Pre-Order Black and White
/Finally you can now Pre-Order Black and White off Amazon. Their release data may not be correct, but if you Pre-Order you lock your price in at $35. Also, Pre-Ordering on Amazon doesn't use any of your money. You pay in full when your item ships. Why have GameStop hold your $5 in their bank when it can sit in your bank. Last year Amazon did release day shipping, so let's hope they do it again come spring (of course they will). So exciting!
