I didn't pre-order, but I walked into Gamestop and got a copy no problem. It was the middle of the afternoon, before school let out and no one else was even there. And there I was, so worried I wouldn't be able to get it release day cause I didn't pre-order. xD I did have to ask, because the display for it behind the counter was empty, but the guy came back with a handful of copies, so I guess they had plenty.
