Well apparently it's still confirmed to be a launch title, correct me if I'm wrong, so this might just have surpassed Excite Truck for my #1 launch title.

Still don't know how the controller will work, however. I really doubt there won't be an option to use classic controls; SNKP can't be THAT incompetent.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I saw some display cases of the game at a Gamestop, so I doubt it hasn't.

I will get this game Wednesday instead of Monday, so I'll have something to look forward to after my presentation.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
