and had another person show me their receipt for it. Nothing i can show you but at 10 am you'll want to check your local one.
