So here's my predicament: I went to go pre-order Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_Hearts_3D:_Dream_Drop_Distance) for the Nintendo 3DS. I was interested in getting the special (Mark of Mastery (http://gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=177328)) edition from EB Games but they informed me there were no copies left to be pre-ordered. Thinking the pack of AR cards that came with the pre-order was exclusive to their store, I went forward with the pre-order anyways.
My initial plan was to pick up my copy from EB Games with the cards, go to another store, get the Mark of Mastery edition, return my standard copy the next day, keep the cards and everyone's a winner. But upon further research I found out that the cards AREN'T exclusive to EB Games and can be gotten at other stores.
My plan after discovering that was to pre-order the special edition from Best Buy (seeing as you get 800 member points as well, equal to 10 in-store dollars) and cancel my other pre-order. But I'm not sure if the pre-order incetives are for the special edition as well. Meanwhile, as all this is going on, I discovered that at Future Shop you also get a special 3DS case with your pre-order (not sure what it looks like or if it is just an online bonus). Another concern is if I'm too late and the special edition is sold out everywhere (there are other stores in the area but these are the main electronic stores).
So faithful RFDers, that is my predicament. If someone can actually decipher what I'm asking and give me the optimal pre-order/ purchase combination that would be most ideal. I'm planning on heading back out tomorrow to finalize my pre-orders seeing as the game comes out Tuesday.
Thanks for your help.
