Anyone have it on preorder? I'm a dork so that would include me.....7 days, starting to get a little pumped about it.

Pre-Ordered it via best Buy about a month ago. I'm sure the game will be good. I pre-ordered mario Kart as well, probably play that for an hour or so and then the Wii won't see anything time for a few more months.

i also preordered it from best buy...figure my reward zone bucks and coupons will pay for it by themselves...

i accidentally picked up the "Special Edition" Box when I pre-ordered......it is like 90 bucks for a backpack and crap i really don't want. I'm hoping they let me just get the game....

I'd call them, TODAY. Orders done on-line can be a HUGE pain in the butt. I'd call them and let them know what you wanted to buy because if you go in the store to pick it up and tell them you want to switch, then they'll have to cancel the on-line order and with the reward zone cash, that's just going to turn your quick pick-up into a long nightmare (speaking from experience).

Ooooh... Well, if you go in there prior to picking up the game (this week??), you may want to switch it out.

We're talking about Best Buy here? I doubt they would be of any help.

Nope, EA screwed us Wii-gamers over again.

The GTA series is made by RockStar Games not EA, but I think at one point EA was trying to buy out TakeTwo/RockStar.....i don't know if they ever succeeded?
