Any one know whats going on, I checked 3 EB games, and a future shop last night and they were all sold out, even amazon.ca is sold out! The store clerks keep mentioning some kind of delay for canada, but I doubt there reliability, anyone know whats going on?

Went into EB on Tuesday, they said they hadn't received them yet, went in on Wednesday at around 230PM and they were just pulling them out of the box, maybe 30 copies if that, and in the short 3 minutes I was in EB about 5 people other than me purchased Demon's Souls and the clerk received a call asking if they had any, it seems to be a lot more popular than people had anticipated.

Well, it has become the norm lately that we don't get game shipments until Wednesdays or Thursdays the majority of the time. Also, with a game like Demon's Souls, which isn't well known outside of the hardcore gaming fansbase, stores aren't going to order many copies. And EB is notorious for only ordering enough copies to meet pre-orders so the general public gets screwed and then EB tells them they should pre-order next time.

That's why I use ebay.

Less expensive, and there's always stock.

Sure you have to wait for the game to arrive, but I'm a patient man, so I don't care much for a week or two.

My Eb didn't get any till Wednesday. They only had 2 boxes full of Demon's Souls, so I guess in Canada they're only shipping so many. However there was more regular editions than the deluxe edition. I was planning on purchasing the regular but that deluxe edition had such a nice shining cover, I couldn't resist. :P

I live in Eastern NB and got my copy on the 7th. I don't think there is a delay, this was actually a quick release compared to most games - we usually get them 1-3 days after release.

Also they seem to be in pretty limited supply..where I bought mine they only received 2 copies (I luckily found it at Blockbuster) and they actually sold it to me and now only have 1 copy for rental.
