Well, here's my Battle Kid 2 story. It was available last Thursday evening for roughly an hour. I quickly grabbed one and was immediately a happy camper. It shipped out on Friday and arrived at my post office on Monday morning. I checked the tracking and it showed that it was out for delivery. Mail time came, I'm always here when it comes...several packages, but no BK2. I checked the tracking that evening and it showed up as delivered. I thought maybe it had arrived at the post office after the mailman had left for his route, scanned it, and it would show up yesterday. No such luck. I stopped by the post office this morning...they're going to have him check his jeep and possibly along his route to see if he can find it. Nice guy, known him for about 10 years, never had a problem with him before, but he can be a little scatterbrained and has been known to sometimes drop off packages at the wrong destination. This is a pretty small country town and I highly doubt anyone else has a reason to hold onto it...so I'd like to think that whoever it was delivered to will scamper down to the post office, Battle Kid in hand, and say it was misdelivered. Hoping for the best but probably gonna have to stalk the Retrousb site until it's back up again.

*update* Battle Kid 2 was found alive and well in the back of his jeep. It had fallen down between the seat and the door. Definite sigh of relief. Whew.

When you opened it, was it a one year membership to the jelly of the month club?

I wouldn't worry about it, it's not like this is a limited edition kind of thing. Eventually the demand will lower as people get their copies so I don't see why you couldn't get a sealed copy at a later date if you desired.

I guess I just got lucky when I got mine 2 weeks ago. I thought it would be permanently in stock by now. Anyway it really IS worth the wait, it is seriously one of the best NES games I've ever played, its 1000 times better than the first Battle Kid. All I can think about all day now is how I wanna hurry and get home from work so I can take another try at some seemingly impossible screen! This game is really good....I'm talkin Duck Tales good!

This may have been a bad judgement call on my part, but I assumed there would be some additional cardboard or plastic to protect the box in transit for the first class option. My box has a lot of large dents in it, so it might be worth the extra for priority shipping, which in my case was nearly $20.00 extra. The printed materials look very nice otherwise.

Yea, mine was shipped in a padded mailer with some dents too.

I didn't stop to read that it was gonna be sent by an envelope...

But, in my case, it's only minor dents, so I'm not too worried about it.

Cannot believe i missed this. I am so irritated at myself. I'd kick a puppy over a football field to get the boxed version of this game.

It's estimated to be available in a couple of weeks. Just keep checking the site, I'm sure you will be able to get a copy.

lol, yeah, I have been checking retrousb periodically (once a week or so) since the day it came out and it's been sold out every time. I just checked again and it says middle of June now.
I know it's just a hobby and guys get busy, things get delayed/etc so no biggie but damn, I REALLY want to actually PLAY this one!! I'm fighting off overpaying on Ebay to have it now....patience danielson...patience....
