Why is this week's Monday Night PlayBit delayed? Because the game to be featured in the PlayBit is nowhere to be found! After a pretty complete search of area stores, Kirby's Return to Dreamland isn't in any of them. It seems despite the October 24th release date, the game will not be in stores until tomorrow. Given this, expect there to be a "PlayBit Tonight" on Wednesday, beginning at 7:30 PM instead. I hope to see you then!
I constantly get frustrated by misleading release dates, but Nintendo's track record in the recent past has been pretty solid. Even though this was releasing on a Monday instead of a Sunday, I really thought I'd see it in stores, but I suppose that's not the case. Oh well.
Yeah, that's really odd.
Hooray, I snagged a copy today! Being the obstinate crab that I am, I've also emailed Nintendo from my civilian gmail account about this mess. Expect some type of editorial rant on PB & Jason when that goes up whenever at some late hour tomorrow. I'm generally unhappy when a miscommunication like this occurs because it frustrates me and you, and generally every early software purchaser, as well as retailers who have well-informed customers.
