Thank you guys for the great responses,
The sad thing about GS and EB is that in my area (The middle of nowhere, California) the closest GS is about 40 miles away and the last time I visited they hadn't even heard of the game.
On Amazon, I did miss out on the deal during Black Friday but I'll be sure to keep tabs on what's going on.
And what I've been fearing for a while now is the possibility that Konami has discontinued the game and I could miss out on catching it for 28 before it goes up to 45 like the scalpers do on Ebay.
Thank you all once again for your responses, they were both helpful and insightful!
