Outpost has it for 19.99

Outpost also charges like 7 bucks for shipping, and I've been hearing accounts of it taking weeks to arrive.

I recommend EB before Outpost.com. EB charges $1.99 shipping; Outpost charges about $7 shipping plus for me, I get charged sales tax. So that $19.99 isn't $19.99 for long. Plus my one shopping experience at Outpost was horrible, REALLY horrible.
Go with EB.

For me Outpost's and EB ship times are about equal and so is the cost in this case. Hopefully it will still be the same price at EB when I get my $20 voucher...

Do you know if this is in store as well? Also if they are going to lower the preowned price?

I'm always afraid that I'm going to be getting a used game at their "new" price. But if you are comfortable with EB, then this is a good deal.

I just got back from EB today. This game is one of several GC games in their Fall sale with a $5 off. Therefore, it would be $24.99 in store because the regular price is $29.99 now. Check out the EB B&M Fall sale thread for other games on sale.

This game keeps drawing me closer and closer... how long does it take to finish? I only have time for games that are 10 hours or less right now.

First time when I played it and watched all the codec/cutscenes. It took me around 10 hours. The second time I played it and skipped all the codec/cutscenes knowing where everything and how to beat every boss, it took me a little over 3 hours to beat it.

Oh yeah, a cool thing about the game is that if you don't feel like watchin the cutscenes then after u beat the game u can watch every single codec/cutscenes over again the in the casting theater. Something that I think should be included into every game that has lengthy cutscenes.

Hmmm any chance of this dropping to $20 universally soon?

I'd be surprised if it did. Nintendo-published games usuallly take a very long time to drop (F-Zero GX being an exception to this rule). That Kirby racing game is still $50.

... and I still want it. I think it's mostly that it's one of the few games that has LAN play. (Other than Mario Kart and 1080*.)
