Wait, so you preordered the game, but now have no system to play it on?? Major bummer! If you do get the game tonight, you should post it on Craigslist immediately for a high price, I guarantee every store will be sold out within 48 hours, and there's still gonna be those super desperate gamers that would be willing to pay a higher price for it thats what you think, Toys-r-us rarely sells out of hot titles because no one thinks to look there for games. they had last of us long into the scalping period

Ah yeah, I can understand that haha. But isn't there a new Fifa every year? That's something I'll never understand with sports games, every year a new one comes out and it's predecessor goes from a full price game to bottom of the bargain bin overnight. I remember trying to trade a Madden game that had just been outdated by a new release a couple of months earlier, and Gamestop would only give me 75 cents for it. Plus, there won't be a new GTA for a loooooong time, so I would get in on it while it's in its prime Same goes for CoD, lol. Last one I had was 12 and I feel I need an upgrade since I broke my previous one. As for the price, that's just GameStop ripping you off.

We had the midnight sale last night here for GTA 5. When I bought San Andreas today the guy said he had almost forgotten there were other games in the series he had sold so many of the new one lol. Didn't get Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 for the Wii though. He said he could order it in but the price was $80 so I just skipped it for now.

I personally haven't played LoU, but I know it's a hugely successful game. The thing is that GTA has been around for over a decade to build up a worldwide fan base, and the hype around it is much more massive than LoU. GTA 5 is expected to be the best selling game of this generation, even over the Call of Duty series, and that alone says a ton considering CoD has been at the top for years now and releases a new title every year. Another thing is even people who have never played video games know what GTA is. Think about all of the controversy that GTA has caused with tons of different groups, activists, etc. My 60 year old mom knows what GTA is, and the only video game she's ever played is Wii Fit...

I seriously don't remember hearing anything about those games when they were coming out other than Luigi's Mansion 3ds haha. I've seen GTA commercials non-stop for weeks and ads all over the net.
But that is good info to know, in case there's a future game that I have trouble finding after the initial launch.

3DS sales aren't very good, so it's not surprising they're still around.
