Skyward Sword release on 11/11 in switzerland

Quick question about Scene releases, are they only released on the actual street dates or before as well? If only on street dates, would the 11th count for Skyward Sword? Forgive my ignorance towards the topic, I've never payed too much attention to the finer details.

they'll release it when they get it. it won't matter if it's before or after the street date. in fact, most scene releases for the xbox 360 r before the street date--sometimes a month before. if it does comes out tomorrow (today?), I'm sure it'll be online within a matter of hours.

Ahhh thanks! Basically the date wasn't official but it seems a good few stores were selling it. And even more member's copies are supposedly arriving today as well, so it is good news. I guess I should just sleep and see what happens, should be interesting.

wait, the sites say the 17th and 18th, what makes everyone think it will be on sale tomorrow?

They've been updated since. Some stores actually sold them on the 11th (their local time).

Says the guy with enough time to write this in a forum. xD

Just playing around with you bud. On a related note, I did go out for some sunshine for a little bit to test out my DSLR, so I haven't exactly been on my ass F5ing every two seconds.

I'm gonna go out of a limb and predict that the leak will come out on the 14th at the latest. Just a hunch.

Ok im going to share my thoughts on when this leak is going to happen.

SO first of all lets assume that game stores in swissland open at 10 AM like gaemstop. Thats 1 AM pacific (im in california). If we assume that people can buy it at the store when it opens and one of those people is going to upload it then the earliest we may see it is between 2 and 3 AM PST.

Second scenario is that no stores have shelf copies in the morning and the only people getting it are by mail. I dont know when swissland gets mail normally but im going to assume its around 3 PM because thats when i get mail. 3 PM in swissland is 6 AM PST so in this scenario we can assume a leak as early as 7 or 8 AM PST.

Thoughts?

Went on IGN just a moment ago, I think I caught them accidentally leaking the score for Skyward Sword. See link. =)

Calling it a fake.. it cant have 17 User reviews already.

Why does seeing Costello watching this thread make me nervous?

It actually has 17 user reviews already somehow. Though for me the score is coming up as "0.0"

It will be available on store at 9AM here, I asked a vendor yesterday. Same thing for Super Mario 3D Land. It's a Swiss exclusivity since German had often sold games early before. And it's apparently legal Too sad I'll have to wait this evening after work to open the game... (I have ordered it yesterday and it's on its way to my mailbox... Frustrating)

Yeah come to think of it EB Games over here broke the street date on Ocarina of Time 3D because Game Traders got annoyed they couldn't get in on the Ocarina Edition package so they imported a bunch from the UK and released it early (Parallel importing is perfectly within their rights). And Nintendo didn't do anything, possibly because EB Games is a division of GameStop and they don't want to upset them =P

It was apparently some odd setup where they could sell it to you but only if you specifically asked for it, and they weren't allowed to advertise they were selling it before release or put in on the shelf... or something =P

And Kilvearn thanks for the information =)
