This was taken at EB Games, I didn't even know that DK was slated for 3DS, and I wasn't expecting a new SB until 2013.
Thoughts?

2012 my ass. They just started developing the games this year. Unless the 3DS version is supposed to be half-assed I see no reason we shouldn't be waiting until 2017.

i'm guessing they got a glimpse of the 2012 launch window - which would be a financial year which ends 31st March 2013.

And considering this is nintendo - it will be delayed for some time anyway.

GameStop/EB will take preorders on anything that has been announced, even if there's no release date.

Huh. Maybe a scam. Or maybe they know something we don't.

Gamestop usually does that before the actual boxart is released.

And better salaries.

Especially here. The only reason ANY of us are able to afford the AU90-110 new console game price, AU70-100 new PC games price and AU50-70 new Handheld game price ranges.

AUD = 1.05 USD as of now, so not much of a difference to be told...
