I've been waiting for the limited edition 3ds since 8am but according to the employee, they got this email from the corporate that WIS will be up at 2pm central for a $329.95 bundle with the system, codename steam, majora's mask, majora's mask eguide (digital), and link between worlds (digital). I personally can't afford this so I'm passing it on to people who are still looking for the system. The email also states that this will likely be the last allocation of the limited edition. Good luck people! PS I'm new at this posting stuff so sorry I can't find a way to post the picture of the printout of the email.
Why the hell would you need another copy of Majoras mask when the special edition comes with it installed??
Goddam Gamestop trying to squeeze every drop of money they can.

It doesn't.

According to this post on reddit:

Paulgandersman and myself called a few stores in our area and the reps where either outright rude and dismissive or very cordial. It sounds like the ones choosing not to pick up the phone don't want to be bothered.
I literally had a lady clerk tell me "We can't talk about this" and hung up on me.

A store 20 minutes from me is showing stock now. However, I'm at a customer site and can't exactly leave midday. This is how I missed the Rosalina amiibo too. I wouldn't be in this situation if Target didn't cancel my order. I had the opportunity to get one from Gamestop but didn't because I already had that Target order.
Is the extra stuff in the WIS bundle returnable? I already have Majora's Mask and A Link Between Worlds.
Two stores have updated as in-stock, but they're twenty minutes away and in Dallas. Sccrrreeeew Dallas roads. You could get lost there with a GPS. >_>
Evidently it was also available at Frys.com at 5AM this morning.
Can't find it anywhere on the site..
Local gamestop is processing their shipment now. Told me to call in an hour. The suspense is driving me nuts! Its like the moon is crashing down on me right now.
So Gamestop gets more units, decides to make a $330 bundle with it. If you want to trade-in a sealed copy of the game, you lose $5 on each game, meaning you get a digital game, the system, and a guide for $260.
Honestly I am not surprised!

Edit: Trading in Majora's Mask and S.T.E.A.M. for $70 isn't bad at all. If they allow you to put it towards the purchase that's actually pretty great.
That breaks down to $200 for the system, $40 for the game, and $20 for the guide... or in other words, you're paying $20 extra for a legitimately limited item. I see it as an attempt at dissuading the scalpers, and with such a thing I've no qualms.

Like they give a shit. It's nothing more than greed on their part.
I got one!!! Heading to work, will update with details shortly. My GameStop got 3 (I was second there, and I only waited 20 mins!)

It's lunch time, and I'm hungry. Peace out for now, GAF...

Damn, sorry. That sucks.
There was no one actually in the store behind me while I checked out, but as the "last person" who grabbed one at my location I definitely felt a pang of guilt knowing that others would be checking in all day and being disappointed.
Nintendo has definitely been frustrating as hell lately. There's always a chance more could show up, maybe. Hell, 24 hours ago I had absolutely 0% idea that I would have this system today.
